Cheepnis. Let me tell you something, do you like movies?
(YEAH!)
I love movies, I simply adore monster movies, And the they are, the better they are. And in the case of a monster movie has nothing to do with the budget of the film, it helps. But true cheepnis is exemplified by nylon strings attached to the jaw of a giant spider. I'll you, a one that I saw one time, I think the name of the was "It conquered the world" (YEAH! ) And the... Did you see that one? The monster looks of like an inverted ice-cream corn with teeth the bottom. It looks like a, like a teepee or a sort of a rounded off affair. And ah, it's got fangs on the of it, I don't why but it's a very threatening sight. And then he's got a frown and, you know, ugly and everything, And there's this one where the ah monster is coming out of a cave. There's always a scene where they come out of a cave, at once. And the rest of the cast... it musta been around the 1950's. The lapels are about like th at wide, The ties are that wide and about this short, And they always have a little revolver that they're shoot the with. And there is always a girl who falls down and twists her ankle. Hey hey! Of course is! You know how they are, the sex and everything, Twisting ankle on behalf of a little ice-cream corn. Well in this particular scene, In scene folks, they ah, they didn't wanna re-take it 'cause it musta so good they wanted to keep it, but they... When the monster out of the cave, over on the left hand side of the screen you can see about this much two-by-four attached to the of the Thing as the guy is it out, And then obviously off-camera somebody's goin': "No! Get it back!" ... and they it back just a little bit as the guy is "KCH! KCH!" Now that's cheepnis.
Right. And this is cheepnis One two three four...
