This is also known as "The Day The Earth Got Stoned" but the original title is what I first saw this as was back in 1984 on the USA Network on their show Night Flight.
This laugh out loud film is comprised of tons of clips from old Republic serials and then redubbed. The story revolves around a madman called "The Lightning Bug" that is trying to conquer the world by using ear blasting rock music.
This is an absolute masterpiece of comedy done by Phil Proctor and Peter Bergman from the Firesign Theater group. D.J. MG Kelly does the voice of the Lightning Bug and it's a hoot.
If you want a good time and to laugh a hell of a lot you need to see this little gem. I was very shocked it suddenly appeared on TUBI, but I am very thankful as well. It had been 39 years since I last saw it.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! ROCK AND ROLL FOREVER.
