Off the Earth Synopsis
Nervy Ned, blackened up so he can attend a negro barbecue without an invitation, forgets to smear burned cork on his hands and is chased by the irate negroes as soon as they detect him. Washing off his make-up in a nearby stream, he gets a taste of some contraband hootch being poured out by dry agents up stream. While pepped up by the hootch he volunteers to take a trip to Mars in a cannon invented by his sweetheart's father, Professor McKerony. The projectile lands a few miles away; Ned alights and is hit by a flivver. He immediately radios back to the professor that Ford, John D. and others, including Volstead, have been there first. The professor and his party, celebrating the success of his invention, arrive at the same café wherein Ned is drinking. After a general mix-up, explanations are made and all ends well.
Striking Models Synopsis
"Off the Earth" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Striking Models" offers its own unique cult appeal.
