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