J-Men Forever
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
J-Men Forever is a 1979 film by Philip Proctor and Peter Bergman of the Firesign Theatre. Using film clips from Republic serials, it tells the story of the Lightning Bug (played by various villains from the various serials; his changing appearance is explained as rapid costume changes) and his attempt to take over the world, using sex, drugs and rock and roll. His first victims are 'square' record moguls Lawrence Milk, Jive Davis, and 'Scream' Dorsey, who are either hypnotized or otherwise prodded into killing themselves (except for Dorsey, whose car is simply taken over then run off a cliff). The Bug, his henchmen and henchwomen are opposed by the J-Men, a group of government agents hired by the legendary J. Eager Believer. Besides the Chief and his bumbling sidekick, Agent Barton, the J-Men include Agents Spike, Claire and Lance, Rocket Jock, the Lone Star, the Caped Madman, Spy Swatter, Sleeve Coat, Juicy Withers, and Admiral Balzy.
