I really don't know if this film belongs here, but it's here now! The plot is weird like all 60s/70s British movies so bear with me...<br />
Chas (James Fox) is a bully boy for a London crime syndicate. He works the protection rackets and duffs up the ones that resist. He goes too far however, and has to go on the run, disguising himself as a juggler (!) and attempting to lose himself in the Bohemian quarter of Notting Hill. He blags his way into a house inhabited by Turner (Mick Jagger) and rents a room. Turner, however, is rather strange himself, being a rock star in hiding who is 'searching for his lost demon'. Along with Pherber (Anita Pallenberg) and Lucy (Michele Breton) he attempts to exorcise the demon within Chas...what a strange story! Also stars Anthony Valentine and 'hard man' John Bindon.<br />

THE LUNATICS ARE TAKING OVER THE ASYLUM! Also known as Twinkle, Twinkle, Killer Kane, this is a mad film about madness and madmen. The original story was written by William Peter Blatty, who was also responsible for THE EXORCIST , and he also produced and directed this amazing piece of cinema. It concerns a bunch of mentally damaged American military personnel, now being kept in a castle somewhere in America. Into this environment steps US Marine Colonel Hudson Kane (Stacy Keach), the new psychiatrist in charge. However, Kane seems to have a few problems of his own in the upstairs department, including recurring dreams of death. He befriends astronaut Billy Cutshaw (Scott Wilson) and the pair make a pact concerning personal sacrifice and the nature of life after death. Kane's true identity is eventually revealed, and Cutshaw discovers a truth of his own by the climax.<br />
The story has some crazy humour and more twists than a worm in a salt bath. It is also memorable for the INCREDIBLE bar fight, in which Kane takes on an entire chapter of bikers barehanded.But why is he called KILLER KANE I hear you ask? Watch it and find out! A GEM!<br />

Robert Ginty is John Eastland aka THE EXTERMINATOR, a Vietnam veteran who has trouble adjusting to civilian life. When one of his buddies is paralysed by a criminal gang, John deals out his own brand of rough justice...and it ain't pretty! Investigating further, he finds links to organised crime, but his vigilante activities draw the attention of not only the police, but also the CIA. As Eastland's one man war of terror escalates, the authorities close in...great stuff!<br />
There is one big screen name here...SAMANTHA EGGAR plays a doctor...well, even big Hollywood stars must pay the rent I suppose, and this must have seemed like Hamlet to her after appearing in the travesty that was DR. DOLITTLE (1967).<br />
This cult classic is a bit hokey in places, but you can easily see where Arnie Schwarzenegger stole his trademark line...even the title is similar to TERMINATOR, which came out four years later.It has to be said though, that the similarities end there.<br />
Ginty reprised his role as John Eastland in a by-the-numbers sequel, Exterminator 2, which is more of the same.

Starring that wild and crazy guy Steve Martin, this film noir comedy is interspersed with clips from famous Hollywood thrillers of the 40s. Rigby Reardon (Martin) is a private eye on a case. With the help of various big stars such as Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Vincent Price and Joan Crawford (and many others!) he attempts to solve the murder of scientist and part time cheese maker John Hay Forrest (George Gaines) and falls in love with Juliet (Rachel Ward) , daughter of the dead man. Rigby gets shot in the arm several times (always in the same hole!) but luckily the gorgeous Juliet is always on hand to suck out the bullet.<br />
The idea for this movie came from a discussion between Martin,screenwriter George Gipe and director Carl Reiner (who also appears as the butler and the nasty Nazi). Martin originally had a screenplay which called for the use of an old film clip, and the project snowballed from there. The finished product uses scenes from 19 old thriller and pulp films, and you may enjoy naming the movies and stars as they appear. This technique of combining old and new footage was even copied by Heineken Lager for a series of adverts starring comedian Griff Rhys Jones...along with John Wayne and the cast of ICE COLD IN ALEX (1958)! Other movies have since copied the idea, notably Woody Allen's ZELIG (1983) and of course FORREST GUMP (1994) which was directed by Robert Zemeckis.<br />

THIS SKY TV IS AMAZING! Stanley Putterman (Gerrit Graham) has just installed a new, state of the art satellite television receiver...unfortunately it picks up a signal from Pluton, a 'garbage disposal' planet that is in the process of beaming out the most dangerous life form in the Universe, an alien 'pet' that has a taste for human flesh. Guess where the creature ends up? That's right, in the Putterman's living room! The blobby, boggle eyed, two ton extraterrestrial is soon comfortably ensconced in the family home and begins to learn our human ways...while displaying a few nasty habits of his own. I won't give away much more of this uproariously funny movie, suffice it to say that the plot involves heavy metal, wife swapping and a visit from the alien sanitation officer! This encounter goes badly for the unlucky space garbage collector, as you will see. Also stars Mary Woronov, who was a pal of Andy Warhol back in the day. This is my kind of movie...mad as a box of frogs on mescaline!

