To flesh out the story, an alligator also makes a cameo appearance.

Bad performances -- both in front of and behind the camera -- abound in this low-budget quickie.

Audience Reviews for Super Fuzz

Feb 04, 2010

There are actually a couple of different versions of the early 80's cable classic Super Fuzz floating around out there, but the one that's the most prominently available is the version entitled Super Snooper, which contains its own theme song, extended scenes and alternate dialogue. If you haven't seen this little gem, do yourself a favor and get a copy of it. This is insanely cheesy cop flick goodness with a side of ridiculousness. It's one of those movies that's so bad that it's good, and I can totally understand why it was a lot of folks' favorite film when they were kids. Everything from talking to fish, telekinesis, unnatural strength - you name it, he's got it. This movie is ridiculously fun, and if you can check your brain at the door, you'll enjoy it.

Paradise Alley: I don't care what he is! Who are you and where's Sylvius? Dave Speed: I know who I am and I know who you are. But do you know who he is? Funny Movie, with lots of fist fight and super Humor.

Dave Speed LOVES beans, flower pedels and bubble gum,but he hates Paradise, swimming and the color RED.
