Barney likes to take a great big axe and give terrible horror flix his Pow Pow Pow!!!!
Movies so bad they’re great!
Today’s “Special Occasion” as Miss Jennifer and Miss Clara Belle would say
EVEN MISS JENNIFER AND MISS CLARA BELLE HAVE TO TURN AWAY IT’S SO BAD!
Shriek of the Mutilated
1974
The always hilarious, terribly acted in particular Tom Grail as Spencer St. Claire in the strangest opening scene it’s too weirdly awesome for words, and Ivan Agar as the weirdest Indian who looks more like a meat packer from Jersey, Laughing Crow (he has no tongue, the natives cut it out because they didn’t believe in the yeti and LC was held captive for 3 days but escaped before the creature tried to eat him?so they cut out his tongue!)
Am exclusive dish on the menu that is “Oriental” great misuse of terminology, anyways, a special meat dish called Gin Sum? which figures into the Indian native culture how? Wait til you find out the ingredients.
An obsessive Academic fop named Ernst Prell played by Alan Brock, who looks like a Nazi who didn’t go to Argentina to hide, instead he teaches Anthropology at the University of idiots U.S.A.
Tawm Ellis as Dr Karl Werner who’s elocution sounds like he’s trying badly, to channel the great Vincent Price.
The day for night scenes that are clearly more day than night. Dr Werner recounted the night he heard the heart beat of the wild beast, the clouds covered the moon, so there was hardly any light to see, although it was obviously 12 noon and I could see every bit of patio furniture on this Island filled with natives? that looked more like Staten Island than Boot Island.
A public domain classical film score that belongs in a 50s travelogue and is so incongruous to the action or lack there of. And best of all, the elusive Yeti creature that looks like a guy in one of those sexual fetish Furry costumes, or a giant killer Lhasa Apso And one of the best lines of all time:
Jennifer Stock as Karen screaming -“it’s his leg, it’s his leg”
It’s just so god awful it’s that good! Barney says it gets his “Pow, Pow Pow” award….!
