cheepnis
let me tell you something do you like monster movies
anybody
i love monster movies i simply adore monster movies and the
cheaper they are the better they are and cheepnis in the case
of a monster movie has nothing to do with the budget of the
film al
h it helps but true cheepnis is exemplified by visible nylon
strings attached to the jaw of a giant spider ill tell you a
good one that i saw one time i think the name of the film was
quot
onquered the worldquot and the did you ever see
that one the monster looks sort of like an inverted ice-cream
corn with teeth around the bottom it looks like a like a
teepee or a
of a rounded off pup-tent affair and ah its got fangs on the
base of it i dont know why but its a very threatening sight
and then hes got a frown and you know ugly mouth and
everythin
d theres this one scene where the ah monster is coming out of a
cave see theres always a scene where they come out of a cave
at least once and the rest of the castit musta been made aro
he 1950s the lapels are about like th
at wide the ties are about that wide and about this short and
they always have a little revolver that theyre gonna shoot the
monster with and there is always a girl who falls down and
twists
ankle hey hey of course there is you know how they are the
weaker sex and everything twisting their ankle on behalf of a
little ice-cream corn well in this particular scene in this
scene
they ah they didnt wanna re-take it cause it musta been so
good they wanted to keep it but they when the monster came
out of the cave just over on the left hand side of the screen
you
ee about this much two-by-four attached to the bottom of the
thing as the guy is pushing it out and then obviously
off-camera somebodys goin quotno get it backquot and
they drag it
just a little bit as the guy is goin quotkch kchquot now
thats cheepnis
right and this is cheepnis here one two three four
i ate a hot dog
it tasted real good
then i watched a movie
from hollywood
little miss muffett on a squat by me
took a turn around i said can yall see
the little strings on the giant spider quot
the zipper from the black lagoon
the vents by the tanks where the bubbles go up
the jelly amp paint on the 40 watt bulb
they use when the slime droozle off
the rumples amp the wrinkles in the cardboard rock
and the canvas of the cave is too soft
the suits amp the hats amp the ties too wide
and too short for the scientist man
the chemistry lady with the roll-away mind
and the monster just ate japan
ladies and gentlemen
the monster
which the peasants in this area call frunobulax
has just been seen approaching the power plant
bullets cant stop it
rockets cant stop it
we may have to use nuclear force
here comes that poodle dog
big as a blimp with a rhinestone collar
snappin off the trees
like they was bonsaid ornaments on a
dry-wobble landscape
keep it away dont let the poodle bite me
we cant let it reproduce oh
somebody get out the pants
the national guard has formed up at the base
of the mountain
and is attempting to lure the enormous poodle
towards the cave
where they hope to destroy it with napalm
a thousand of the troopers are now lined up
and are calling to the monster
