[yellowbluejuly]

[lakeviewviking]

Kinda like the octopus from BRIDE OF THE MONSTER with legs.

[micaabrivio]

squidward tentacles

[famalaasshole]

Not an ed wood film

[18nito]

[MrColigings]

Didn't Pier Angeli die after making this?

[humongousaldo]

Terrifying!

[cricritube100]

WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!

[monk22yrs]

this dumb thing actually played channel 9 nyc tv waaay back.

[unclebugspayton]

Hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaa­hahaaaaaaahhahahahahahahahahah­ahaha

[kestkr]

Yeah they are! The movie prometheus that's coming out is going to be mostly animatronics, props, and costumes.

[Tralman1965]

Based on real events....

[iwillknifeya]

I swear shitty graphics, props and costumes are more scary than the stuff nowadays. Ah, nostalgia :'D

[principe71436]

BAAAAADDDDDD!!!!!!

[boardskins]

One of the first monster costumes commissioned to Rick Baker, special effects mastermind.

[trollturd]

Shouldn't octaman have 8 arms and legs. He is more of an hexaman then a octaman.

[trollturd]

Shouldn't octaman have 8 arms and legs.

[Playstation26Express]

holy oil? Only Supernatural fans will get that :)

[RockLobster2402]

Is it me? or is that the Opera singer from Total Recall?

[mickeymousebiker1]

This is a little better than Frankenstein Island (but, not much). 

[thomas423211]

i bet that octaman can give some good BJs

[Dreadheaad]

why are they so mean to justin bieber?

[hisnameisdan]

youtube recommended this because i watched a video called "Indiana Rep Says Women Will Fake Rape Or Incest To Get An Abortion"

[punkjames2]

something that the japanese women like?XD

[scrumsie]

Who wrote the haunting score??

[CoyoteBuddy]

Personally I would have blown cigar smoke in its face to "burn up all the oxygen," but this works too.

[Gingrsnap43]

Frank Zappa would have loved this movie. Pure "cheepnis".

[muzboz]

I feel really sad for Octaman.

[gustanlovesyou]

there is only one possible way to kill Octo-Man. and this is it.

[MrBluewatson]

DON'T TOUCH THE TRIM!!!

[Liverynew1]

wait...the thing died because the oxygen burnt up around him due to the small flames. QUICK EVERYONE BLOW OUT THE CANDLES IN YOUR HOME!!!

[TheChristChris]

He's being bullied into a dance-off!

[ExtrackterYT]

Did It die or just got bored and went to sleep?

[shinobie91]

Wohoo squidward

[crusty21]

Killed by the man, just because he was different.

[vodkashotgun]

I have seen enough hentai to know where this is going...

[quidnick]

The most terrifying thing in this is the sheriff... looks like a pedo.

[DarthBobify]

tentcale porn!!!

[148tinus]

Great... BBQ Calamri!!!

[betty99xx]

bad film you knoowww tr

[dnich154]

Scratch that reverse it no "thing" this time



[dnich154]

Still thing think Stan Lee came up with all those characters on his own?

[MattHunter2222]

What a coincidence, I have eight vaginas

[ShotgunKlaus]

I for one welcome the almighty Octaman!

[tjhoenecke]

Was this the prequel to Octomom?

[mewtoo007]

why don't he just jump over the fire whle its low enugh rather than dance around like he's had one too many drinks?

[Pilot1360]

old movies are bad looking graphics yes but there cool

[romerozombie85]

better than avatar

[almishti]

saw this when I was a kid. It has a certain charm to it.  Go Octaman!!!

[SonicThunderBYG]

According to IMDb, Octaman came out in 1976, but I digress. Rumor has it, Octaman is running for the 2012 presidential election. Guess who I'm voting for?

[Marureenu]

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going...

[tjhoenecke]

@Marureenu roflmao

[TheFarjack]

............……...…

[blowout60]

Octaman for President!

[UmbertoLenzi]

have my baby Octaman

[abSOULuteD]

ALL HAIL OCTAMAN!!

[humppppa]

oh fucked up

[Vehement78]

Octaman is shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiit

[donniedarkodevotte]

Yeah I remember my first acid trip. Just ride it out, Octoman. Ride it out.

[SamuraiGhost63]

Im here because I had to see what it was before I stuck it in my Queue on Netflix and um hell no XD

[thewhorockband]

WTF SERIOUSLY WTF

[Deckardpr]

omg kill that thing!!

[bugzapper57]

Octaman died for your sins.

[caosfran]

por qué no la vi al cine... :S

por qué no trabajé en ella de extra... :S

[bleedingdiru]

where is his other arms? I see only two and to be an octopi you need eight legs, what an epic fail lol

[SpitfireBoy86]

Remember kids, in order to kill of a 6' octopus man...BUILD A CAMP FIRE NEAR IT!

