Scavenger Hunt is a classic 1979 comedy movie with an all-star cast that includes Richard Benjamin, James Coco, Scatman Crothers, and a host of other famous actors. The movie is set in Hollywood and follows the story of a wealthy game-maker who has just passed away, leaving behind his massive fortune to his heirs. However, before they can inherit the money, the heirs must first complete a series of bizarre and outrageous scavenger hunt challenges.

The movie is full of hilarious twists and turns as the various heirs compete against each other to win the ultimate prize. Along the way, they encounter a variety of oddball characters and obstacles, including a group of feminist activists, a kleptomaniac nurse, and a team of rival scavenger hunters.

The movie is known for its slapstick humor and silly sight gags, including an exploding limousine, a runaway wheelchair, and a group of over-enthusiastic roller skaters. The comedy is also helped along by the excellent performances of the cast, who each bring their own unique flavor to the film.

Richard Benjamin plays the lead character, a bumbling but likable underdog who is determined to win the scavenger hunt and prove himself to his snobbish fiancée. James Coco is hilarious as the eccentric lawyer who oversees the scavenger hunt and revels in the chaos it creates. Scatman Crothers is also a standout as the wise-cracking chauffeur who provides some of the movie's funniest moments.

Overall, Scavenger Hunt is a fun and lighthearted comedy that is perfect for a lazy weekend afternoon. It's not an intellectual masterpiece, but it doesn't pretend to be – it's simply a silly and entertaining romp that will leave you laughing out loud. If you're looking for a good movie to watch with friends or family, Scavenger Hunt is definitely worth putting on your list.
