more damn frog

That show sure had some bitchin guests. High ones too. I love Debbie but she's on something here. Her mouth is doing something she cant control Still she keeps herself enough in the moment to pull it off. Kudos for riding the HORSE and being on a national kids show a the same time.

SEX PISTOLS Groupie Bigger than God!

Yes its true. Before the Banshees Siouxie used to hang with the Sex Pistols. She was just a music fan then. She wasn't the queen of Death rock/goth/Emo whatever you kids call it these days. To me she'll always be the singer who looks like Margot Kidder.
This is one of my favorite 80's Beatles covers.

Sit back and enjoy a video from a simpler time. A time when video effects were crappy and editors mistakes were genius.
We as viewers have come so far. This type of video is not even acceptible using BECK's standards today but back then...
pure fast forward hipness.

Candygram from Mongo.

I've never seen this teaser before. It actually looks like a film I'd want to see.

It's not.

MV3

Holy calzone! I popped over to MarksPlanet and he had posted a few videos from SOLID GOLD. It shook something in my brain to check youtube for MV3 and BINGO! There are all these clips (Crappy vhs clips) from the 80's show MV3.
I thought maybe just maybe there would be a glimpse of my friend who passed away. She used to dance on this show. These are almost unwatchable but may be the only record of that damn show.
It was like a new wave Dance Party USA for gay kids. This fiasco was hosted by KROQ D.J. Richard Blade and co-hosted by two "young kids" One was David Maples who grew up to write a couple of episodes of HUFF. The other co-host was Karen Scott who's acting career was an appearance in a film called FREE RIDE as "Stuck up girl". Beyond odd is the fact Debbie Diamond has this show as one of her credits on IMDB. Debbie also has as one of her credits a film called Dixon Maison: Mystery at Hillyard Manor. A film produced by yours truly and directed by Scott Mabbutt. If I knew that I would have talked to her on the set.






Found her. Shes in the following ROMEO VOID bit. 2:00 wearing a striped white shirt. Veronica Pintos.
Oh dear god more frightening than finding the dead is finding the living. Mike Walters can be seen at 1:48. Crap. I have to call him and tell him he looked like a lesbian.

Bill

Bill, a retarded man, ventures out into the world for the first time. Having spent most of his life in a dreary inner city Institution. He is taken in by a kind family and learns what it means to love for the first time in his life.


Yet another actor taking a stab at being retarded. This time a crazy person is hired to play a mentally challenged man. His portrayal was awkward and insulting. This "drama" actually had a TV movie sequel entitled BILL ON HIS OWN.

Another "make fun of disabled people" movie

"Slapstick: of another kind" seems to have avoided DVD in the USA. While it may not be the worst film ever made it is certainly in the running. Here is a synopsis of the film. It reads far better than it is.

Basicly it is Madaline Kahn and Jerry Lewis doing "retard" jokes for 80 odd minutes.

The People's Republic of China is severing relations with all other nations. They have mastered the art of miniaturization, and have shrunk all their people to the height of 2 inches. The ambassador of China, Ah Fong (Pat Morita), announces during a press conference that they key to all knowledge can be found from twins.

Caleb Swain (Jerry Lewis) and his wife Letitia (Madeline Kahn) are called 'the most beautiful of all the beautiful people' by the press. However, when Letitia gives birth to twins who are called "monsters." The family doctor, Dr. Frankenstein (John Abbott) informs the parents that the twins won't live more than a few months. The Swain's decide to allow the twins to live their short life in a mansion staffed with servants, including Sylvester (Marty Feldman).

Fifteen years later the twins (also played by Lewis and Kahn) are "still alive." They have large heads and appear to be retarded. Their parents, who have not seen them in all those years, receive a visit from the former Chinese ambassador who inform them that their children are genuises who can solve the world's problems. They dont hold a candle to Chance the gardener!

The parents, along with the US president (Jim Backus) pay the children a visit. They reveal themselves to be well-behaved and intelligent, explaining that they acted "stupid" around the servants because they were simply emulating them.

A series of tests reveal that there is a telepathic connection between the twins, and their intelligence is only functionable when they are together. Furthermore, when their heads are touching they reach a level of intelligence that has never been surpassed.

Their parents, fearful that incest may be prevalent, separate the two. They become despondant without each other, and the Chinese ambassador appears again to tell them to seek each other out. Once united, a spaceship appears and reveals that they are really aliens who were sent to Earth to solve all of the planet's problems. However, their alien father (voice of Orson Welles) reveals that Earth cannot handle their intelligence and returns them to their home planet. Whoa. Now imagine that film but not funny. It plays much better as a horror film.

Duke it out.

Dukes of Hazzard I swear was softcore Gay porn.
