Three Stooges Spooks in 3D part 1 of 2

[KingAbacus2009]

good thing I brought my 3D glasses

[pbskidstv1]

The anaglyphic 3-D process wasn't done very well who ever encoded this 3d video.



[RockinRob69]

Oh....a BEE Bopper!!! Dig that craaaaaaaazy Bopper name! beebeebeebeebeebeebeebee!!! Cooooool man! Real George!! Gimmie some skin.......gimmie some skin!!! Shemp always was #1

[Tazzman]

@RockinRob69 Maybe that is where the Big Booper got his name from. Like Duran Duran got theirs from the movie, Barbarella! Just a thought!

[RcUniverseGuy]

how does anyone see any 3d here? ive got the glasses both types the red and blues and the newer style ones neither work at all the needle is the only thing that worked a little bit but just barely lol

[CptAJR]

That needle is scary in 3d!

[lucasjohnson98]

1:32 "oh, biba pá!"

[JoeCool031619]

Now those 1st person shots make sense. They must have shot this short for 3d & just kept the b&w version the same....

[hooweelewis]

larry, 'we better take another look at the picture so we will recognizer her.'

shemp, 'that girl has a beautiful PAIR, , , of eyes...'

( . ) ( . )

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

i have 3d glasses (different pairs) need to find them...

[FreddyKOPinhead]

Shemp is sexy.

[sammyb1929]

@FreddyKOPinhead looooooooooooooooooooooool

[lucasjohnson98]

@FreddyKOPinhead hahahahahaha!

[LoveTimeLord]

one question...who in the world owns a pair of 3-d glasses at home? It's awsome that a stooges episode is in 3-D though. lol

[RcUniverseGuy]

@LoveTimeLord i do lol

[drafe007]

@LoveTimeLord i do!!

[BoneThugsEternal]

They do should this type of 3D with the new Transformers movie. say it's gonna be 3D then just show a extreme close up of Shia driving at random times. and then back to regular viewing. lol i bet so many people would be so pissed lmao.

[ElxTacoxKid]

it won't work and i ain't going, love it when one the stooges tries to get brave with moe

[michaeljayklein]

I've never seen it mentioned, but have you Stoogephiles noted that starting with Shemp joining the boys, the gags got weirder and weirder (today, I think we would say they were "sick"!); an example here is the notorious "Shemp-Bat"--e-beeb-beeb-beeb-­beeb! Now THAT is sick! Moe's one opportunity to give the audience an eye poke and they botched it! Darn it! This was lots of fun--thanks for posting!

[35westst]

Other than the first 10 seconds of credits, there is no 3D effect at all, the quality is so poor. It's just "power of suggestion" you think its 3D just as everyone praised the Emperor's New Clothes. It was of course 3D in theaters, using polarized glasses, vs red and blue, but not red and green as stated above.

[EarlyFilms]

They ran this in 35mm dual-strip polarized 3D at Film Forum in NYC a few years ago. What an experience! I also have 8mm excerpts of this in 3D - my first experience with 3d movies. Thanks for posting the complete film!

[HighPacheChief]

I think this was a little better than the Michael Jackson 3D tribute on this year's Grammy Awards...but not much.

[michaeljayklein]

Hahahahahahahahahaha! Oh man, that was a good one! Thanks for making me laugh!

[Rlotpir1972]

@EarlyFilms It was also in 16:9 format.

[LogSNES]

Just put on the 3d glasses haha

[ElxTacoxKid]

isn't that bat the greatest, lmao everytime I see it. thanks for sharing

[143AC]

Dear Bucky, I don't think that Ms.Randall was in any other "Three Stooges"comedy shorts..not as far as I know?

[Danman917]

Where are the spooks?

[bucky468]

Watch Part 2 w/the gorilla (is that a real real ape?) & you'll get more for your money. HAHAHA!!

[krazywolfie]

I saw the Full Effect! AWESOME!!

[jakestooge34]

When I first saw this, I thought the 3-D effects were pretty good for its time.

[morbidious]

This is one of my favorite all time Shemp-i-sodes! I used to watch this one every Halloween after trick-or-treating. They'd have a 3 stooges marathon with all spooky episodes and I'd eat my candy and watch em late into the night! Aaah the good ole days. How I miss being a kid!

[TheCastellan]

Only problem with 3D movies....you get a headache after taking the glasses off. :P

[cinemabon]

Red left eye glasses provided with some home videos work best for this rather blurry offering. I love this corny old film... I last saw it theatrically presented at the 3-D film festival held at the Los Angeles Tiffany Theater back in the 1970's.

[stoogeophile]

Sure, ha ha! What a moron! No one Stooges fan can ever think that this role could have ever been played by Curly. He was DEAD at that time!

[shempbat1]

Shemp's the bat, you imbeciles. Why do you think Shemp says "What a hideous monstrous face"?

[bucky468]

Really?!! Doesn't sound like Shemp. Doesn't even look like him to me.

[Rlotpir1972]

@shempbat1 Moe: Look who's talking...(slap!).

[yogafan6500]

Imagine seeing it in Imax 3D that'll look really scary but funny.

[jedibri81]

thats shemp as the bat!

