1:50 that's a pretty standard old thermos, it has thick walls and the lid is a cup. It actually carried less than youd think, but it was popular for construction workers and other people who work ou tr side, and its size also made it popular for sharing with others. My dad used this same thermos for 30 years
The lack of day for night filter in this movie is hysterical.
At the actual Crater Lake National Park in Oregon, there is a terrific Native American folktale regarding an enormous, man-eating CRAYFISH that inhabits the lake. Now THAT would make a damn good creature feature. A normal crayfish is terrifying enough. I don't know why someone hasn't made THAT movie yet. (Asylum Studios, don't you dare!)
"When Dinosaurs Rule The Earth" has some cool giant crabs.
Michael Rodda They would have to kill by having a giant Louisanain suck it's brain out.
yea but Asylum would make it, Craygator vs PiranhaBoa
I just looked Crayfish up on Google; you're right, those things are terrifying!
@@killerfrank8974 but so delicious.
"Are they on drugs!?" That.. was awesome.
I say this film has impressive Stop Motion Animation scenes.
3:17 does that mean the flies have killed Steve twice?
TheBaronVSP I can't believe he didn't make a joke
That thermos needs to be wheeled around like a portable oxygen tank
"Arnie died how he lived...stupidly!"
Phuck Annie.
Th one thermos to rule them all
cody caldwell My Precious!
One thermos to find them
I used to have that exact same thermos but it got stolen. They're friggin TANKS and the lid is a coffee cup 😊
"Sooner or later he will float out"
That's what I call thinking ahead and tell the worried to death family to start grieving.
I swear, you could put out a new video 3 times a day and it still wouldn't be enough! Love your videos (and sense of humor)! No one else talks about the obscure, lower budget, and sometimes downright strange movies quite like you, Cecil!
Jennifer Davis Namaste.
Thank you! If I could, I would!
I own & absolutely LOVED this movie from the moment I popped it in & saw the opening scenes. What attracted me, is I've always been interested in lake monster legends, even though I'm a huge skeptic on the subject. When I discovered the existence of this movie, I had to own it, & luckily, not long afterwards, found a copy at a local grocery store. Lol, I never even noticed the problematic day for night segments, until you pointed them out in this video, lol. I know that I loved the campy & cheesy acting, & especially loved the stop motion lake monster. I think it looks glorious!!
Your joy in summarizing this movie is infectious. I was giggling through the entire thing.
Your videos always starts off the work week on the right note.
wstine79 Namaste.
Glad to help
"Till I took a bullet to the knee." Thank you for this!
Yeah, the monster was all like " Wait. What? You're just gonna ruin a good boat? Why? You know what, I'm not even feelin' this shit now..I'm out."
[While leaving, speaking to self]
"Honestly! He sets the boat on fire?! I swear, Man...Some people.."
I literally just watched your video on Mr. Suki .. the hero we don't deserve
The boat pulling out segment was entrawling
They should've just given the monster Three Fiddy...
"whaaa you gave that monster three fiddy? No wonder he keeps coming back!"
I’m a life-long Oregonian. I can say the characters and their behavior in this film seem very true to life. You may want to check your facts about the production problems. Everything in the movie may simply be from the perspective of the characters in Oregon. Also, skullet is the word I didn’t know I’ve been wanting to say my entire life.
This is so hysterical, your commentary had my laughing so hard . Please don’t ever change
8:02 KITTENS!
I loved this movie when I was a kid!! This is super nostalgic
How DARE YOU hate on Arnie! He was the greatest character EVER! UNSUB!
5:35 "I will can't" 😂
Oh thank god, I thought I was havin a stroke.
"Oh, HI STARS!" *blink blink
Never heard of this film....but love the review
i have come back almost exactly one year from the upload date, just to confirm that those thermoses are a very common thing, among long-haul truck drivers, people who wish they were long-haul truck drivers, and people who drive little pick-ups, mistakenly refer to them as "trucks" and who often are responsible for bringing coffee to work crews who might be loggers, fire fighters, road construction, heavy machine operators, or truck drivers. It always comes back to trucks, apparently. O and the one in the movie looks like it might hold 1.89l or 2 quarts. They look big but the inner insulated part is not as big as the outer shell.
