QUEST FOR THE EGG SALAD seems to be Chris Seaver's way of showing he could make no budget comedies in genres other than the schlock horror he is best known for, i.e. his appalling FILTHY MCNASTY trilogy. This one's a would-be fantasy epic, shot in the woods in the LORD OF THE RINGS style, and told via a framing device narrative copied from THE PRINCESS BRIDE.
Unfortunately, it turns out to be just as appallingly awful as Seaver's other films, albeit slightly less offensive. Don't get me wrong, there's still plenty of bad taste material here, it's just not as bad as seen elsewhere. The whole film consists of non-actors dressed in rubber costumes and saying dumb dialogue in the woods. It's very lousy, and yes, you guessed it, the dumb Teen Ape character has another cameo.
