One More Reason Why Buck Henry Sucks...
With all the talent in this cast, only the writing and directing could produce such a horrible movie with a funny, basic premise. But this is what Buck Henry does.
Easily the most boring guest star of the early SNL series, sadly more than once. He also gave us Is There Sex After Death?.
He wrote some truly bizarre screenplays such as "To Die For" and "The Graduate." I think both succeeded despite the writing. He was a writer for "Get Smart" but again that was all Don Adams. He directed "Heaven Can Wait" but honestly how hard is it to direct a remake?
Indeed the best Buck Henry moment was when John Belushi actually nailed him with a Samurai Sword during one of the Samurai skits on SNL.
