Bubba Ho-Tep

Coppa says: This thoroughly original movie stars Bruce Campbell as a still-alive, reclusive, and elderly Elvis, and Ossie Davis as a still-alive, African-American, and elderly JFK. They live in a rest home and, oh yeah, they spend their time battling a 3,000-year-old mummy. Played straight, this hilarious dark-comedy/sci-fi action thriller challenges David Lynch for sheer artistic weirdness.

Woodson says: The real Elvis is still alive, and JFK is alive and a black man. That was a pretty funny twist, I liked how Elvis didn't want to be Elvis anymore, and you see him break his hip and nobody knows that he is the real Elvis. It worked for me.
