Just caught this on TCM....

....and now I have no choice but to buy it. A mini-B&T reunion (Alex, Keanu and Bill Sadler), Mr. T, makeup FX by everybody I used to read about in FANGORIA in the late '80s/early '90s, Basil Wolverton-inspired freaks at the end, a giant shoe (with a real tongue!), absolutely every actor chewing the scenery.....the list goes on and on.

It's right up there with Meet the Feebles, Rocky Horror and Naked Lunch as one of the most bizarre cult classics ever made.

And last but not least....

"Styrofoam cup."

The Falcon flies

Watched it for the very first time on TCM last night too . A most crazy cool rare find for me . Didn't even know it existed before lol . It almost had a " Beetlejuice Movie flair " to it with the creature special effects . Actor Randy Quaid was as great in this as he was in " National Lampoon's Vacation " as Cousin Eddie Johnson lol . Thanks falcon2484 for your subject post .

Alex Winter must be a huge Tim Burton/horror fan because the style is there. BTW, did you know in the sequel to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure that Alex Winter also played the spooky granny in the nightmare segment?

That's what I thought too robertmarcl it did seem like a very Tim Burton type movie . I'm surprised it wasn't lol .
