1983 screwball cameo starring Dan Aykroyd. A laid back college professor (Aykroyd) gets mixed up with a pimp and his calls girls when, to get out of debt, the pimp creates a fictitious and flamboyant mobster, "Doctor Detroit", and Aykroyd takes on the persona.

Trailer:

Howard Hesseman, Donna Dixon and Fran Drescher co-star. James Brown also has a cameo.

Mine came in the mail yesterday. I already watched it. Brought back a lot of memories. The weird way he walked, talked and some of the lines. Fun.

I saw a guy on Twitter who was an 80's fan tweeting while watching this movie for the first time. It was kind of funny. He said he didn't know exactly what he was watching. When the scene came with the doc doing his funky dance while James Brown sang on the stage, he about to lost it. Lol. "What is this?!?!" he kept saying.