[inferno232]

RIP Octoman. If only this film was made in Japan, your fate would have been different.

[Freebleeper]

Didn't they show a clip of this movie in Gremlins 2?

[girlgarde]

Yeah, they did actually. In the office/studio building where the movie takes place, the clip was shown as a promo in the studio's "monster movie" program. When I saw it, I was like "how can Octaman be a threat? What's he gonna do, growl and hit me with his tentacles?!".

[Freebleeper]

@girlgarde Yeah and the host of the show called the movie "Attack of the Octopus people"... guess they didn't had the rights to the real name of the movie.

[rathraven1313]

@Freebleeper Yes. Octoman was Rick Baker's first job. Since Rick did the effects for Germlins 2, Joe Dante used the clip as a little inside joke towards Rick.

[AceProductions91]

@Freebleeper  That's what I thought too!

[IAmDeadlySerious]

If i saw that thing, i would grab the nearest fire flower

[TheAnnemarie818]

am i the only one getting hungry ?

[pee235]

what did he do to die?

[earcher5]

Octaman will fuck your shit up, even if you don't have any shit

[safh12]

ITS STUPID ITS RETARDED ITS OCTAMNA!

[jervey123]

why does octaman only have 6 limbs?

[chpmatt]

Of course he's pissed off. Nobody can fill his eyeglass prescription!



[TheBramble2696]

rest in peace octaman ... You killed him you bastards !!!!!!!!

[DrumPersonRay]

was octoman high?

[MAW00001]

I can see this being turned into a remake at least as good as the Nightmare On Elm Street remake was!

[ZebrasFirst]

Since the creature passed out and there's a fire already going....I wonder if they had it for dinner that night?

[smalltownman73]

Cool looking costume. Too bad that the producers spent the entire movie's budget on it.

[EpicFailGirl]

Costume looks really good compared to the rest of the movie.

[Saberwolf116]

Thumbs up if Pharyngula brought you here.

[Cha4k]

@Saberwolf116

Thumbs up your butt hole

[djlumimies]

No wonder he needs to sit down after such work out. And next the legs!

[17PinkSugarElephants]

octaman's obviously inebriated

[hjoermungand]

did they really put the END into the trailer? haha

[crazynintendoguy]

octomom's ex-husband.

[Vidiwell100]

@Peanutbutter LOL, you're right. That's great!

[Vidiwell100]

Arrrrrg! NO, Not the flashlights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That would be a cool Halloween costume though.

[TheRobocopter]

Better than 2012

[hootyhaha]

I love B movies like CHUD, Humanoids of the Deep, Demonic Toys.. but Octaman was just too hard for me to watch and enjoy. There's a certain art to being a good B movie, and this one did not really grasp it. It's not enough to put a man in a suite to really count as a good B-Flick. I dont know what that magic is that makes one work in my world, I just know this one doesn't have it.

[pamonhadoce]

Squidward you made​a movie?

[minimanjonesy]

does he eat people or what cos im confused :S

[TheLongorm]

LEAVE OCTAMAN ALONE IM SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PeanutButterZombie00]

Sooo...Octo Man lacks the ability to jump over 12-inch flames? Awesome.

[dltanner99]

Horror novel  see video book trailer

[davycrocketful]

a haa..roasted alive..in a ring of fire..no more octo aliens coming to this planet..!

[unholyimage]

Maybe after about 500 mcg of LSD, locked in a room full of strobe lights, playing death metal at full volume, with all my malicious friends poking pointy sticks at me, this movie just might get a wee bit scary.

[nosferatusbutt]

All they needed to do was to send in some Jap's with a Ginsu knife and all is well.

[FLOE994]

que garcha por dios...

[godstomper]

They didn't have to kill it.

[farrobraun1]

for fuck sakes fall already

[FamilyOfMan1975]

"....the fire will burn up the oxygen all around him!"

Really? I don't know what school he went to but they should fire the science teacher.

[TheCGIMaster]

No! not squidward!

[cryptid85]

i know this is the 70s but even back then this must've been a d movie!

i have a fur bigfoot costume and could make a scarier movie than that!

[Nowekian]

and yet.... still better than Manos!

[aViewwithaRoom]

monster-fail

[itsmekameronrossi]

only 6 limbs?

[jimmieskaggs]

One of the best movies in Hollywood history. wondering why it wasn't nominated for an oscar.

[txunderball]

"Keep away from him, Steve, the fire ought to burn up the oxygen all around him!"

This is THE best line ever. Period...

[tolittletime]

@txunderball because being surrounded by a ring of raging one foot flames is deadly. oxygen depleted calamari anyone? XD

[Aijamin]

Poor Otaman, he has eight limbs and only four of them are functional.

[Ponce1390]

I'll make it my mission to watch this movie ASAP.

