Chalk this one up as "strangest plot synopsis ever": Elvis Presley (Bruce Campbell), living out his final days in a Texas rest home long after his "death," teams up with John F. Kennedy (Ossie Davis), whose brain has been implanted into the body of an elderly black man, to battle a rampaging undead Egyptian mummy. Warped and hilarious, the selling point for us on the DVD is a feature-length commentary provided by "the King." And for those of you still craving more Campbell, the ending credits contain a tease for a mock (we think) sequel: "Elvis returns in Bubba Nosferatu: Wrath of the She-Vampires."
