Yes that is right. This is a guilty pleasure movie of mine. I don't know why I find it so funny but I do. I love the cast Julia Sweeney as the ever androgynous Pat, Dave Foley as its sweetie Chris, and Charles Rocket as Kyle who becomes obsessed with finding out what Pat "really" is. Also starring Kathy Griffin as a neighbor who is easily annoyed by Pat.
In my opinion one of the funnier and unseen SNL features. It is a shame that we will never really know about Pat, but it will always be fun to keep on guessing.
Did anyone else like this 1994 flick?
PS What has ever happened to Julia Sweeney, I know she had cancer and did a one woman show about it, I think, or maybe her brother had cancer. Anyway I haven't seen her in anything in a really long time.

She did, as what? I just watched that the other day and I don't remember seeing her?

Julia Sweeney plays the garage owner that Jules, Vincent & The Cleanup Guy take the bloody car to...a small part, but definitely in there towards the end.
After her cancer treatment, she created a one-woman retrospective of her brother's illness [he died of cancer while she was in treatment], her own illness, and the family dynamic...it was eventually filmed and I caught it on the Independent Film Channel...at the end, Quentin Tarantino comes on stage and gives her roses...he was then listed in the credits as "Directed by..."

she's the girl at the salvage yard where The Wolf takes Vinnie and Jules to right before they go eat breakfast.

Okay I remember her now. I knew she had cancer. Her show that she did was called God Said Ha!

Pat was a good SNL character for a skit...not sure it could be sustained for a whole movie, but it worked for many others.
"God Said Ha" was very touching...she worked through her own issues to present a humorous statement about making lemonade from lemons.
The last thing I saw her in was a "Sex in the City" episode where she played a nun with breast cancer.
