SPOOF. Audiences will love this hilarious film noir spoof. Lola Dusseldorf, a mysterious femme fatale, arrives in Chinatown at the office of Jack Fargo, a bumbling private investigator on the verge of bankruptcy. Lola has invented a plastics formula that will revolutionize the patio furniture industry and is on the run from the evil Colonel Wilberton, a spy dispatched by the Pan-Eurasian Petrochemicals Company to steal the formula. Colonel Wilberton is prepared to do anything…even employ one of the most hideous forms of torture known to man involving castor oil and a feather to obtain the formula. But before Lola and Jack can even leave the office, Colonel Wilberton arrives with his hulking bodyguard, a feather, and a bottle of castor oil. It doesn’t take long before Jack and Lola put two and two together and realize they are in a real slippery situation!
