Blue
Velvet Elvis
Elvis
Shortliver stars as Elvis Blue, renowned curbside artist of paintings
on blue velvet. He is a man obsessed with velvet paintings. Known mostly
for his blue velvet paintings of kittens with big eyes and sad clowns,
Elvis is a cult figure among the beatniks and winos of downtown Moose Head
Maine. Enter Kibble O'Jerkins, a mysterious woman who once owned the only
Denny's in Antarctica. She wants to rule over all of Maine with her army
of angry, heavily medicated miniature poodles. Of course, why anyone would
want to live in Maine, let alone rule over it is beyond me. I mean, if
you've ever been to Maine than you know that the only things up there are
moose, trees, dirt and rocks. Not much of a kingdom, really. But this film
is frightening nonetheless. Directed by Cloggy Winthrop-Spigot, a former
English orthodontist (There is such a thing? Gee, next you'll tell me that
the English actually know how to use dental floss too!), this tale of suspense,
intrigue, and horror is most impressive in cinematography and approach.
Using a new camera technique in which a crack addicted spider monkey shakes
the camera violently every five minutes or so, giving the film a realistic,
gritty feel, the movie offers the viewing audience no real chance of discerning
much of anything that is happening in the film. And both Elvis and Inbora
Ooops, who portrays Kibble, give almost believable performances. Shocking,
distressing and disturbing, this movie is sure to become a classic among
poodle lovers everywhere.
ELIAN
What could be more
frightening than the story of young Elian? What indeed! How about the story
of Elian set to music? That's right – it's ‘Elian the Musical’. This
true tale follows the exploits of little Elian, an evil fairy from the
land of Lugarvermelhomaumásdecoisas whose sole reason for existence
is to savor free enterprise, bring down the price of canned meat, create
international irritation and erode the brains of TV viewers everywhere.
What does this mean? It means that after watching this film you'll not
only want to take little Elian out and pummel him with bags of rotting
cheese, but you'll also want to hunt down his extended American ‘family’
and make them eat paste and sand. Best part of this film is the musical
score. Composed by Yawn Villitbe Obersoon, each character is represented
by a specific noise: listen for the sound of cash registers to represent
little Elian, a screeching chimp as Janet Reno and the flushing of a toilet
for Fidel Castro.
End
Of Gays
Why does Satan always
seem to have difficulty killing people when it's absolutely necessary?
Is there really some serious issue with eradicating flamboyantly gay billionaire
playboy, Dibbov Quahog from the face of the earth? What, Satan doesn't
know how to use a fully-loaded semi-automatic? And if you were to judge
solely by this movie, you'd get the impression that Satan is one giant
idiot. The fact that Dibbov runs around in a frilly pink ballerina costume,
spouts gushy, romantic poetry at the drop of a hat, and calls everyone
‘Sweetie’ is enough to make ME want to hurt this guy. But all that aside,
this movie is terrifying. And also unsettling in it's blatantly daring
view of gay men pretending to be straight in their quest for conquering
Satan's domain and turning the massive hordes of evil into flaming poofs.
The fact that Satan doesn't want to have his vile minions suddenly turned
into show tune singing hairdressers causes the Prince of Darkness to plot
a sadistically malicious plot. His target is the head of the gay conspiracy,
Dibbov. What ensures is a bloody battle of gay versus evil. The blood spattered
fight scenes are graphically realistic. One such screen gem is a scene
in which one of Dibbov devotees thrashes a lower demon with size 12 Gucci
pumps while doing the entire last half of ‘Cabaret’ in mime. It's classic
horror cinema at it best. And watch for a cameo appearance by none other
than our very own Flagg, as an accident-prone homeless guy who always winds
up under the wheels of a bus.
Freaky
Friday The 13th
Freaky Friday the
13th is a movie about a mother, a daughter, and a psychotic mass murdering
chimp named Lou. They all live in a delightful little house with a white
picket fence, in a delightful neighborhood, in a truly delightful midwestern
town. It's just delightful. Mother works as a dog food taster. Daughter
is a delusional whack-o who believes she's part of the allied troops fighting
the German Third Reich in WWII. And Lou just hangs around the house and
watches Jerry Springer all day. Their lives are simply delightful. And
dull. Yes, very, very dull. Then one delightful day, Lou snaps. Since this
happens about halfway through the film, the audience must endure the torment
of watching endless shots of Lou sitting on the couch drinking a can of
frozen orange juice concentrate or daughter Scabby talking about building
a blimp so that she can fight the Nazis. The truly scary thing here is
that none of these hapless actors, including Lou the chimp, portrayed wonderfully
here by drunken child actor Fizzbomb McStig, seem to have the slightest
clue that they're participating in one of the most horrible pieces of cinematic
dung ever made. You'd think that McStig, an international alcoholic child
superstar, would have read this horrible script and known better than to
play a festering killer primate. But perhaps he's illiterate. Or perhaps,
seeing as he's still in third grade, he never learned rudimentary reading
skills. Or, more plausibly, he's just too flagrantly drunk. Who knows?
