ALIEN FROM L.A. / Golan-Globus Productions - 1988

here we go with an unlikely little flick starring the very cute Kathy Ireland as mousey girl, Wanda Saknussemm. After appearing on CHARLES IN CHARGE in 1985, Kathy landed this role and also did the follow up feature as Wanda in JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH the same year.

It's all about a girl named Wanda! Yeah, big deal, I have a cousin named Wanda too.

Anywho, Wanda wants to know why handsome surfer dude Robbie doesn't like her and you will hear what he has to say about that in the sound clip...

I've got a little sound clip for your approval, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button over by our underground fort, NOW, Rufus The Gnat!.. Here's a sample of... ALIEN FROM LA!

Believe it or not, Wanda discovers a hidden world with the help of some writings by her uncle or something (it's sooo hard for me to try and follow lame stories like this).

She falls down a cavern (I think) and lands in a big pile of sand. There, a weirdo in a weird vehicle gives her a ride to wherever the Hell she's going...

The underground world she discovers looks like an excuse to show off the contemporary LA music and art scene at the time. You don't have to spend money on costumes because the extras just show up as is..

Okay, this shot I like! I swear, I would give my left elbow for a home like this, no kidding!!

This is my favorite part of the movie. They crop the shots to make it easy to imagine that Wanda is nude, even though she has a towel around her. At least they did something right!

Anyway, Wanda is starting to feel sexy and all... Hoo-ray!!!

This jerk is a big shot in Stupidville, he has Wanda drugged, wonder what's on his mind.

Here you go, three too happy inhabitants showing off their chops!

Some science geeks (I believe) shoot Wanda back up to the land of suntans... Whoosh!!

Robbie is intrigued by the new Wanda, and, why not!?.. Tune in tomorrow when we're back with more fun just for you!

THE FARM OF TOMORROW - Tex Avery (1954)

Well, this will be the last installment of the Tex Avery 'Tomorrow' series around here! 

Don't you sometimes wish your name was Tex? I do!

 Here it is, "The Farm Of Tomorrow," 1954 style!

Very high tech, neat and clean looking, that's for sure!

Science has done wonders in the future, and most of it is what we like to refer to as twofers!

That's a two for the price of one deal in a combination of two things, like in this case, a toaster, and an incubator that hatches chicks in the same time it would take to make a piece of toast!

Tex Avery's chickens were well taken care of with spacious cages decades ago. Too bad this part was only a cartoon!

 This whole cartoon is an assortment of sketches of the future followed by how it would all pan out, like in this case, the combination of a chicken and a parrot! 

 What do you get? A chicken that lets you know when there are eggs to be gathered!

 A cross between a chicken and an ostrich produces............

..........Much bigger drumsticks! There's lots of hungry mouths out there, so more production is a major deal!

Same thing here, a cross between a chicken and a centipede also produces.......

 ................A lot more food!

 A cross between a beaver and a cow makes a cow that can swat it's own flies!

A cross between a cow and a kangaroo produces.......

 

.......A cow that delivers it's own milk!

 Don't like plucking a duck? This one peels like a banana!

 Now this is a good idea! I saw a tree one time in the Fresno Underground Gardens where a guy had grafted about 13 different fruit onto one tree, so it's not completely as crazy as it appears!

 A giraffe crossed with a race horse makes it a winner even if it's in last place!

 IF all that wasn't odd enough, the real freak show is in the 'Reject Barn!'

This is a stool pigeon! 

And last we have this cross between an owl and a goat that produced a hootenanny! 

Don't blame me, I just work here!

CREEPSHOW / Creepshow Films Inc., Laurel Entertainment Inc. - 1982

I'll be unloading a lot of eighties movies over the next few months in an attempt to include more movies we have yet to review. Eegah!! and I divide our review choices up, he basically despises the newer movies so it's my job to fill in the blanks in our quest to cover as many movies as we can before we've had enough and tap out. Today's post is number 2045 on the old dusty Dungeon trail to oblivion...

Today's feature is one I saw when it came out, it's all about horror comics and how much kids love them. But, this dad is livid over his son's addiction to weird stuff.

I have a sound clip from this flick for your approval, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button located there by our pre-code horror comic collection, NOW, Ralphie The Tarantula!.. Here's... CREEPSHOW!

The first of five stories deals with a crazy old rich coot that returns from the grave in order to get the Father's Day cake his murdering daughter never served him.

But, at the end, he gets his cake and eats it too!

Our second story stars Stephen King as country hayseed Jordy Verrill, he makes the stupid mistake of touching one of Lovecraft's missing meteorites after it crashes near his house.

Well, everything he touches turns into foliage because he's now a plant! And, the infection just keeps on spreading across the countryside, happy nightmares ever'bloody!

In this tale, Leslie Nielsen plays a real little bitch, here, he has a devilish plan for Ted Danson and his cheating wife...

Of course, the plan backfires big time and Leslie ends up buried in the sand hisself, waiting for the tide to come in!

The fourth tale is about a gruesome creature that resides in a crate at the local college and the bloody mystery surrounding it.

Let's put it this way... Get me the Hell out of here!!!

E.G. Marshall is millionaire Upson Pratt in the last story, he hates people, he hate germs, he hates bugs... He's locked up in his high rise apartment in a Howard Hughes type existence. What he does love though is money and power.

He can't get anyone to help him when tons of cockroaches infest and invade his shining domain, oh well! Tune in again on Wednesday when we'll have another review just for you.
