War of the Worlds: Angel of Death

[dreamer_easy]

A televisual gem from early 1989. Beyond bad, beyond goofy, there is foog. This has foog in buckets.


EXT NIGHT

A building Toronto. Pan up from the bottom to the top, slowly.


INT NIGHT

An alien is being held at bay by an Terminator-ess whose hands send out Atari death rays.

Q'Tara from Qar'to: Take me to your leaders!

Alien: To life immortal! (He flings himself down a lift shaft.)


EXT NIGHT

The building. Pan down from the top to the bottom, quickly.

Alien: Aaaaaaahhhh! (Squitch.)


Also features a scene of wholly unintentional forced perspective in which Norton appears to have shrunk, and Harrison is holding him in his hand.

Oh God. I'd forgotten about that show.

Thank you for bringing this back to my head. We used to watch this, stoned and/or drunk, in the small wee hours. I used to love this show (for certain, strange, values of love).

F'r'example, the episode titles are all bible quotes that (as far as I could tell) had nothing to do with the story in question. We had to make up your own titles in order to talk about the show. Some of my "favourite" episodes, I only know as "Bucket O' Brains" and "The Mighty Quinn".

And the sheer *foog* of it all.

Like the alien who wanted to drill peoples brains out (for reasons known only to himself), and did this by pretending to be a barber.

Marvellous.
