When I saw this film when it first came out, people were walking out of the theater one by one. I stayed till the end though.
What could have been a great film turned out to be a disaster. This film misses the target. There are no excuses for this, considering the star power. The thing that ruined this film(besides a badly written script)is the amount of money involved. Vincent Price dies and his estate is worth 200 million dollars. His last will and testament specifies that the various members of the family and staff(And a cab driver as well)to compete in a scavenger hunt. 200 million? Even after the game is all over, you can split up the money and still be enough for every one!!
The low point in this film is the scene where Richard Benjamin steals a set of dentures from an indian. This is the worst scene in film history. The excuse is "It's just an item on the list" This is insulting.
Don't misunderstand me-I love comedy-but it should be out of respect for people and not be at someone else's expense. Stealing another man's dentures is not showing respect. And it is wrong!
I don't know what the producers had in mind when they made this film-but they wasted a lot of talent and money on this trash!
