Meet the Deedles

(Buena Vista)

Identical twins Stew and Phil Deedle are the surf-bum equivalent of the dimwits from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. After they get busted for skipping school on their 18th birthday, their millionaire dad ships them off to a survival camp in Yellowstone Park. Amid political jokes, bikini-clad babes, and fart gags, they parade around as Park Ranger rookies and run into psycho Dennis Hopper trying to steal Old Faithful on its billionth birthday. Bart the Bear (Oscar presenter and star of The Edge) has a small part.
