Episode 0103 - Mad Monster


 


This web site requires use of the Macromedia Flash software for this feature.


 



Movie Summary


 Short: Commando Cody: Radar Men From The Moon: Chapter 2 

Cody one of our select operatives on the Moon, attempts to steal the hostile Moon Men's atomic ray-gun.


 Movie: Mad Monster: 

Dr. Cameron, using a drug without FDA approval, turns his maintenance man into a slathering beast for the purpose of killing all his peers who labeled him a madman. The irony that his behavior only confirms their diagnosis completely escapes Cameron, a deeply bitter man. Eventually, a go-getting reporter stumbles upon the extremely obnoxious conclusion and Cameron is brought to justice. A movie that pulls no punches, it features a scene in which the monster kidnaps an adorable little girl from her bedroom and, we later learn, mauls her, tears her throat out, and eats parts of her. With Anne Nagel and George Zucco.

Reflections

In the early shows. there was no prologue, the thinking being that the Mads controlled the experiment. Eventually it was decided that Joel and the 'Bots were the focus and should therefore be highlighted up front. The scripts at that time were written by committee, everybody just throwing in stuff until we had a big pile of words, and I think it shows. Tom's romancing the blender was originally done at TV 23, with minor changes. "Nobody drinks from my girl" always gives me a chuckle.
