About

Synopsis

Amazon Women on the Moon (1987) is an American comedy anthology you can watch online on iFILM, directed by five filmmakers — John Landis, Joe Dante, Carl Gottlieb, Peter Horton and Robert K. Weiss. The cast includes Arsenio Hall, Phil Hartman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Griffin Dunne and Joe Pantoliano.

The setup is a late-night TV station airing a cheesy 1950s sci-fi flick about Amazon warriors on the Moon. It keeps breaking up. Filling the static: fake commercials, spoof documentaries, absurdist sketches about dating, grief, tabloid journalism and celebrity. Each segment runs just long enough to land its joke and get out.

A gleeful takedown of American pop culture, the film pulls off something rare in anthology comedy — most of the segments actually work. Stream Amazon Women on the Moon (1987) online on iFILM.
