The "true" story of what really became of Elvis Presley. We find Elvis as an elderly resident in an East Texas rest home, who switched identities with an Elvis impersonator years before his "death," then missed his chance to switch back. He must team up with JFK and fight an ancient Egyptian mummy for the souls of their fellow residents.

would you like a ding-dong? .. oh, i don't mean mine. i mean a chocolate ding-dong... 'course, mine would be chocolate now that ive been dyed
might need to do some further research on how much talk about elvis' penis i can handle in a movie. we had to have come pretty close to the limit here.
... is it too late to write in ossie davis as jfk for the best casting oscar?

Elvis (Bruce Campbell) and a race switched JFK (Ossie Davis) reside in a Texas nursing home where they do battle with an arse munching Ancient Egyptian Mummy.
Director Don Coscarelli (of Phantasm fame) adapts this Joe R Landsdale short story, effectively taking a National Enquirer concept and fleshing it out to be fun (and funny) low budget horror with some quite moving commentary on the dignity of the elderly and the importance of maintaining a purpose, even in our later years.
Much like its protagonist this does dawdle at a slow pace, but I can appreciate this doesn’t just touch on the cliche Elvis elements such as the jumpsuit and shades, but also has some quite poignant inner dialogue about his relationship with Priscilla and Lisa Marie. There is also a lot of horny but impotent Elvis references. So prepare yourself for that.
Ella Joyce is excellent in what can only be described as a hot and sassy version of Nurse Ratched.

Watch this film whilst busting on Mia’s bed, had no clue what was going on because of this. So I will have to rewatch with Sam
