It seems Randy Quaid may not have been acting in the movie Independence Day—he may just be that crazy.
The conspiracy theorist and his wife, Evi, took a spare moment from being their kooky litigious, bill-jumping pseudo-celebrity fugitives from justice selves to record a new video PSA filled with – what else? – brand new paranoid rantings against “The Man.”
It’s hard to believe it’s only been five years since the Quaids first claimed a shadowy group of Hollywood spooks they dubbed “star whackers” were out to get them, triggering and justifying an increasingly bizarre series of legal shenanigans and felony charges ranging from stiffing a Southern California luxury hotel for $10,000 to resisting arrest in Marfa, Texas, and, most recently, being rejected by the government of Canada. (Here’s a partial timeline of their paranoid, mostly hotel and house-squatting-related escapades.)
Quaid has been relatively quiet of late by Randy Quaid standards since he and Evi have been stuck in Canada and unable to return to the United States, where felony warrants are out for their arrests. (Fear not: the couple is reportedly suing Secretary of State John Kerry to come home.)
In the video posted today, Quaid wears the very same palm tree-adorned Hawaiian shirt he sported as a schizo pilot who believes he was abducted by aliens in 1996’s Independence Day, one of the blockbusters he says he helped congloms like Rupert Murdoch’s NewsCorp. and Warner Bros. make billions from, getting only personal persecution in return. The Golden Globe-winning actor rails against Murdoch, Warner Bros., Village Roadshow Chairman/CEO and ex-WB exec Bruce Berman (who “stole my house”), the New York Post, and TMZ, which he’s renamed “#PMC - police media corruption.”
And that’s all before the now-bushy-bearded Quaid screams, “Rupert, you wanna fuck me? I’m gonna fuck you,” hands Evi a Murdoch mask, and energetically simulates sex with her yelling, “I’m baaaack!” (his Independence Day line) as a dog howls in agreement by his feet.
Watch the insanity here:
