The most amazing part of this film for me is that it was done by the Toronto Second City crew. That means it stars Eugene Levy, John Candy, Joe Flaherty, and Harold Ramis. Just outstanding cheese.

Eugene Levy, John Candy, Joe Flaherty, and Harold Ramis.

TIL! So Ramis was Zeke, huh? I thought he did a good job with that, but Candy to me was unexpectedly great as Den. Really captured the spirit of a young man transported in to a big, muscled figure.
