Unaware of this Stan fills a bucket of "water" from the well. It doesn't take long until he and Ollie are absolutely hammered. Passing motorist Mrs Hall (Mae Busch) also gets drunk much to her husband's (Charlie Hall) fury...
A highly enjoyable comedy short, a simple idea which is pushed to the max. Silly and perfectly timed with a good dose of slapstick.
A very strange film. In the early postwar Philippines jungle a dying war criminal, Langdon is given a choice by Satan (Vic Diaz). He can either continue to live by serve the Devil forever or die. Langdon chooses the former. We then switch to the present day (well early 1970s anyway) and a bad man is buried. This apparently was Langdon's previous host, Langdon's next host is businessman Philip Rogers (Josh Ashley). Langdon's mission is to awaken evil in the people he meets. Langdon/Rogers has an interesting way in serving Satan. As well as treat his now-wife Julia (Mary Charlotte Wilcox) with indifference and try and pass her off to Rogers' brother, he likes to go out at night, change into a disfigured demon and eat people...
However, by now Langdon is tired of being Satan's slave and wants out of his contract but unfortunately he has no way out and must serve Satan forever (small print eh?) Even when the police led by de Santos (Leopoldo Salcedo) shoot him (in demon mode) it has no effect. Langdon finally finds some kind of solace with a blind man (Andres Centenera). who was a notorious wanted criminal in his younger days but now is patiently awaiting the end and peace...
Truthfully, this is a rather confusing film. It is entertaining enough nonsense about a flesh eating monster loose on the streets of Manila though the story doesn't really go anywhere. The demon make-up is quite well done and Diaz' comedy Satan adds a little extra dimension to what is overall a rather plodding film. There are a number of annoying plot holes too. Despite all that is is enjoyable.
The "teens" get up to various hi-jinks including getting Dodie (June Preisser) to pretend to be a player on the team, and Freddie (Freddie Stewart) getting mixed up with the singer Chi Chi (Lita Baron) - who earlier does a bizarre horse based musical number...
Complete nonsense of course but charming enough with light goofy humour a-plenty. There are a number of cool jazz numbers too, Freddie Stewart had a really good voice. Just don't expect any actual teens.
A bizarre film containing much torture and death, though all with a strange air of camp. The Crimson Executioner is a notorious maniac who is put to death in his own castle. Hundreds of years later that castle is inhabited by a deranged bodybuilder called Travis (Mickey Hargitay). When an erotic film crew turn up at his castle, he initially turns them away but when he sees his ex Edith (Luisa Baretto) is amongst them he changes his mind.
Then the deaths begin, in horrible and bizarre manner including a strange spider web with booby trapped darts (which is in fact a complete flop). Rick (Walter Brandi) manages to avoid being killed by an incredibly slow bed of nails. Having beaten up Travis' rather poor henchmen, he discovers Travis' torture chamber where he prances from torture to torture, including putting Edith on a rather slow grill...
It is all rather weird. Despite the sadism and torture, the sheer campness of the Crimson Executioner as he jumps around just makes everything so absurd. Somehow it makes a film detailing the painful torture and destruction of young men and women rather silly and very cheesy.
