Movies That Witness Madness Part III

By Ian Watson

"Moon Monsters Launch Attack Against Earth!"
The low-budget monster movie is a real guilty pleasure, especially when the monster suit appears to have been made using household items or purchased from a thrift store. You could laugh yourself into a hernia watching a guy in a gorilla costume and diving helmet, who lives in a cave with a bubble machine, clomp around Bronson Canyon in search of grade-z starlets. Seen with friends and/or illicit substances, there's nothing funnier.
Movies That Witness Madness is an ongoing series extolling the trashy, schlocky, stupid joys of midnight cinema. In part 3, "Monster Suit Mayhem", you'll discover which film left a drug-addled Stephen King helpless with laughter, how Neil Sedaka was humiliated by a jellyfish and find out which director got their start on a Korea-made King Kong knock-off. We'll bring the cheesy flicks, you bring the beers for this bonkers b-movie extravaganza!
