I've laughed more at funerals

Simply one of the worst Aussie movies ever, and that's saying something.

Paul Hogan and Michael Caton star as a couple of mens men who stumble across a wacky idea. Vince (Hogan) is facing some business tax problems. One day he discovers there are some great tax cuts for gay couples. Desperate, he asks his buddy Ralph (Caton) to pretend they are living together and are gay so they can get the required tax relief. Sounds funny right? Wrong. You'd think these two Aussie comedy legends could pull this off with ease, but working with a pathetic script some homophobe probably wrote in 1962 made it tough. There were plenty of unbelievable scenarios thrown in eg Ralph's visiting daughter, a community dance, all of which fell flat on their face. I know of a few older people who appreciated it, but anyone under 39 who sees this will probably start giving themselves paper cuts just to break the boredom.
