It's funny how the movie got slaughtered at the box office.
UHF couldn't compete with Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Ghostbusters II, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Lethal Weapon 2, Batman, License to Kill, When Harry Met Sally... Do the Right Thing and Weekend at Bernie's.
Orion went bankrupt soon after and Weird Al makes a pretty good joke about it in the special features.
He also said they treated him like a king as the movie tested really well and they thought it would get them out of debt.
Young Einstein tested just as well and flopped at the box office too.
IMO Young Einstein is the better comedy but not by much.