I COME IN PEACE! This very loud movie stars the amazing Dolph Lundgren, a hero hewn from the finest timber. He plays rule-breaking cop (aren't they all!) Jack Caine, a tough Texan lunatic who is after a narcotics gang called The White Boys. No, they ain't Nazis, they all have white collar jobs as a front for their crimes. Anyway, they steal a big pile of heroin from the FBI's own lockup, and the Feds take over the Police investigation. Caine gets a Fed as a new partner (Brian Benben) who tries to make him follow procedure etc. (just like all those other films right?). However, here's where it gets interesting...several of the White Boy soldiers are found slaughtered in a strange way. It turns out that they were killed by a razor sharp flying disc, similar to the one Predators use in THEIR movies! Also, bodies start turning up that have been pumped full of heroin, then had their endorphins extracted. Yes, you guessed it, an alien drug dealer is on the loose! This nice guy kills his victims with the smack, then sucks out the endorphins, which he then sells to addicts on his own planet. He extracts the gunk from the brains using a spiky thing strapped to his wrist...again just like Predator! (see the picture above). Caine, the Fed idiot and an alien cop named Azeck must stop the nasty Talec (dumb alien names!) before he brings his druggy pals to Earth and wipes us all out for our brain chemicals.<br />
I loved this movie when it was released, as the action makes up for the shortcomings in a big way. On reflection, it's just a twist on the vastly superior PREDATOR which came out two years before. Dolph is as wooden as a tree, as are the rest of the cast. The horrible Talec (Matthias Hues) is about nine feet tall and looks like a pop eyed model for Mount Rushmore. This movie does have one big name star...Michael J. Pollard, who was in BONNIE AND CLYDE (he played CW Moss) and LITTLE FAUSS AND BIG HALSY (with Robert Redford), and many other films in a fine portfolio of work. However, Pollard's star was definitely on the wane by the time he appeared in this...he has a small cameo as a pool playing snitch. To sum up, this is a typical 80s movie, from the cast to the soundtrack (by Jan Hammer), and is easily Dolph's best film...it's a lot better than THE PUNISHER anyway. ENJOY!<br />

Starring one of my comedy heroes, the amazing Andy Kaufman, this is one of the worst movies ever committed to celluloid. Andy is Val, a valet robot, who meets and falls in love with Acqua (Bernadette Peters) when they both go back to the factory for repairs. They steal a van and escape, pursued by Crimebuster, a sort of fat Dalek in a tank who is the local law enforcing robot. They also find time to produce a 'child' named Phil (allegedly Grateful Dead icon JERRY GARCIA...but all he does is bleep) out of spare parts, and fall in with a stand up comedy robot (who spends the entire movie sitting down!) named Catskil. This unfortunate fellow tells the lamest jokes you ever heard, the one about the man who thinks he's a fridge being typical of his repertoire. However, it turns out that he is conserving energy by selecting 'low power joke mode', and he finally redeems himself with a blinding mother-in-law crack at 1:04:48 into the film. This tale has an exceptional cast including Randy Quaid, Kenneth McMillan, Christopher Guest (Nigel Tufnel from SPINAL TAP) and Kathleen Freeman (The Penguin nun in THE BLUES BROTHERS). Also, the soundtrack was composed by John Williams...yes, the STAR WARS guy! Despite this,I'm warning you...it's AWFUL!!! In fact, it did such dismal business on release that Kaufman himself apologised to his fans and offered to refund their ticket money during an appearance on the David Letterman show. Letterman's advice to Andy was to make sure he had change of $20! I loved every minute of it...but then I'm just a dumb animal...More dross among the diodes from Sneaky Elephant SOON!</span>SneakyElephanthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16761809263351416171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6203747148626938683.post-26827425140112443112012-02-01T14:46:00.000-08:002012-02-02T05:00:33.498-08:00This Island Earth (1955)<a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgkf2m">http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgkf2m</a><br />

<span class="commentBody" data-jsid="text">Based on the 1952 novel by Raymond F. Jones, THIS ISLAND EARTH is a much-loved and influential classic sci-fi movie starring Rex Reason, Jeff Morrow and Faith Domergue. The planet Metaluna is at war with the evil Zagons, so they send their man Exeter (Jeff Morrow) to Earth to get some uranium for their weapons. Meanwhile, Dr. Cal Meacham (Rex Reason) orders some electronic components but gets some strange parts instead, plus plans to build a device called an Interocitor. When this machine is turned on, Exeter appears on the screen and recruits Meacham to his cause against the Zagon menace.He takes Meacham and his girlfriend Ruth back to Metaluna,where things are looking bad for the home side.A big-headed monstrosity called the Mut-Ant lurks in the corridors of the Metalunan city, adding to the general confusion.It turns out, however, that the Metalunans have a hidden agenda, and Exeter must betray his home planet in order to save the Earth. This film is packed with great ideas and special effects for the time, despite the lockjaw performances and wooden dialog! Sit back and enjoy a big chunk of Cold War era scaremongery, but mind the Mut-Ant doesn't get you!