This movie scared the hell outta me as a kid, I never saw it but I had this old vhs about movie dinosaurs and dinosaur like monsters and occasionally it would show a trailer for a movie and it scared the piss outta me, I still remember the narration
'meanwhile tacle is missing a k' ~ GoodbadFlicks 2018
That line had me in tears. I had to pause and rewatch that bit just to make sure!
A very hilarious review, sir. Bravo!
Thanks!
You sir have my entire respect for that doctor Steve reference
Dr. Steve Chipperson tssk tssk
Love the Dr Steve reference!!!
It's always a pleasure to hear you talk about obscure B movies like this one. As far as the monster is concerned, it's not the worst one ever created, but it's not on par with the Ray Harryhausen creations either.
Wim Van der Straeten yes the worst is the giant claw
Wim Van der Straeten: I thought it had a decent look but animation wasn't the greatest.
The one with the giant space turkey, or the giant crabs ?
"The giant claw" is the movie with the giant space turkey.
Wim Van der Straeten no it's about a battleship
I absolutely love the movie "Young Sherlock Holmes", I was giddy when there was a reference to the movie watching this!!!
I need that thermos 😦
Man, my asshole hurts just thinking about drinking that much coffee.
Nice Dr Steve reference. Oh, how far the O & A universe has fallen.
Good Dr Steve impression, net time to should get cansa or somthin tststs
I loved this movie when I was a kid! Thanks for this awesome vid, Cecil!
:)
Have you reviewed attack of the the eye creatures?
That's a MAN SIZED Thermos, take no substitute.
Three thoughts:
1) 2:45 - A pipe is glasses for the mouth. Even if they aren't using them, the character supposedly looks smart.
2) I need that white fisherman's sweater at 6:11. Looks cozy.
3) If they ever do a remake, I suggest John C. Reilly as Arnie and Todd Barry as Mitch.
2:01 i have the same thermos! It does not hold a lot but it stays warm all day.
GoodBadFlicks I need to see this for two reasons: One when I was in elementary school I had a monster movie trailer compilation on VHS and the trailer for this movie was in it and two Oregon is my home state (I also found out that the phantasm movies are supposed to be set in oregon too oddly enough) . Incidentally I currently live in Idaho and I recently got to see the first horror movie set Idaho "The Being" which I believe was from the same director as "Blood Diner" (And thank you so much Cecil for introducing me to that movie I absolutely love it ! Namaste.)
You are welcome! The more people who see Blood Diner, the better.
5:03 "Broke back mountain" reference, good one cecil.
I was wondering if anyone would pick up on this :)
GoodBadFlicks You can always count on me Mr. Trachenberg !
"I have a thermos for yooouuu,
Not just any thermos for yoouuuu..."
lol..... i was thinking the same thing
1:16
You magnificent bastard. That is an OG Final Fantasy reference right there.
I remember watching this as a little kid when I would go and visit my aunt and uncle. I use to love this movie when I was little.
Gotta admit, the movie's poster art is awesome.
Arguably this is the best out of The Land Before Time series.
"The incredible... Boat Pulling Out Segment"! LOL!
best of this sunday. oooh the energy in the delivery
Love this movie. One of the best Rifftrax. "Flies KILLED the last 3 sherriffs?!"
Any movie with a giant monster is gold to me
that wat meme got me, i really imagined the monster thinking "wtf guys, seriously?"
Mark Siegel's having a solid track record with ILM
it always comes back to Full Moon.
Did I hear a Final Fantasy IV joke!? Awesome
I love this movie! So happy you're covering this!
Great review, as usual. I love your creative cough, cough...hmmmm... analytial comments on the movies! XD And the production info during the secon half is always vastly interesting. It's great to learn all those facts about these movies and I really tip my hat to the effort you put in finding them. Thanks!
Great Dr. Steve joke I wasn't expecting that.
The Loch Ness monster will one day destroy all of humanity. Mark my words...
At least the whole of Scotland
There is always Champ in Lake Champlain. Good luck Vermont!
"The scary monster them isn't exactly Jaws". BRILLIANT.
That moment when you are watching a B-movie review and a wild Dr. Steve "fluid" reference appears.
LIIIIIINGER LOOOOONGER!
I love the poster!
Do a review of 'Laser Blast".
Friedrich Mencken lol I just discovered it. That was some CRAZY shit.
I second that, would make an interesting vid.
This was one of best one's Cecil! I still can't laughing.
Thanks!
