Cheepnis. Let me tell you something, do you like movies?
(YEAH!)
I love monster movies, I simply adore movies, And the they are, the better they are. And cheepnis in the of a monster movie has nothing to do with the of the film, although it helps. But true is exemplified by visible nylon strings attached to the jaw of a giant spider. I'll you, a good one I saw one time, I think the of the film was "It conquered the world" (YEAH! ) And the... Did you ever see that The monster looks sort of like an inverted corn with teeth around the bottom. It like a, a teepee or a sort of a rounded off pup-tent affair. And ah, it's got fangs on the of it, I don't know why but it's a threatening sight. And then he's got a frown and, you know, mouth 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 made around the 1950's. The lapels are about th at wide, The ties are about that wide and this short, And always have a little revolver that they're gonna shoot the with. And there is always a girl who falls down and twists her ankle. Hey hey! Of course there is! You how they are, the sex and everything, Twisting their ankle on behalf of a ice-cream corn. Well in particular scene, In this scene folks, they ah, they didn't 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 much two-by-four attached to the of the Thing as the guy is pushing it out, And then obviously somebody's goin': "No! Get it back!" ... and they it back just a little bit as the guy is goin': "KCH! KCH!" Now cheepnis.
Right. And is cheepnis here: One two three four...
