Oh Schucks....It's Schuster! is a 1989 South African film. It is one of South Africa's candid camera king, Leon Schuster's movies. ^[1] He followed it up with Oh Schucks..! Here Comes Untag, adapting the loose standing prank-style skits of Oh Schucks....It's Schuster! with a more narrative-style storyline.

Plot

In a series of short skits, Leon Schuster uses candid camera and several disguises to stitch up the general public of South Africa. Such sketches include: ^[2]

• The jumping telephone.
• The snake in the suitcase (which was used in his later film Mr Bones ).
• The Radio Jacaranda broadcast that refuses to do as is wished by the producer.
