Help! (1965)

When a fan sends Ringo Starr a ceremonial ring, he finds himself hunted by a cult looking to use him for a human sacrifice. It’s disturbing how easy the rest of the Beatles are willing to sacrifice Ringo, or at least his hand, when some of the better methods for solving his predicament prove too difficult. I love the ridiculous design of the Beatles’ shared flat and the music videos that pad the runtime. It all feels like an extended episode of The Monkees, though that probably should be reversed.
