Suppose you came up with the idea for this movie ...


Suppose you came up with the idea for a horror film about giant rabbits. Wouldn't you immediately laugh and reject it?

Now? Yeah. Back then...nothing was too ridiculous to make into a movie.

Sometimes I really miss the '70s!

If they made a movie like this today, it would be "ironic."

No, I wouldn't reject it. I'd find a really good horror director and special effects people and do it up right. I'm not one for re-makes, but in this case, it would be a hoot!

Ha, can you imagine Night of the Lepus as a big-budget, modern-day movie? Starring Jamie Lee Curtis maybe?

She'd be following in her mom's footsteps. Maybe she can convince Ahhnold to "Terminate" those "true lying" big bunnies!

Or we could have her homicidal co-star in Halloween take a crack at them.

I just watched Halloween 4 this evening. That Michael Meyers would probably roast them for dinner! He's one freaky killer!

Roast them for dinner? No, no, you're thinking of Glenn Close's character in Fatal Attraction. Maybe Close should appear in the remake. With a giant pot.

Perhaps our killer would be better as this...

Elmer Fudd can't even bag a regular-sized rabbit. His presence in Night of the Lepus would make for a funny movie, though. Hollywood? Are you listening?