OMG! Did you just make a "Dr Steve" fluid joke?!
I'm pretty sure of it. He's done the Jim Norton Quincy "MURDER" line before...
Ok that was an old Antony cumia shot when he was doing at his house.... Someone is an O&a fan and an TACS fan
Fuck yeah Cecil! Home run!
Yep. I like to sneak in O&A references every so often
3:51 Maybe it was that time of the month for him lol.
The stop motion Plesiosaur is really good
At the beginning, you should go back in with an insert of Cheech Marin on the phone in "Cheech and Chong's Next Movie" (1980): "Oh. Hi, Mr. Stromberg."
The Recap portion has me laughing so hard. 😂
Suggestion: Death Line. Also sometimes called Raw Meat. Great Donald Pleasance film.
Since coming to USA in 2007 i have lived in the state of Idaho. Mitch, Arnie and that senator all live here.. several versions of them actually with just tiny variations on the theme. And i have visited the real Crater Lake in nearby Oregon... no monster but there is a Wizard Island. No wizards though, sadly.
This looks like great fun! The poster looks awesome, too.
"We'll keep looking. Sooner or later he'll float up." uh, okay well carry on then!
Wait a mysterious mist, the monster is the one controlling Silent Hill?!
LOL love the Dr. Steve reference
You could sold me on a Mitch and Arnie spin off based on that one scene by the lake
Damn you! I can't stop laughing!
The monster actually looks like a plesiosaurus. Remarkable!
The critter looks like an elongated and less vicious hippo.
I've always wondered if, with today's technology, somebody could go over a movie like this and toss on the missing effects and make it better. Or would that make it worse because this is in the "so bad it's good" category. I know a re-edit can't happen without missing scenes and a lot of sound work, but a day-for-night filter and a bit of work on the monster to make it blend better, a few extra splashes and Sound FX...
thanks Cecil, love your reviews and breakdowns
You are welcome!
I knew there was a reason I never got around to this one as a kid. I would’ve been so pissed when that T-Rex looking thing on the box, turned out to be the neck of a small plesiosaur most of the time. It is funny that they just rushed to kill it, instead of attempting to contain it, I mean it’s just a living dinosaur. And it wasn’t much bigger than an elephant. Hicks.
This was hillarious thanks!
Thanks for watching!
they are not wrong though crocodiles are archosaurs they are only cousins to dinosaurs. Birds how ever ARE dinosaurs
Lol so random. Only in the 70's......or in the 80's if it had been made by Cannon
The meteorite was too hot to handle, too cold to hold..
I need to find this movie
also that is not a dinosaur, but a plesiosaurus. A Marine reptile that could not get onto land and its neck was stiff
Markus Nävergård he maybe confused it with the one on the poster no one pointing that out
Markus Nävergård - Obvious explanation: it’s the last of its kind, which continued to evolve for the 65 million years between the extinction of the dinosaurs (and the plesiosaurs) and the present.
that makes no sense. Individuals do not evolve, this not pokemon. even if it was in suspended animation for 65 millions years that would not make it evolve over that time.
Markus Nävergård - I said “they”, as in it’s species. I doubt an egg could remain in suspended animation at the bottom of a lake for 65 million years, so I assumed that there used to be a breeding population in the lake (seeing as that’s a much more believable origin for the egg, though I do realize the irony that I’m saying this about a B movie). After all, the movie does open with the characters finding cave paintings depicting other Crater lake monsters, so it couldn’t have been the only one.
That still does not hold up. Such a small population would have inbred themselves to death in no time.
Every monster movie needs a liquor store robbery subplot.
You haven't done any of the Carnosaur movies? Wow.
Had me rolling
6:15 thats deep cut o&a/jim norton reference right there
"Butts... butts... I love butts..."
This movie feels like it was edited by somebody without a script and just had the scenes placed in best guess order.
We the people must have an episode of good bad flicks with pumpkinhead
saw this in a drive in good times
I've been to Crater Lake a few times, and never saw a monster. This movie is fake news.
But they killed the monster, so surely NOT seeing one is actually MORE proof that there WAS a monster.
Nah, closest thing to a lake monster in Oregon, would be running into a wrinkly nudist colony.
Hey. you're right!
I see a monster every morning when I take a dump. You can tell it comes from the depths of hell because of it's putrid smell.
2:32 I wonder if that Massey Ferguson product placement ever paid off.
