I love that movie!!!!!
Actually it makes fun of a non-existent cult (that happens to be from the "far east" but has obviously British people as members). It is simply a plot device and should in no way be taken seriously (much like the rest of the movie).
Also, I love how he says "I think" as though he's not sure.
Favorite line: "You've failed jeweler."
A lot of people took it way too seriously , like a lot of things these days , it was hard to find for awhile . My favorite of all time , I've had it on VHS like forever . The pictures come from a website that is a celebration of it ,
