3. I don't recognize any of them, but anything they 'critique' that starts with 'horror' will be good.

And it was one of my faves! Now I'm disappointed though, because I thought I had a Gamera I hadn't seen before! Damn!

7. Time of the Apes!
The completely incoherent Japanese Planet of the Apes ripoff. If you haven't seen it, it is a classic, almost as good as Mitchell. Features "The Sandy Frank Song", Joel and the Bots' heartfelt paean to the film distributor who packaged all the Japanese schlock the boys had to sit through.

Michael Feinstein "Gamera" song!

On edit: Great, now I'll have that "Sandy Frank, Sandy Frank, his films are always poorly dubbed..." song in my head for the next three days...

10. Horror of Party Beach
It's a beach party movie. It's a horror movie. How could that NOT be great fodder for the 'bots?!

11. If you care at all about the chemical sodium...
...it will be the Horror of Party Beach.

It made sense to surrender. The Germans were very, very mean.

22. Catalina Caper
Edited on Sun May-20-07 11:16 AM by BlueDogDemocratNH
Not the usual sci-fi or horror (it's a sixties beach blanket movie). Worth it for Tom's lovely "Creepy Girl Song":

Oh, Creepy. Lyle Wagner's a total jerk, second only to Tommy Kirk.

Could you find it in your heart to love a 'Bot like me-e-e?

That fishy story you tell always makes me sleepy, but that's just what I get for dating a girl that's cre-e-epy.

My Creepy Girl!

Oh, C is for the uncertainty of not quite knowing what ethnic group you're from.

R is for the gifts you give me every time you smile.

The first E is for, uh... well I don't really know, but the second E is really a grammatical thing, otherwise it would be "Crepy Girl," and where would that leave us?

The P is definitely not for platonic, and Y? Because I love you!

My-y Creepy Girl! Oh, what are you, Creepy Girl? Are you French, Italian, or one of those swarthy Gypsy-types? Hehe.

Well, your accent suggests a Romance language, but I can't be sure. Well we can definitely rule out a Germanic language, but it's okay! I'm a 'Bot without a country. All I know is that I love you. I want to shout it from the mountaintops! Uh, but... I'd have to get back down to Earth and actually climb a mountain. Or they could drop me off on a mountain. I don't care!

That would be okay!

Because I just... need... you!

My-y Creepy Girl! Won't you be mi-i-ine? I'll give you scrolls and fish and tinker-toys and wi-i-ine. I'll ditch these guys, if you'll be my Cre-e-epy Girl! Be mi-ine before Mo-ovie Si-i-ign! Woah-ho, ooh-hoo...

26. What's funny about Space Mutany...
besides the Battlestar Galactica rip-off, the star (the screaming soldier) played the title role of the 2 Captain America TV movies in the 70s.

28. Besides the Bot snark, I thought for sheer nail biting tension
the duel o'death with the Zambonies was right up there with the car chase in The French Connection.
