Also as a head's up if you have Amazon Prime they frequently rotate through their feature length ones on there.

Dawgstar posted:Fun in Balloonland does fundamentally alter you at the spiritual level. Like, I can divide my life into the time before I saw Fun in Balloonland and after. Now I know how the characters in a Lovecraft story feel once they glimpse the Great Old Ones. I think I'm going to end up like Detective Walenski in Dark City.

I keep almost picking up the latest RiffTrax release, being the horror flick 'Ice Cream Man' but that is a LOT of Clint Howard leering and mugging at the camera.

I like Fun in Balloonland because it's so damned Philadelphia (grew up in northern Delaware in the late late 60s through to the 70s, and all of our local TV was Philly).

Life Pre-Fun In Balloonland. Life Pre-Rollergator. And Life Pre-A Talking Cat?!?. All make you descend to a whole new level of insanity.

One might think from the capsule description of 'talking baby alligator who raps and thinks he's funny is being pursued by a skateboard ninja sent by Joe Estevez' would lead to the valid conclusion of 'this motion picture will not be very good.' You do not realize it, but you have uttered an understatement that offends God Himself.

It’s all shot on the same VHS Camcorder your dad had in the early ‘90s, and it has the same 15 second loop of a ‘score’ that plays for the entire film.

Half (or more) of the dialogue in Rollergator is inaudible as well.

Oh, my. Monster A Go-Go. Not so much a movie as a random collection of scenes that are sort of related and it's all a dream anyway. Even Manos or Wild World of Batwoman doesn't pull that.

I missed this set the first time around, and Monster A Go-Go is just an essential episode, so I'm really happy about this. Also I still haven't seen Hobgoblins. Yeah, I know.

The Dead Talk Back is a weird episode because the movie was made in the 50s but it never actually got released until right before it got riffed.

Hobgoblins is just a classic all around. It even starts strong with examining the perils of accidentally turning somebody on.

The thing that always sticks to me about Hobgoblins is that the annoying club owner character went on to voice Cosmo from Fairly Odd Parents.