All I know is that I question the relevance of this movie.
I
Know What You Did In My Bushes Last Summer
This story centers
on a group of high school kids all in their mid 30s and what they did one
night to Mr. Lardlumps’ rose garden. This films begs the question, why
are there so many middle aged actors in Hollywood playing teenagers? And
who really likes movies about projectile vomit? Beats this little monkey,
but then, I digress. What passes for a plot here is this: kids go out and
drink a concoction of gin, gasoline and Tang while singing the Mentos TV
commercial theme. This somehow conjures up an evil imp, played here by
deaf mute actor Shoddysnot Guggenscooter. About an hour later, they spew
their guts out in Mr. Lardlumps’ bushes, covering his lawn in viscous,
evilly enhanced vomit. Apparently conjuring up malevolent critters and
puking up your lower intestines passes for fun in this sleepy midwestern
town. But once again, I digress. The concoction of vomit and lower intestine
comes alive while the malicious imp jumps around absurdly and makes grunting
sounds. He has no real dialogue, seeing as he's a deaf mute. That's some
really good attributes to have when you're a Hollywood star – not being
able to hear or speak or act. Oh there I go again, digressing... Anyway,
this movie, aside from being one of the most disgusting movies of this
summer, is also one of the most upsetting. I mean if a crippled guy can
make 2 million a movie, why can't a cute little monkey like me make that
much? Oh sorry. I'm digressing again...
Kiss
My Ass E.R.
Before George Clooney
single-handedly brought down the Batman franchise, he starred in this horrific
tale of death, havoc and the undead. Kiss My Ass ER, indeed! This movie
sure didn't help launch Clooney’s smirk laden career, although he is more
believable in this role than, say, a giant slug would have been. Clooney
plays Stalin Grubb, a former ER nurse, who, after a sex change operation
goes on a rampage of criminal mayhem and murder. Graphic violence ensures.
Grubb and his brother Stupid, played by village idiot Quimby Tormentino,
stumble into a nasty bed and breakfast run by an ancient old hag, Rogaine,
who also happens to be an amateur surgeon in her spare time. Her specialty
is making blood flavored sugar cookies out of fresh human kidneys. Will
Grubb and Stupid get out before she harvests their delicious kidneys? Do
human innards really make scrumptious snack treats? And how do you tell
a decrepit hag like Rogaine that she's not only been dead for a few thousand
years but she's really lacking in the personal hygiene area? This movie
answers all these questions and much, much more. Written by trained ferrets,
and filmed entirely by chimps, this film is a paramount of terrifying suspense
and horror. Check out my role as Rogaine’s evil
monkey sidekick. I almost got an award nomination for best supporting
monkey, but they don't have that category so I didn't get it. But if they
did, man, I'm sure I'd win me a big-ass trophy! That's what I'm talking
about!
Lake
Passive
Lake Passive. Lake
Boring. Lake Why-was-this-movie-ever-made? You'll be asking yourself this
over and over again throughout this study in tormentation. Viewing this
movie is like watching paint dry. Famous professional mannequin Grubsicle
Flomaggly plays Flapjack Brambly, a stranger with parasites: Tapeworm to
be exact. That's about the scariest thing in this movie – his intestinal
vermin. After swimming in Lake Passive, Flapjack develops a bad case of
tapeworm. You'd think he would have taken a look at the brackish water
and said to himself, “Gee this water looks pretty unsavory”, but no. He's
that much of an idiot. What else happens? Nothing! Written by novelist
Poophiney Jeek, the writer with an 80 IQ, this movie is filled with more
hack dialogue than a Drew Barrymore interview. Take these gems for instance:
Flapjack’s girlfriend Hammi Cracklefak “I only want what's fair!” Flapjack
“I'm not interested in what's fair. I'm only interested in things that
make my head look bigger.” Uh huh. I've read more interesting banter off
a cereal box. We haven't seen this much bad, hammy acting since Sylvester
Stallone in Judge Dredd. Rent this one if you want to cure your insomnia.