<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed" id="id_4f29bde3298146a39330114">'GOD SAVE OUR GRACIOUS MRS ETHEL SHROAKE!' This film, directed by Richard Lester, is based on the surreal play by Spike Milligan and John Antrobus. It concerns the survivors of WW3, slowly decaying amid the ruins and rubble of society. It <span class="text_exposed_show">stars many familiar faces from British television and film, notably Arthur Lowe,Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, Rita Tushingham and Dandy Nichols. The war only lasted two minutes and 28 seconds, but the lingering radiation has had catastrophic effects on the survivors....Arthur Lowe turns into a parrot (and is cooked and eaten), Mona Washbourne into a wardrobe, and Ralph Richardson into the bed sitting room of the title. Dandy Nichols plays Mrs Ethel Shroake, former cleaner to Her Majesty, and as a result the new monarch of England. Milligan himself is on his usual surreal form, and the screenplay follows the original story as best it can, despite the obvious limitations of 60's movie technology. I won't make any jokes about this one, it makes its point in tragi-comic style...More tales of wonder from Sneaky Elephant's movie alerts to follow!</span></div>SneakyElephanthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16761809263351416171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6203747148626938683.post-47309924058204342442012-02-01T14:37:00.000-08:002012-02-01T14:37:45.609-08:00Guest House Paradiso (1999)<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHr1XaJCnck">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHr1XaJCnck</a><br />

<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed" id="id_4f29bde329cd76212404938">This could well be the funniest film ever made. It stars the incredible Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson as the proprietors of the worst hotel in England, situated next to a nuclear power plant.Mayall is Mr Twatt (pronounced Thwaite!) the manag<span class="text_exposed_show">er, and Edmondson is the bellboy, waiter, stand-in cook and odd job man. The guests include Bill Nighy, Simon Pegg and Fenella Fielding, all treated disgracefully by our dynamic duo. Throw in an Italian beauty and her violently jealous boyfriend and you have the makings of a fantastically funny romp.There are knob gags, fart gags, you name it and it's here. The movie also features the longest moped joke in the world, and a host of incredibly violent but side splitting fights. After seeing this, you will NEVER eat pea soup again. WONDERFUL!

<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed" id="id_4f260d9263e9d4701515361">AT LAST! I searched high and low for a link to this wonderfully bad movie, and now here it is in all its glory, albeit with French subtitles! This is a tale of murder and retribution in the South Sea islands...the young native prince Kimo is framed for the death of his father the Chief by the evil<span class="text_exposed_show"> witch doctor Tano, the 'prime minister' Maranka and Kimo's own wife Korey, who is having it off with one or both of them. Before Kimo dies, he swears to return and avenge the wrongs done to him, and this he does...AS A TREE! Talk about Kimo-therapy! This murderous wooden stump (complete with a ludicrous 'face' on the front of his trunk) lurches around the countryside chasing and killing the evildoers at a snails pace, while a bunch of white scientists try to figure out a way of capturing him. First they try to save it, then they try to kill it...bloody Yanks! However, one of them (the girl doctor obviously) looks great in a bikini, so bear with it. There is also an 'Australian' widow named Mrs. Kilgore, who seems to be played by a Dora Bryan impersonator. The tree is called TABANGA, and is apparently an evil spirit...he is also the least wooden actor in this astonishing production! Luckily for him, the natives are incapable of running or even walking briskly, thus affording him the chance to finish them off by squashing them against another tree or convenient boulder. Seems like I'm not the only one with a deadly trunk! The monster was designed by Paul Blaisdell, the same man who created 'Beulah' the Venusian cucumber alien in IT CONQUERED THE WORLD. Inside the Tabanga suit is professional wrestler Chester Hayes, who also plays the native Maku...I hope he got two paychecks for this. One of the finest crap movies ever, and well worth a look!

I nearly didn't include this movie as it takes a bit of commitment to actually get the link working, but as it is my VERY FAVOURITE MONSTER FILM OF ALL, here it is!

Here's a typical 'swinging 60s' film, directed and produced by the Boulting brothers. Hywel Bennett is Martin, a disturbed young man who feigns mental illness in order to get into Hayley Mills' knickers. Posing as 'Georgie', he worms his wa<span class="text_exposed_show">y into her life but soon displays some strange tendencies. He also whistles the most annoying little tune... and gradually his sinister intentions are revealed! This film was criticised at the time of release for the way it portrayed Downs Syndrome.

