Based on the hit Broadway musical!

Tarnation! You're in for a passel of fun as Al Capp's beloved comic strip comes to life in Li'l Abner, a raucous film musical based on the popular Broadway hit.

The residents of the hillbilly town of Dogpatch are a-fussin' and a-fuedin' when their beloved town - deemed the most useless community in America - is chosen by the government to serve as ground zero for A-bomb testing. Them's fightin' words - so the citizenry rises to challenge amidst bouncy songs and rollicking dance numbers. A splendid cast featuring Stubby Kaye as "Marryin' Sam" and Julie Newmar as "Stupefyin' Jones" makes this bright and lively musical a heap o' entertainment for all. Yee-haw!
