Coming Soon: The Scariest Horror Movie EVER!!

[Nyarlathotep]

The Banana Splits Return in New Hanna-Barbera Horror Movie

This is not an Onion headline People. No surprise that it's going to be on SYFY, the same fuckers who gave us Sharknado.

I bet the murderer is Fleagle. I never trusted that shifty-eyed bastard.

[Nyarlathotep]

I only vaguely remember it myself.

[Pyrrho]

Nothing can compare with the original horror.

Except maybe the Indians mascot, Slider.

You watch the opening sequence and you just KNOW that they are performing for an audience of people chained up in some abandoned factory or warehouse, just toying with their victims before the poor wretches are consumed in a stew. Hell, at 11 seconds in, you see one of them capture a small child, undoubtedly intending to devour it later. When they are in their buggies, they are simply hunting "The Most Dangerous Game"

Who's brilliant idea was this hot mess?

Sounds like the SyFy channel’s

I heard about this on a podcast: The Crack Master.

A rare cartoon that ran on Sesame Street back in the 70s, but which gave little kids nightmares. A lot of kids were terrified by this for years. It's not very scary for an adult, but I guess I can sort of see it. The girl has dead eyes. Black eyes with no iris or pupil. The idea that the cracks in the wall might morph into animals or even scary monsters, plus the weird atonal music. All combine to give a creepy overall effect. They stopped airing it when they realized that it was scaring the shit out of little kids.

I remember bits of Sesame Street here and there from my own childhood. Don't remember this though. Interesting. Thanks, Anax

I can kind of see how that might be scary to a tiny kid. But it was worthy.

You mean the character is black.

And now, it has a trailer.



I knew that Drooper was a shifty bastard.

[Nyarlathotep]

Pure genius.

Squeeze one last bit of juice out of a sucky property nobody is nostalgic about. :BigGrin3:

There is a horror video game (that I have never played, but is quite popular with the kids) called Five Nights at Freddy's which deals with the animatronics at a Chuck-E Cheeze type pizza parlor coming to life at night. It's quite popular in its way. My theory is that this is an attempt to ride on the coat tails of that but they either couldn't afford the rights or (more likely) someone already had them tied up.

Still, I AM gonna watch it. There is no doubt about that. I feel somehow obligated.

[Doctor X]

That way madness lies!

Madness!

MADNESS!!

Somehow I neglected to actually watch this movie...until today.

It was every bit as stupidly fun as it sounded and looked.

And I was quite right not to trust Fleagle

I always thought Snorky was a pedo. It's always the quiet ones.
