Continuity mistake: During the theatre scene, the usher puts a knife to the man's throat, in the next scene however, the man's head has now moved to the right and there was not enough time between shots for this to have occurred.

9.3/10. One of the better sketch comedy movies ever made. From the sketch of Catholic School Girls In Trouble to the theater usher doing all that stuff to the patron it's freaking hilarious. The Zuckerbergs have talent coming out their pores whereas some of us would be lucky to think up a good joke. Highly recommended.
Pennington: These are the Hartz Mountains of Asia. A terrain so rugged, so treacherous, no country will claim it.
Asquith: Worse then Detroit?
Pennington: I'm afraid so.

Answer: Detroit has long been notorious for its high crime, high unemployment, and urban blight. It's just a joke about how it's not a very pleasant place to be. Heck, the city motto is 'We hope for better things' and 'It will rise from the ashes.'
