Just watching this again conjures up those old images of family and friends watching the movies with us, while our parents all sat in the kitchen and drank coffee (or beer) and played cards all night while we young un's watched the monster movies.
That, and the old memories of Jiffy Pop, Pepsi in real glass bottles, and Celentano pizza in the little boxes. I get very wistful and sad knowing this time will never ever be again. I truly miss those days.
@Shawnster65 my memeories are of me begging my father towatch these movies because a game might be on or some tv special was playing. easier to watch them when they ran saturdays in the afternoon.
It's a ton of fun doing these, and I learned a bit from it too. Thing is, I've got a backlog of 7 years of vid I need to edit from tapes! That's gonna be a bit of a drag.
In the pre-production days, I was orighinaly the one who gave ' Tap the soundtrack, and suggested the length of the song from my own memory. It was great to get it spot on the first time (the music part) but the facial graphics were an uphill battle. This looks great!
Hard to believe we started all this hype with just one repro video!
the music was later used in the "Coneheads" sketches on SNL.

Same here. Good to hear from you again too!

NICE, Tap! I can never be sure where the music ends, but I think the length is spot on.

Pretty cool, my man. But then again, you made the video so it was already pretty much guaranteed that it would be a good one, :-)
Now stay tuned for, "Horror Hotel", tonight on Creatures Features, next on WNEW channel 5, New York.
