Description

Well, the summer season is starting and that has got us thinking about vacation! No, we aren’t talking about *those* vacation movies but we are returning to one of our all-time favorite funnymen, the immortal John Candy, to talk about two slightly more obscure 1980s summer vacation comedies! We are discussing 1985’s SUMMER RENTAL and then THE GREAT OUTDOORS (co-starring Dan Ackroyd) from 1988! It’s fun in the sun with one of comedy’s greats!
