comment |
A 2001 Affectionate Parody of campy 1950s B Movies, complete with nonsensical plot, intentionally stilted acting and cheap Special Effects. Directed by, written by and starring Larry Blamire.The plot revolves around Dr. Paul Armstrong (a man OF SCIENCE), Dr. Roger Fleming (a man OF EVIL), and Kro-Bar and Lattis (aliens FROM OUTER SPACE), all of whom wish to acquire the rare radioactive element "atmosphereum" for various reasons: to do science, to revive a mysterious lost skeleton and to power their spaceship, respectively. A mutant (WHO KILLS FOR KICKS!) and a woman made out of animals factor in here somehow also.In 2008 a sequel, The Lost Skeleton Returns Again, was made by Blamire with most of the original cast, this time in the style of a 1960's color cheapie; it was released on DVD in August, 2010. |

Negated Moment of Awesome: The Skeleton charges towards the Cantaloupe Monster declaring this will be "THE BATTLE OF THE CENTURY!" only to be instantly crushed. Likewise Chinfa's dance is built up as something flamboyant, but it consists of tiny hip twitches. |

comment |
Paul Armstrong and Roger Fleming are both scientists. Paul spends a couple scenes staring into a microscope (and doing other things that could be called experimentation by someone feeling charitable), but otherwise seems more interested in discussing what a scientist's life is like than doing anything scientific. Roger doesn't even do that much, as the actor puts it, he spends all day laughing in a cave. In one scene he does have what appears to be a child's chemistry set laid out on the floor of the cave, though he doesn't actually do anything with it. |

Stylistic Suck: Everything about the film, from the script to the acting, was done in the style of low budget 50s genre films. Even minor gaffes, flubbed lines, and inconsistencies were deliberately added, to the point that it's impossible to tell if a mistake was done on purpose or not. |

Delusions of Eloquence: Much of the script, especially in the case of Kro-Bar. Blamire wrote the whole thing as if he was a hack writer who wanted to have a lot of thought-provoking dialogue, but didn't have the time and/or skill to pull it off, turning it all into mindless babble. |

As You Know: Crobar is fond of pointing out to his wife that they are aliens from the planet Marva. He also likes to explain technology that's just as familiar to her as it is to him. Paul actually pulls his car onto the shoulder in order to explain Atmosphereum and its implications (actual advances in the field of Science) to his wife, who must have already known this prior to being asked to go out to the middle of nowhere to look for some. |

Contemplate Our Navels: After their Heel–Face Turn, Kro-Bar and Lattis invite the Armstrongs over for dinner, and discuss the differences between Earth and the planet Marva, even though a mutant (WHO KILLS FOR KICKS) and an evil skeleton are running around. It goes on so long that it goes from funny to tedious to funny again. |

Took a Level in Badass: Animala first seems to be her usual ditzy self, but then it's revealed to be an act when she abandons the Skeleton after it keeps insulting her, cheerfully saying "Bye bye!" Unsurprisingly, the commentary notes that the audience at the premiere cheered wildly. |

Deliberate Values Dissonance: Played for Laughs as a parody of the casual sexism often seen in 1950s genre films. Betty is very much a prototypical housewife, as well as a Damsel in Distress. Even Lattis, who claims to be from a society where the genders are equal, defers to her husband Kro-Bar without question. |

Perfectly Cromulent Word: Someone asks Paul if, since he studies meteors, he's a meteorologist. Paul laughs, and explains that a meteorologist is a weather man. No, he's a meteographer. Which, if that was a real word, would mean something like "one who writes in the air."note For those wondering, there's actually a few different branches of science, like chemistry, geology, and astronomy, that study meteors, or in Paul's specific case, meteorites. |

Informed Attribute: Animala is said to be a person-shaped mix of four different animals, but is not even a Little Bit Beastly outside of acting like an... animal. At the end, these are revealed to be a fox, two ferrets, and a squirrel. Paul Armstrong and Roger Fleming are both scientists. Paul spends a couple scenes staring into a microscope (and doing other things that could be called experimentation by someone feeling charitable), but otherwise seems more interested in discussing what a scientist's life is like than doing anything scientific. Roger doesn't even do that much, as the actor puts it, he spends all day laughing in a cave. In one scene he does have what appears to be a child's chemistry set laid out on the floor of the cave, though he doesn't actually do anything with it. |

comment |
Bad "Bad Acting": Everyone. Dan Conroy, the actor who played Ranger Brad, plays his character as though he were invokedan actual park ranger who got talked into playing a role in the movie because he had his own costume. Andrew Parks, who plays Kro-Bar, explained that he played the role as an invokedactor embracing what he felt was the role of a lifetime. |

Evil Twin: Inverted in Peter Fleming's case. He's good, and hoping to clear the name of his villainous brother Roger, but the Skeleton is controlling him too. |

Human Aliens: Kro-Bar and Lattis. All they have to do to blend in with Humans is to put on a suit and dress, respectively. |
