raspberry indeed

novapsycheComcast's On Demand currently has a flick called American Raspberry (1977) in its Free Movies section.
It's in the vein of Amazon Women on the Moon, and much of the flick is funny with the added bonus of '70s nostalgia. However, there were two or three jokes that just went beyond the pale. One of the very first sketches parodies assassination/sniping ala Death Race 2000. Amazed as I was to see such material unearthed in the current political environment, I was just stunned that anyone at any time thought that the subject could engender a joke, at least in that context.
