Cheech and Chong's first "hit" movie is a popular comedy for the red-eyed generation. The outrageous 
pair begin their search for green pastures and good grass. After several wacky adventures and close 
shaves ensue, the comedic duo end up at L.A.'s Roxy Theatre to perform a hilarious final scene. 
Without giving away too many clues, it can be said that a pink tutu and a red quaalude are involved.

==========

Cheech and Chong meet up by chance on the highway somewhere in California. They go in search of some 
dope and are accidentally deported to Mexico where in their desperation to get home they agree to 
drive a van back to the States so they can get back in time for a gig they are due to play. Unaware 
of the properties from which the van is constructed they make their way back having aquired a couple 
of female hitch-hikers whilst all the time avoiding the cops whom they are not even aware are 
following them.

==========

Two directionless musicans, a Chicano guitarist (Cheech Marin) and a White drummer (Tommy Chong), 
meet up in a chance encounter and embark on a series of odd adventures, including being the unwitting 
partcipants of a bizarre marijuana smuggling plot.
