Actor
Dan Aykroyd made his directorial debut with this bizarre comic fantasy. Financier Chris Thorne (
Chevy Chase) hopes to impress beautiful Diane Lightson (
Demi Moore), so he invites her along for a trip to Atlantic City, with a pair of wealthy Brazilians, Fausto (
Taylor Negron) and Renalda (
Bertila Damas) tagging along for the ride. After running a stop sign in a small town just off the New Jersey turnpike, Chris and his friends are pulled over and arrested by a motorcycle cop named Denis (
John Candy). The travellers are brought before J.P. (Aykroyd), the ancient and vindictive Justice of the Peace in the very strange village of Valkevania, where minor traffic offenses are usually punished by torture or death. While Fausto and Renalda are able to escape, Chris and Diane find themselves trapped in a bizarre underground maze in which fellow tourists like themselves must fight for their lives. Keep an eye peeled for the screen debut of
Tupac Shakur, who appears as a member of the rap group
Digital Underground.
