Read the synopsis online and you’re probably right. The short, which I’ve seen once, did ring a bell when I read it. Not a straight remake, though. THE CHUMP TAKES A BUMP sounds like a combination of LOOSER THAN LOOSE and MIGHTY LIKE A MOOSE, the latter which I’m much more familiar with.
Yeah, time to revisit those Roach talkie Chase DVD’s for sure.

This is correct. I knew this and failed to mention it in my review.
