If you want to see a hilarious movie I recommend that you see the movie Zapped. It's starts out when high school student Barney (Scott Baio from Charles and Charge and Joani and Chachi) is running experiments on mice [in one experiment he gives mice whiskey and sees the effects on how they swim] There is an explosion in his laboratory and he somehow gains telekinetic powers. His friend find many outlets for his newfound powers such as, gambling, making people's clothes fly off, freaking his mother out with a flying dummy, messing with various things at an amusement park, winning a baseball game and other fun pranks. His funny co-stars are enjoyable in themselves; Scatman Crothers (the black dude in the Shining) plays his snoopy baseball coach with a love for the ladies and whiskey, and his best friend Willie Ames (from Eight is Enough) who uses his friend’s telekinesis for getting a girl and gambling.

One of my favorite scenes is after a teacher discovers there are pot plants growing in the lab. Barney and his girlfriend rush to hide the plants. They throw the pot in the school's incinerator, I'm not sure why a school would have one, and the baseball coach comes in and opens it up. He breaths in all of the smoke from the plants and goes for the trip of his life.

If you haven't guessed already this movie is filled with tons of funny scenes, and laughable 80's clothing. But it's not just a movie about joking around, it's a movie about two friends, a love story (between Barney and Bernadet), and an adventure about what a kid who magically obtained telekinesis. If you found any of this comical go out and see it!
