31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 16: LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD AND THE MONSTERS 1965 (SOMETHING WEIRD)

A one of a kind children's fantasy from K. Gordon Murray.

The film opens with The Wolf and the Ogre on trail by a court of monsters ruled over by an evil witch. They are sentenced to death and must depend on Stinky The Skunk along with Red Riding Hood and Tom Thumb to rescue them.

This makes for one of the most bizarre, yet entertaining films I have ever seen. I was raised on things like this, not all this high tech crap they have for kids today.

I guess that's why I like it so much. The print from Something Weird isn't too bad and the colors are a psychedelic trip to be sure. A very simple plot with about three musical numbers thrown in for good measure.

It may not sound much like Halloween viewing, but for small children or grown children it can be a hell of a lot of fun. RECOMMENDED!!
