Flicks: The Love-Ins (1967)


Like WOW, Dad - it's ... so crazy significant, see?

In the late 1960's, manlings eradicated a subspecies of human called "hippies". Hippies were terminated due to their lack of hygiene, poor grammar and an all-around no-goodnik general attitude. These strange creatures erroneously believed that flowers had the power to stop bullets - probably due to being hepped up on goofballs.

The Love-Ins is a quasi-documentary of this patriotic genocide based on the life of Timothy Leary and shot in the heart of the 1960's San Francisco art and music scene. The Love-Ins features Susan Oliver (one of the Green Ladies on Star Trek TOS) and a cross-section of Haight-Ashbury musical groups such as the psychedelisized cover-group The Chocolate Watch Band.

In closing, the Sleaze-A-Saurus heartily congratulates all contemporary scaleless manlings on their ancestors ability to thin their own herd while wishing a fond farewell to no-goodnik hippie types.

Flicks: Dinosaurus! (1960)


Outside capitalistic America, dinosaur makes you extinct!

In an unlikely precursor to Jurassic Park, two perfectly preserved dinos are dredged outta the Caribbean Ocean near St. Croix by an engineering crew only to have a freak lightning bolt Frankenstein up the beasties. The dinos are inexplicably joined by a uni-brow sporting Caveman named Dumpy (seriously) and spend the next 80 minutes being ridden, or alternately, chasing the cast around the small islands screamin'.

The picture stars Ward Ramsey, Paul Lukather and Kristina Hanson - Hanson reportedly quit acting shortly afterwards (who can blame her?) to become a 6th grade teacher in California. Paul Lukather, however, went on to enjoy a long and lucrative career that's lasted to this day having appeared in 77 film roles including voice acting for Metal Gear: Sons Of Liberty (2001), Pirates of Darkwater and three of the Blood Omen/Legend of Kain video games.
