LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD AND THE MONSTERS (1962) This is one of the rarest movies of all time...It will be in DVD-R formatted disk.... Movie is OOP and in the Public Domain.... "For me, this is the holy grail of weirdo kiddie movies, the ultimate wicked fairy tale, a morbid, bizarre case of Grand Guigno" for kiddies in the most odd permutation of genres ever concocted. This rarely-seen feature lies truly beyond description. Those zany folks at Churubusco-Azteca took two of their favorite cinema categories, the wacky fairy tale and the gothic horror movie, and spliced them together willy-nilly to make a ludicrous, entirely diabolical thrill-ride for youngsters. The film starts off menacingly, as a clearly nervous narrator speaks of the evil forces that rule the world. In case that doesn't sufficiently spook the wee ones, we are then subjected to a compendium of monsters (my favorite is Carrot-Head, the monster carrot) including ogres, vampires, robots, witches, skeletons, dragons and Siamese beasts, as well as a catalog of atrocities too numerous and unbelievable too mention, until Little Red Riding Hood and her soul-mate, Tom Thumb, with the aid of fairy tale perennials Stinky the Skunk and the Ferocious Wolf, conquer the evil witch and her band of grotesque ghouls. After this traumatizing descent into hell, the film ends on a high note as our heroes waltz through the wicked forest warbling the excruciating tune, "Just Give a Little Whistle." Imagine seeing this as a kid in 1965 shopping mall America; expecting an innocuous fairy tale, you witnessed instead a disabling nightmare fable!" Its odd how this Studio Azteca kiddie flick is probably more horrifying and nightmare inducing than any of their actual horror films. "Little Red Riding Hood and the Monsters" is simply put one of the most bizarre things I've ever had the fortune to see. Its just as surreal as the infamous "Santa Claus" (produced by the same studio), and thats saying a lot. Its odd that this was intended as children's entertainment, because its one of the most uncomfortably creepy things I've ever witnessed. Ranging from jaw-dropping bizarreness to just being annoying, is it any wonder I ended up loving the little thing? As a kids film, its a complete failure. However, when viewed as a cult film, its utterly beyond belief. What you will receive is an excellent quality dvd. Excellent picture/ and sound. Also, Will come in DVD CASE and DVD cover graphic insert, so it will Look impressive in your DVD collection. Please ensure your dvd player can play DVDr compatable. disks.