[hippi28]

3d works quite well ;D

[Curbjaw]

That's Curly as the bat, this was filmed right before he died, and was released the year after he died if I'm correct.

[Doobie1975]

This was filmed in the Spring of 1953 which was a year after his death

[rowdyroughman]

my bad i screwd up jack or ivering played the bat there moe shemp and curlys forgoting brothers lol

[rowdyroughman]

i can tell you who played the its not shemp or curly it was probly jack or iveing moe shemp and curlys older brothers nothen is known about those 2 guys

[rowdyroughman]

what if south park made fun of the stooges this way stan as moe kyle as larry cartman as curly kenny as shemp butters as joe besser lugie that kid from ep tooth fairy as curly joe comment on my channel

[BLACKIESBOY]

Man, I love that beginning! Especially those faces they have when they zoom back out, so frackin' awesome!

[Doobie1975]

Wasn't this the first short to be filmed after Shemp's mild stroke? I know he was having mild strokes by this time period.

[railcar123]

That jive talking riff that Shemp goes into at 1:33 is hilarious....and capped off with Moe throwing the pen into his nose. People will still watch and love the Stooges 200 years from now!

[krazywolfie]

at 4:17 are those glasses

[railcar123]

Shemp as the bat at 5:18 is TOO funny!

[lelillois78100]

It's not shemp, it's curly!

[railcar123]

Yes it is! I always thought that was Shemp. You can see that his mouth was a little paralyzed from his strokes. This must of been shot sometime in 1951 because Curly died in January of 52.

[bucky468]

No way!! Curly died before this short hit theaters. No proof merits that it's Shemp either. The lip quiver is different from his. Sounds fabricated. Then again I don't really know.

[SheriffTankStoner]

At 6:35 is a comically scary example of breaking the fourth wall

[jrsimpson85]

this is my favorite three stooges short involving Shemp.

[Sabin06]

dont think he was looking her eyes lol

[pickard72]

you just KNOW when the Mad Doctor put the hypodermic needle in the chair that SOMBODY is going to sit on it!!!

[HaggisMcCrablice]

@pickard72 -- A sharp object left on a chair for some sap to sit on seems to be a signature Stooge gag--I've seen it done with a pincushion, thumbtacks, a bear trap, and a German pickelhaube helmet.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that, ironically, one of the production crew was blind in one eye, so he couldn't see in 3-D, and didn't get what all the fuss was.

[emoviebuff87]

I just watched this with my 3-d glasses. I didn't see any 3rd demension!!

[Rlotpir1972]

I hope this episode and the other one, "Pardon My Backfire" gets re-released in 3-D with a pair of 3-D glasses on a future Three Stooges DVD Collection. On a side note, 1953 was THE YEAR of 3-D movies and shorts.

[YoshiAngemon]

You mean Volume 7: 1952-1954? That might work.

[pickzzzzzz]

I wish I had some 3-d glasses! They use to do the 10 best in U-City MO at the varsity theater. 2 or 3 would be 3-d and they always provided glasses!

[Tork110]

I dare someone to top the Shemp Bat. Dare.

[PirateOfTheInternet]

Lol, I actually have some anaglyph glasses. This is pretty cool!

[NEXTGENSKYN]

if the out line is red and blue then use red and blue glasses not just blue

[gangstametalhead]

LMAO, I have the 2D version of this episode on an old VHS taped off of WSBK back in 1992 or 1993

[stellaluna4u2]

What a hideous monsterous face!! LOL

[gerberpunkrocker]

i got half the effect with my blue glasses lol

[Snowyowl900]

I love this episode. It's my favorite.

[143AC]

another favorite "Three Stooges"horror spoof..

with Phil Van Zandt and Tom Kennedy(The comic/

character actor..not the tv game show host)as the

villians:"Dr.Jekyll" and"Mr.Hyde".

[bucky468]

And the lovely Norma Randall guest starring as Georgi Be Bopper. Not quite as gorgeous as Christine McIntire or Nannette Bordeaux who were regulars during most of the Shemp era but still pretty enough. Was Norma in any other shorts?

[luridplanet]

Finally found a use for my 3-D glasses. Thanks!

[harriter88]

Oh a Bebopper dig that crazy bopper name abebebebe cool man real jor gimme some skin gimme some skin

[railcar123]

LOL! Awesome!

[paulisdead]

I'm watching it now with red/blue 3D glasses. The crappyness of youtube washes out most of the detail but you can still get a little bit of a 3D effect.

[DrClay999]

Groovy.

I want3d glasses :(

[natwolfffan24]

the part where moe pokes our eyes out is awesome

[crackman164]

I have this on VHS in its orignial format. One of my favorite shorts of T3S with Shemp.

[drafe007]

far out!!

[Grenadier1944]

You'd actually need Red-Blue glasses to see it as was intended. I tried Green-Blue, and the color is driving me batty.

[143AC]

Vetrain "Three Stooges"foils Phil Van

Zandt and Tom Kennedy(The Comic/

Character Actor)play "Dr.Jekyll"the mad

scientist and his hencheman:"Mr.Hyde".

[nog222]

Mo looks like one of the managers here (or maybe it's the other way around).

[143AC]

A Funny"Three Stooges"short!

[MITCHELL650]

Thanks for posting this! Havent seen this one in years!! Keep posting great job
