Super Mario Bros.
This ain't no game.
Directed by Annabel Jankel, Rocky Morton
Produced by Hollywood Pictures, Cinergi Pictures
A campy, visually bizarre action-comedy that trades the cheerful simplicity of its source material for a grimy, surreal alternate-dimension adventure.
Mario and Luigi, plumbers from Brooklyn, find themselves in an alternate universe where evolved dinosaurs live in hi-tech squalor. They're the only hope to save our universe from invasion by the dino dictator, Koopa.
