If you loved Fat Albert, try Elvis Has Left the Building

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Elvis Has Left the Building has roughly 4.7× fewer votes than Fat Albert — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Joel Zwick, and they sit in Comedy / Family territory. If that's the register that drew you to Fat Albert, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Elvis Has Left the Building is

Somewhere between a glitter bomb and a séance, a woman’s childhood brush with Elvis resurfaces as a body count. Harmony, a cosmetics seller who can’t outrun a single memory, keeps accidentally dooming Elvis impersonators until a multicar farce lands her on the lam with an ad man whose own Elvis obsession may be the problem. Between one Hound Dog howl and the next, everybody ends up lost in Vegas.