This is a terrible remake of the dreadful It Conquered the World, and features John Agar (he made LOADS of crap movies like this one) once more sweating to save Mankind. The monster is t<span class="text_exposed_show">ruly awful (although he is easily the best actor in this tale), and insists on trying to enslave the human race from his hideout in a cave. He causes terrible problems with his sinister shenanigans, and Dr. Taylor (Agar) has his work cut out trying to foil the flaky fruit-bat's dastardly scheme. I really feel sorry for the poor bugger in the 'alien' costume, after all he was never going to be asked for his autograph by even the most desperate film fan.

IT'S THAT MAN AGAIN! Even before grappling with the mighty ZONTAR, THE THING FROM VENUS, John Agar was sweating buckets against GOR, the Brain from Planet Arous. This is a classic crap movie, and the monster will make you hoot with laughter<span class="text_exposed_show">.....a huge brain with glowing eyes, dangling on a length of fishing line! The plot is simple enough...Gor crashes his light bulb into Mystery Mountain, and hides out in a tunnel. Agar and his pal detect Gor's radiation from 30 miles away (!!!?) and decide to investigate, whereupon Agar gets 'possessed' by the brain. He then has a session with his girlfriend and starts making unreasonable demands of the United Nations. Another brain comes after him and takes over a dog, which leads to further complications. The sweat patches on Agar's shirt come and go seemingly at random, and the acting and special effects are truly dire. The funniest thing you will see for a long time to come!

OOOOO! The original BBC series! I wasn't even born when this was originally shown, but I found the paperback screenplay in a bookshop as a kid and never forgot it (well I'm an elephant). This is longer overall than the Hammer feature film s<span class="text_exposed_show">tarring Brian Donlevy,being more of a forerunner to Dr Who and having that old BBC 'style' to it.Look out for several familiar faces, including Hugh Griffith (the horse loving Sheikh in Ben Hur),Wilfred 'Old Man Steptoe' Brambell and a very young Melvyn Hayes, yes Gloria from It Aint Half Hot Mum! Turn out the lights and get ready for a nice creepy evening in with the Professor, played in dashing style by John Robinson...how English can you get?Trivia items: This tv series and the Hammer feature film have 2 things in common-they were both filmed at the Shell Haven oil refinery in Essex, and the part of McLeod was played by John Rae in both productions. There must have been a shortage of Scots actors at the time! This story and the first Quatermass tale were the scariest things that had ever been seen on British tv at the time,so scary in fact that questions were asked in Parliament about the suitability of such horrors being allowed into our homes!Wonderful stuff!

A spaceship from a dying planet comes to Earth with one objective...to capture GIRLS for breeding with...the DIRTY BUGGERS! Another dreadful/brilliant sci-fi movie with crap monsters and actors alike! They seem to have thrown in as many ran<span class="text_exposed_show">dom elements as possible in an attempt to please everyone...robot astronauts, rock'n'roll pool parties,bikini girls,a bald gay bloke with pointy ears,a gorgeous but mental Alien Queen and a BIG LOONY THING IN A CAGE! This movie was also known as Duel of the Space Monsters. Watch and enjoy!

AARRGGHH RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! Based on 'The Hounds of Zaroff', the short story by Richard Connell, this great movie starred Fay Wray and Robert Armstrong,the two main (human) leads from King Kong.Also featured are Joel McCrea as 'the famous hunter' Robert Rainsford, and Leslie Banks as the evil Count Zaroff, w<span class="text_exposed_show">ho finds people better sport than tigers,pigs,bears etc. This film was banned in Britain at the time, the sight of Zaroff's trophy room (human heads on the walls!) causing the censor to faint! A wonderful story that was the inspiration for so many to follow, including Predator,The Running Man and Punishment Park. I'm glad Zaroff doesn't shoot ELEPHANTS!

What's that on your shoe? UGGGGGG IT'S......THE GREEN SLIME!!! This odd Japanese/American co-production stars Richard Jaeckel (Sgt Bowren in The Dirty Dozen) and concerns an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. Some astronauts set out<span class="text_exposed_show"> from their space station to blow it up, and in the process one of them gets a bit of lime jelly on his leg. Once back at the station this begins to grow at an alarming rate, and it eventually mutates into a bunch of one eyed jelly-men waving sparklers in their slimy paws. Throw in a REALLY REALLY dumb script and some of the ropiest sets ever designed and you get one STINKER of a story.Robert Horton is good as the hard-ass senior Commander from Earth who overrides Jaeckel's orders at every turn, then BLAMES HIM when it all goes tentacles up! Good for a laugh.
