Review of Night Shift (1982) by Mario D. G — 11 Apr 2010
Chuck (Harry Wrinkler aka Fonz) and Bill (Michael Keaton in his movie debut) are the night shift workers in a morgue. Despite their clashing personalities, they become friends and decide to help Chuck's neighbor Belinda (Shelley Long), who works as a prostitute, and her girlfriends, by becoming their pimps: They run a successful enterprise using Bill's wacko original ideas and Bill's financial management skills.
Eventually, Chuck and Belinda fall for each other although he's engaged to the self-obsessed Charlotte (Gina Hecht) , while a couple big shot pimps are pursuing Chuck & Bill asking for tribute, and things get complicated .
.. I found this film funny & quite enjoyable in a weird way. Ron Howad did a really good job!!
