Wasn't that the worst? Actually, if you want another "must see" Joe Don Baker MST3K movie, you've got to see "Final Justice." He stars as Sherriff Thomas Jefferson Geronimo III, and he is called upon to transport a prisoner to Italy.
He wears ridiculous garb in that movie, too, and for some reason the Italian authorities allow him to assume his powers over there.
Sheriff...man, oh man!
The fools!