Marty
Shelby's Frankenstein
Little is known
about Marty ‘Diaper Face’ Shelby, the late social leper and writer. And
you know what? That's probably a good thing. Shelby tries to cash in on
the Frankenstein franchise by throwing his two pennies into the pot. He
is nowhere near as successful, although to his credit, this could have
been a far worse movie than it is. I mean, this isn't as bad as Battlefield
Earth – Shelby at least has that to his credit. Enter Frankenstein, the
monster who made the most delicious breakfast foods this side of Aunt Jemimah,
Queen of Pancakes. He has been resurrected by none other than Jason
X, a radioactive, fanatical alien with a hankering for world domination.
Like that's something new. We haven't seen an acting stretch like this
one since Marlon Brando played a really fat guy. But nonetheless, Jason
gives a spiffy performance as himself. Having irradiated Frankenstein back
to life, Jason makes the monster go out and buy him some beer and a couple
of salted nut rolls. But when Frankenstein enters the local 7-11 he is
horrified to see that the Slim Jims all have expiration dates of January
1st, 1988. This sends Frankenstein into a fit of rage. After destroying
the 7-11, he goes off in search of the remains of his shattered life. He
tries to locate his old nemesis Aunt Jemimah in the phone book, only to
be spotted by the neighborhood police who promptly open fire on his green
ass. Upon running into a grocery store, Frankenstein animates the frozen
waffles into deadly killing machines. As police fight off the quilted bread
products, Frankenstein continues to work his treacherous ways by breathing
life into all the breakfast treats thus creating lethal, homicidal devices
of yummy breakfast goodness. When Jason finds out that not only is he not
getting any beer and salted nut rolls, but that his Frankenstein monster
has popped a cerebral membrane, he skips town in his shiny spaceship. Frankenstein
is taken down with some fresh strawberry preserves and a flame-thrower
and the town feasts on his bloated, fiendish remains for days.
The
Milk Carton Project
Her reputation is
legendary. She is Spanky,
Onionhead of the Everglades. Only fools cross her path. To experience Spanky’s
wrath is to feel the power of the dark forces of the underworld as they
make a giant pot of evil jumbo with lots of evil cayenne pepper. Sure,
she looks cute. She looks harmless even. But that's just a facade for the
fiery madness that engulfs the Spanky. But not everyone is bright
enough to heed the dire warnings. After seeing Spanky’s really cute ‘Missing’
picture on that side of a milk carton, a trio of mentally challenged amateur
(re: so bad they can't get any money) filmmakers journey to the swamps
of Funnybone, Florida to track, and they hope, capture the elusive Spanky
on film. Now let me just say that if I go into the murky swamps of the
Everglades and I start hearing high pitched, unearthly screams from off
in the distance, I'm not sticking around to find out the who, what, where
scenario. Anyone who's ever seen a horror movie knows that. Self-preservation,
that's where it's at, baby. But for some reason these morons not only stick
around, they taunt Spanky by singing Spice Girls songs and mooning the
camera. This movie stars Spanky as Spanky, and was directed by Protozoa
Finch who was asleep during most of the filming. It is also one of the
scariest, and cheapest, films this summer. Made with only $3.00 and a roll
of duct tape, this movie makes Roger Corman’s films look over budget. I
give it two thumbs up! Well, I would if I had opposable thumbs...
Pitch
Back
An evil genius transfers
his evil soul into a child's pitch back. One would hope that this is an
accident, seeing how a pitch back is hardly the scariest of children's
games. I mean, he could have transferred himself into one of those lawn
darts things, or a water slide or an invisible dog with all those gross
internal organs and stuff or something cool. But a pitch back? What kind
of horror is that? So by doing this really stupid thing, evil genius Hammeup
Dathorse proves that he's not really that much of a genius in the first
place. Anyway, Dathorse has a plan that involves terrorizing children.
I guess that means that a pitch back is capable of terrorizing kids. Especially
kids who don't know how to throw a baseball. At least that was as close
as I came to actually understanding what was going on. After about twenty
minutes of listening to Dathorse laugh while the camera panned to a moose
head mounted on the wall, I have to tell you, I just didn't know what was
going on. And if I did, I think I might have been indignant. So while this
was going on I got up and made myself a sandwich. It was a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich and boy was it really good. After that I took a nap.
When I woke up Dathorse was still laughing only now he was the pitch back.
Like a Venus flytrap he was gobbling up kids, but they kept getting stuck
in the netting. This guy/pitch back thing is spitting out bone fragments
and ingesting human flesh like Louie Anderson at a pie eating contest.
