The Return of Count Spirochete (1973)

[Lupton2000]

Sounded like Paul Frees was one of the voices.

I've been searching for this video for years and I'm elated that I finally found it. First saw it in Basic Training in 1978, and looking back, I'm dumbfounded that all 100-plus soldiers watching that day, that not a single one of us burst out laughing. I told many people about this film, but scant few believed me, probably because I told the story differently. As I remembered the film, I recalled that the stars of the film were "Gonorrhea the Gargoyle" and "Count Shankula."

They showed this to us in Boot Camp in 1975. It did a good job of driving the point home. Keep in mind the target audience was a bunch of 18 - 19 year old kids who grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons.

[phrexus]

Man, this thing is so poorly animated it's kind of charming.

¡YO SOY RHINOVIRUS!

[stravinskyrocks]

Awesome synthesizer score! The corkscrew handles on Count Spirochete's castle and using red corpuscles as rafts are nice touches.

[RobochaoXX]

[pacob77]

Look at the way the map of the world doesnt inlcude usa and zooms into europe as if thats where VD comes from!!

[felixjazzage]

@pacob77

I have it on good authority that 99.9% of all cases of the clap originated from Amsterdam.

[ytromano]

Wait...

Death's pink hood has cherry-red lining? And a dark, round spot in the middle?

He's a walking, talking vag!

[BATCHARRO]

Look VD, I’m really disturbed for you. Imma Let you finish. But Cancer is the deadliest disease of all time. Of all time!

[jimbrown257]

@BATCHARRO

" But Cancer is the deadliest disease of all time. Of all time"

...Not even close. According to the World Health Org, only lung cancer is in the top 10 and kills WAY less people than heart and brain disease. If you are talking about the survival rate of those who have the disease, once again, cancer is no where near the top. Smallpox, Spanish flu, black plague, malaria and TB are at the top; no cancer is even in the top 15. Cancer is relatively serious but not comparitively

[valhar2000]

@jimbrown257: Cancer does have one "advantage" over other diseases: if you live long enough, you are guaranteed to have it. Some doctors conjecture that this is the reason cancer is more prevalent now than it used to be: now that people are dying less from communicable diseases, hunger and violence, they live long enough to get cancer.

[moses1290]

@BATCHARRO Yeah... but not exactly communicable... Aside from genetically.

[BurningThreeLobedEye]

These diseases are so cute!

[JonasAlbrecht]

Ah, my old friend Gonorrhea.

[borm91]

That's not Yul Brenner's voice, is it?

I TOTALLY want to re-design & cast this trophy!

[doobiesmoke15]

So if syphilis is a vampire and gonorrhea is a demon , what kind of monster would would HIV be?

@doobiesmoke15 According to many conspiracy theorists, Frankenstein's Monster...
