This review is from: Barry McKenzie Holds His Own (VHS Tape)
Dame Edna Everidge is known to US audiences now because of her various TV specials. Here she debuts as "Dame" (in the first BM film, she was just Mrs.). On a trip to London with her nephew, Barry (aka, Bazza, etc.), she is mistaken for Queen Elizabeth by some Transylvania vampires on the same flight. The rest of the film recounts her abduction and eventual rescue by Bazza and mates.
The film, made by an aussi, delights in portraying and exaggerating every aussi sterotype and doesnt leave England unlampooned either. If you like Monty Python, then you will probably love this. In fact, it is believed that their famous aussi lampoon sketch known as the "Bruce" sketch was inspired, at least in part by the first Barry McKenzie film, "The Adventures of Barry McKenzie"

Seems like a blue print or forerunner to so many other buddy comedys and such that came after all over including USA.. Barry is original.
