Chop Stix

About This Movie

So, 'Chop Stix' is one of those quirky gems from the late '70s that really captures a certain offbeat comedy vibe. The film follows this young girl who inherits a mansion but also a hefty tax bill. It's kind of a wild ride as she teams up with her aunt, who operates a high-class escort service, and the dynamic between them is just a hoot. The pacing is a bit uneven, but there’s something charming about its rawness. You get a mix of practical effects and real locations that lend this oddball authenticity. The performances are a mixed bag, but they manage to pull off the humor and eccentricities well, making it distinctive in its own right.

This film has seen limited releases and is a bit of a rarity in collector circles, often overshadowed by other comedies of the era. Original prints are scarce, and even VHS copies can be hard to come by, which adds to its allure. There's a niche interest for fans of oddball comedies, and while it may not have the strongest cult following, it certainly stands out for its bizarre premise and execution.
