For Auld Lang Syne Marx Brothers (1994)
"Forget it. This is a shoddy 45-minute video which tries to pass itself off as a Marx Brothers tape because it provides you with six minutes of a poor reproduction of the "I'll Say She Is" re-make skit that was originally made for the 1931 trailer collection "The House That Shadows Built". The rest of the tape is poor comedy by other comedians, some of them very obscure." (Wayne)