There is more blood splattered and bones broken here than at a redneck
wedding. Dathorse is only stopped when a pack of wild dogs urinates on
him. Apparently he had taken every precaution except protecting himself
against dog pee. While the buffoons in the movie believe that Dathorse
is dead after being doused in puppy piddle, we the audience are left to
believe that it's not over. Oh joy. Maybe next time Dathorse can come back
as lump of cat litter. I can hardly wait for the sequel.
Stamos-itis
John Stamos. Just
the name scares me half to death. John Stamos. He is a man whose singing
is by far worse than his wretched acting. John Stamos. He who is so repulsively
hideous that small children run from him. John Stamos. He scares me. He
really scares me. John Stamos. If you say his name 12 times while spinning
around in a circle really fast, you'll have visions of the devil. John
Stamos. John Stamos plays John Stamos, a washed-up, talentless actor/pop
star and a giant lump of fleshly Cro-Magnon soft tissue. After getting
sticks thrown at him by local children, Stamos develops an evil plan to
take over the world by turning the unwary populace of Hamburger Helper
Village into exact duplicates of his sorry-assed self. The procedure is
called Stamos-itis: a slow, painful tormentation that renders the victim
dim-witted, rancid and incontinent. Stamos's evil plan is to let loose
this horde of mutated freaks and go to Hollywood to jump-start his pathetic
career. Not a small task considering just how deplorable his career was.
The only one to catch onto this horrible plot is Hajji Flecks the illiterate
owner of the local flea circus. Being that Hajji is a festering slab of
pulpy flesh himself, the local authorities do not take him, or his highly
trained and extremely sophisticated fleas, seriously. Its up to Hajji to
make things right. The gripping final sequence where Hajji is pitted against
a village full of Stamos beings is truly one of the most frightening in
modern cinema. This is a true horror gem. And don't forget to check out
the hauntingly groovy soundtrack by the Burning Kells.
Toastbusters
Toast has never
been so sinister, so evil, so completely without conscious and so deadly!
Witness the horror as yummy toast, oh so harmless to look at, oh so delicious
to eat, mutine and begin wreaking havoc on the unwitting citizens of a
small Canadian town. And what do you do when breakfast food turns ugly?
Who will take care of the general populous when lightly cooked bread products
go on a murderous rampage? Who are you going to call? Well, the doomed
morons in this film called the Toastbusters. But not before scrumptious
toasted goods broke into the local grocery store and liberated all the
frozen foods. Not before the delightfully toasted bread smashed all the
windows in the corner deli and freed every item of meat, cheese and produce.
And what of all these foodstuffs? Well they where mad as hell upon their
release and bent on destruction. This movie has vivid scenes of food-generated
violence. Witness as tasty whole-wheat toast chases some elderly women
down the street. Observe as deli meat accosts school children in broad
daylight. See
dairy products gone bad. Oh the madness! Oh the mayhem. By the time
the Toastbusters get on the scene, things are looking pretty bleak. But
have no fear! With sophisticated modern weaponry the Toastbusters go to
work subduing first the minor food threats like ham and Vienna sausage.
Then onto the bigger stuff – the frozen waffles and cans of juice concentrate.
Until all that is left is the dreaded, yummy toast! Can the Toastbusters
fry this Hell spawn toasted goodness into crumb filled oblivion? I almost
couldn’t bear to watch. A deliciously decadent horror classic that's not
for those with lactose intolerance.
Urban
Outfitters
Once upon a time
in the land of Dairy Queen, a group of insipid trolls make evil designer
clothes. Why? Because they were tired of living under bridges and being
repressed by ‘The Man’. Or at least that's what I got out of this very
chilling movie about designer duds so evil, so wretched, so un-cool! Wear
these garments and pay the price! A price that is extracted from victims
with blood! Filmed in the scenic remains of the Chernobyl nuclear plant,
this magnificent horror movie has some of the most terrifying and memorable
special effects since ‘Frankenstein:
The Man Who Made Awesome Pancakes’ (a true classic tale of horror).
Brought to the big screen by Wozzle Clambake, the twisted mind who brought
us such incredibly frightening fare as, ‘Rip Out Your Eyes for Satan’,
‘Do
the Hokey Pokey for Satan’, ‘Satan and You’, and ‘I Lost
My Car Keys’, this film is loaded with fine acting. Making a fashion
statement was never so unbearably repulsive, so wickedly vile. Innocent
looking trousers become filled with sharp, razor like teeth when put on.
Sweaters of fluffy woof become nasty, blood sucking tourniquets of death!
Worse still, when you wear these clothes, you'll be totally out of style.
This movie is not for the faint hearted or the fashion impaired.