[kwakis]

Poor Octaman! All he really needed was a friend!

[AwWDesignZ]

'keep away from her steve the fire ought to burn up the oxygen all around him"?! LOL

[1sababoy]

Damn! I WANT THAT COSTUME!!! :-)

[MofoNsh]

i cant take the suspence. fall god damn it

[danny086]

why it's called octaman if it only had 4 arms and 2 legs?? LOL

[PoluxCastor]

@danny086 To fit on a PG-14 rated movie XD

[jonstfrancis]

He only wanted a hug :'(

[armageddonmachine]

The world wasn't ready for Octaman.

[AmazonRiderRX]

@armageddonmachine Or has it Octaman that wasnt ready four us

[mcplanetearth]

octaman powerful performance

[RenegadeHex]

Octaman come in peace.

[mibaja]

why the heck did he died?the fire used all of the oxygen around him ?XD

[stiggyh]

@mibaja "why the heck did he died?" -he die cuz he was too large for life :) rip octaman

[themightycelestial]

So how did he become Octaman?

Was he bitten by a radioactive octopus?

And did he ever team up with Octopussy?

[skinsman3]

WTF ????

[TrollinForLolz]

Nice vision Octoman. You have two eyes dickhead, not 7.

[Ozarkeree]

@TrollinForLolz Haha, I'm not the only one who yells at the monster!

[Maverickslayer744]

@TrollinForLolz

Could be compound eyes, like that of a fly.

[Scheiblerfunk]

@TrollinForLolz or five or four its switching numbers

[funnymunky46]

All I can say is I seriously think this movie is scary. I am absolutely terrified and I will probably sleep with the lights on tonight. JK, they did as best they could but now looking at it...

[dynagravitomagnetic]

A belt with another longer set of tentacles connected between the legs and lower set of arms may have been possible. Perhaps with the budget they had, Octoman should have walked on to a dimly lit stage in a backwood smoke filled nightclub and moved around in front of a microphone while a voiceover told really sick and perverted jokes. Bottles hit him, and crowd then chases him out the back door! Oh wait, We just saw the end! - he was so stoned, one flashlight gave him an epileptic seizure!

[wiggles305]

this movie looks horrible

[PointOfLight1]

Can anybody explan why a guy with 8 limbs and two eyes has some strange kind of fivefold view?

[krokeman]

That's exactly how I perceive the world when I'm drunk.

[Ozarkeree]

@krokeman Are you also Octaman when you're drunk?

[ChelskiBonjourino]

I see Squiddly Diddly has branched out into horror films instead. Times must be hard at Hanna-Barbera.

[desperatetragic]

pure awesomeness thsi will get you laid fosho

[speadzone]

he just wanted to go back to the sea

[xXStrawberryxMisaXx]

o.o Octaman will be remind as the poor takoyaki man ._.

=D HE TASTE DELICIOUS WITH SOME SOYSAUCE THOUGH!

[Kaseyyasey]

awe, he's kindof cute. :3

[Blkwolf99]

H-H-How can there be something so campy?!?! HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSABLE!?!?!?!?!?! *head explodes from too much cheezyness

[lestat34208]

um :O

[sabalouie2000]

THIS ONE REALLY SUCKS!!! THANX 4 SHARING THIS CRAP!!

[chairmanofthebored1]

Say, that reminds me of the stretch octopus I got for Christmas one year, lol. Oh no, don't let him grab you with his testicles, lol. Octadudes just wanna have fu-un, lol.

[chonitin]

not fair, they killed the octomom's favorite uncle

[6ejg9]

some one call spiderman!!

[IronSheik2000]

Octaman owns Hogan!

[HolyCity2012]

Who do you guys think would win in a fight between "Octoman" vs a Predator?

[derpdederp101]

lol this was on tv here about 3 months ago

[HolyCity2012]

@derpdederp101 Did you watch it?

[derpdederp101]

@HolyCity2012 part of it, it was so bad haha

[dannyboyflint]

there was fire and even flashlights all over the place, octaman was like "swoooosh", confused and all.

[mrmootheirrev]

All he wanted was to predict the outcome of soccer matches.

[YRRAL1969]

I used to watch this movie when i was a kid. It aired late at night on Channel 9 in New York. A classic hahaha...luv it !

[rainbowmuppet]

....

[sL1PKNOT1995]

squidward revenge apon the world

[TombMan12]

Spongebob - After The Canccelation

part 1

Squidwards rage

[EpicBear194]

wow

[schltz2]

Who knew Squidward had a short-lived movie career?Go figure,lol!

[goreesha]

It's this kind of crap that made all the octamans go extinct, all that shooting them with flashy lights and setting tiny fires on the ground.

[homodementicus]

EPIC FAIL!

[captainamerica1965]

that was booring.

[nccodyssey]

Any relation to octamom?

[whitedemon222]
