In terms of non-scary-mutant movies, I'm a big fan of "Attack of the Killer Shrews." The giant shrews are adorable puppies with cardboard noses!
'Hell Bound'
Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Have you seen Night of the Lepus?
Dude, do not mock Night of the Lepus. It is a classic. Classic what, I'm not sure, but I'm very fond of it. I suspect it is part of the Evil Bunny Alliance's plan to lull everyone into complacency regarding bunnies, so that no one will be able to resist when Clovis finally takes over the world.
It also has DeForrest Kelly.
And Janet Leigh! She eventually did learn to avoid cheap motels.
I kind of want to know what cause the night of the lepus. But I just want them to tell me, I don't want to watch the movie.
After reading about how Harrison Ford's multi-billion dollar box office career developed in the wake of Nick Nolte's refusals, I can see how the scary drunken mug shots came about.
How is it possible to consider Cate Blanchett and Jenna Elfman for the same role?!?
I kind of want to know what cause the night of the lepus-
It all starts with one radioactive bunny. There's a lab doing experiments out in the desert and someone brings their little girl in who sees the bunnies and feels bad about them and steals one and let's it go out in the desert.
This bunny then does what bunnies do best. Or at least most often. Thus this one bunny begats a adorable terrifying giant swarm of bunnies with a taste for blood. Human blood.
But they weren't a human/bunny mix? Because that's how the Scifi channel would do it.
(P-C - a flock of passenger pigeon/human hybrids = ecological disaster.)
No they aren't human/bunny hybrids. They are giant bunnies though. I'm sure they didn't have a budget for anything like costumes, even leftover Easter bunny costumes. They have the bunnies hopping through a model train set to show how big they are.
There was one movie that SFX'd their giant locust by taking a picture of grasshoppers on a picture of a building. I'm not making this up.

MST3K did that one. THE BEGINNING OF THE END, I think. With Peter Graves as the scientist hero.
