America 1998: The country is bankrupt, the oil shortage has reached critical mass, people are living in their cars, and smoking cigarettes and eating meat have become crimes. What's the president to do? Simple, hold a telethon in an effort to keep a wealthy Native-American sneaker mogul from foreclosing on some hefty loans. Hilarious (and eerily prescient) satire stars John Ritter, Harvey Korman, Fred Willard, Chief Dan George; with appearances by Elvis Costello, Meat Loaf, and George Carlin. 84 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; theatrical trailer.
