CLIP OF THE MOMENT: SHIP OF MONSTERS (1959)

Here is a clip from the exciting climax of Ship of Monsters (La Nave de los monstruos, 1959)! SPOILER ALERT!

synopsis: "Ship of Monsters" is an unbelievable science-fiction / comedy / musical / western black & white movie featuring two sexy and stacked space-women (one of whom is Mexican scream-queen Lorna Velazquez) and their whacked-out robot. While on a seemingly innocent spaceship trip to visit Earth the two babes, upon landing, compete for the attention of a happy-go-lucky singing cowboy. Then, one of the women turns out to be an evil vampire bent on world domination! She thaws out a group of 4 insane looking frozen monsters she has hidden away in a nearby cave to do her wicked bidding!

TRAILER OF THE MOMENT: BOY GOD (1982)

The Boy God, aka Roco, ang batang bato, is an ultra-weird fantasy / action / adventure film about a chubby young boy born with superpowers who must travel through a mystical and dangerous land to find his real (dead?) parents. On his journey he helps a tribe of midgets battle a giant Cyclops and takes on a 2-headed monster with the aid of a Wonder Woman-ish female super hero! He also fends off the local village against vampire creatures and an evil scientist. The whole mess ends up in a wildly manic kung fu and gun fight against the scientist and his men! Available on DVD-R!

CLIP OF THE MOMENT: ROSEMARY CLOONEY ON "TWILIGHT THEATER" (1982)

Another clip from NBCs tv program "Twilight Theater"! (see Pee Wee Herman's appearance below) In the skit "Common Nightmares", an intro revolving around the Barnes and Barnes song "Party In My Pants" leads into Rosemary Clooney singing her classic pop hit "Come On-a My House". The shot of the rotating pig with candles was taken from a Residents music video. Also at the "party" are a few New Wave icons from bygone years (remember Spazz Attack from Devo's "Satisfaction" video?). This may not seem like a big deal nowadays but this was some freaky shit for a major network in 1982!
