All hail BMC! Crappy movies on demand.

Looking over the upcoming Crappy Movie Fridays on AMC this week.

(Wolf: A personal favorite among the werewolf flicks. Second only to the original Wolfman.

Frankenstein meets the Space Monster: Horrible, aweful, film. Funny as all get out. *waves hand in jedi motion* This is not the Frankenstein you’re looking for… In fact…there actually IS NO FRANKENSTEIN. ???)

And, I stumbled on BMC!!!

Oh, what sweet fun!

One has to give credit to Saga of the Viking Women And Their Voyage To the Waters Of the Sea Serpent. Not often do movies give you a plot synopsis in their title.

But, you want to hear about the Halloween films…

The Horror section is currently offering:

Asylum: I’m a sucker for the movies that mash short stories together. And this is above average as those go…

Corridors of Blood: Easily the best of the lot. Boriss Karloff and Christofer Lee together in a very moody piece.

The horror of party beach: This is a Mystery Science Theater quality film…

How to Make a Monster: Don’t cross your makeup artist!

The War of the Colossal Beast: …giant man in a diaper attacks mexico…what’s not to like?

And, What a Carve Up: Best viewed as “scary movie”, spoofing all those house on haunted hill type setups.

Meanwhile, UEN is showing Tormented.

Bad…BAD special effects in an otherwise interesting concept. The Podcast after the show could be quite interesting…

So….

2 weeks ago, we spoke of this great plan

Plan A involved getting some conduit, bending it into a frame, then using chicken wire and paper mache, or even possibly fiberglass to make this thing.

Then, came plan B…It would be really handy if the thing was SECTIONAL…why not make that conduit into sections, instead of great big long pieces. So, we added a box, and some connectors…

That’s when we had to move onto plan C…Seems those little conduit connectors come with a rather flimsy nut on the side that connects to your boxes. I shopped around, and came up with a jam nut that will work…BUT, it’s size is making me re-design how to bend the conduit, and I now need a couple washers…

I was planning to have the legs DONE by now…instead, we haven’t even started, and we’ve had to scrap some conduit in the process…

It was bad enough that our second son got addicted to Finding Nemo, and I had to watch that thing every day for a few years while he was growing up. Now, our daughter is hooked on it as well…

Well, just keep swimming. We’ll be getting there. And anyone wondering why we start in January? Things like this…

Monsters Vs Aliens

Really.

With all the crappy movies I promote around here, I would be remisce if not giving a nod to the movie coming out this Friday that spoofs SO MANY of those bad movies.

A Haunter’s Moon

IS it spring in the air?

Are you sure?

Skeletal limbs reach towards the sky, reaching out, grasping the air. Life is slowly returning to them, pulsing with every moment. Their time will soon be at hand…

Spring? Or Halloween….? Oh, how the moonlight transforms…

Speaking of the moon…

Even a man who’s pure at heart
And says his prayers by night
May become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms
And the moon is full and bright.

I don’t normally get into remakes, but this is looking good. (bootleg leaked trailer)
