I made this thread in the main Entertainment Forum, then realized I might get a better response here:

"Chewzy"
I know that this thread is going to end up on the 4th page by the end of today. Nevertheless, I decided to make it.



So, I was wondering if anyone has seen the film 'Forbidden Zone', directed by Richard Elfman (Danny Elfman's brother) and starring Danny Elfman, Susan Tyrrell, Hervé Villechaize and Matthew Bright, amongst others. Please, someone tell me you've at least heard of it! D:

That movie's genuinely terrible. But It has music by Danny Elfman and the Oingo Boingo cameo is great. I remember I thought it was the s**t back when I was high school and in my anti-establishment punk stage ... Now I realize I was just really, really pretentious.
 
     

Techno fascism-- F*** YEAH!

Many years ago - the channel couldn't have been any more than 3-5 years old. I think it was before they started running The Young Ones, though.

Did anyone get to see it on tour through the US?
The film was only played at art-house and independent theatres.
They gave viewers a raffle ticket with the movie stub. I won a Richard Elfman signed copy of the movie poster.
Now, it's framed and prominently hanging in the living room.

This is the best thing that Scientology has ever produced.

This and Jeffrey Tambor.

I'm not sure how I feel about the movie... I'm not sure I'd be able to watch it again... well, maybe just the part with Danny...

That said... I wish there were more movies like it.. creepy in whole NEW ways! Hazzah!
