Based on the first fifteen minutes of this film I would say that comedy dodged a veritable heat seeking missile when DePalma decided to work exclusively in the horror genre.
That's really all I have to say but IMDB has this idiotic new 600 character minimum rule so I'm gonna do a verbal tap dance and just add that there is nothing particularly funny about a piano tuner who comes to the wrong address and is then asked to serve breakfast to the owner even if the owner is Tom Smothers. I mean I guess I could lay the blame on scenarist Jordan Crittenden for writing such mirthless crap but DePalma presumably gazed upon Crittenden's screenplay and pronounced it risible so he has to shoulder a lot of the blame. Can I stop now, IMDB minders?
