In 1999, the directors and score-writer for the "Hey, Ernest!" movie franchise made a low-budget apocalyptic musical comedy about a dystopian America controlled by corporations and the church, and fought by a ragtag army of anarchist artists.

It's also the last live-action film Jim Varney appeared in. It's also the only film to feature a penis shaped pogo stick.

It's a VHS transfer, but it's worth a watch.

Three Hollywood movies were released in 1995 with internet themes: the Keanu Reeves cyberpunk film Johnny Mnemonic (with an accompanying website), The Net with Sandra Bullock, and Hackers. As well as these 3 films, I look back at William Gibson's now extinct mid-90s website, "William Gibson’s Yardshow", and the equally lost to time Johnny Mnemonic net.hunt, an online scavenger hunt. cybercultural.com/p/cyberspace #InternetHistory #90smovies
