Terry Crews, revives his Idiocracy cult favorite character President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho for a faux presidential run.
Terry Crews reprised his cult favorite character United States President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho for a faux presidential run. The Brooklyn 99 star played President Camacho in the 2006 film, Idiocracy, a science-fiction comedy that follows Joe Bauers after he wakes up in a dystopian future following 500 years in cryogenic hibernation. He soon learns that he has become the smartest man in the world as humanity's intelligence has significantly decreased.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Crews recently took to social media as Camacho to share a campaign video for a faux presidential run for the 2024 U.S. election. Check out the video below: Crews invites his followers to join him at Banger’s Sausage House and Beer Garden on Monday night for his campaign celebration where they will "party like it's 2524."Why Idiocracy Continues to Resonate With Audiences Although Idiocracy is now considered a cult classic, the film was nearly doomed from the start. Due to backlash from the movie's sponsors, director Mike Judge's comedy was released in only 130 theaters across six cities within the United States.
Conceived as a social satire on the state of the world in 2006, Idiocracy touches on capitalism, consumerism, rapid overpopulation, and the effect of inane media on society. Many of these issues continue to be discussed by many today as social media platforms have become the driving source of information.
Idiocracy's on-the-nose humor and over-the-top cartoonish characters still ring true today. As social media becomes more relevant in people's lives, with consumerism at the heart of the information flow, the film's skewed perspective acts as a cautionary tale. With several recent U.S. presidential candidates feeling the need to prove themselves to their base with loud political stunts, perhaps Idiocracy's President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho will fit right in.
