We’ll be right back with the next page of Armageddon Creeped Out, after this: Jeff Wood’s SnowBuni and HoniBuni are watching the tube, when they suddenly get a visitor from The Outer Limits! It’s the Andromedan from the classic pilot episode, “The Galaxy Being”! See what happens when you fiddle around with the volume?

Addendum: There will be a pause in the current adventure because of technical problems; the artist’s computer is on the fritz.

Video Goodie: After that creepy Cronenberg double feature last post, how about a fun old Bert I. Gordon flick from 1958? Okay… Attack Of The Puppet People is featured down below the banners.

Yes! Death’s own right-hand man Dead Duck and his cute assistant Zombie Chick meet Fission Chicken! Hotcha! You can read Jay P. Fosgitt’s great comic online! Want more? You can order the new Dead Duck book from Ape Entertainment. Hey wow!! (And below is my rendering of DD & ZC, attending to an alien dead guy.)

(By the way, you can also get The Collected Fission Chicken Volume I at Amazon, too!)

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a Fission Chicken animated feature? You can see a short ‘teaser’ for such by clicking the left thumbnail below! The right thumbnail will display the earlier “Squash” bit:

Many films by director Bert I. Gordon concerned mis-scaled people or monsters: The Cyclops (giant mutant guy), The Amazing Colossal Man (reversal of The Incredible Shrinking Man), and Beginning of the End (giant grasshoppers) all came out in 1957. In 1958, Gordon continued with Earth vs. the Spider (giant you-know-what), War of the Colossal Beast (sequel to Colossal Man), and today’s feature, Attack of the Puppet People. It’s about a mad dollmaker (John Hoyt) who has developed the scientific know-how to shrink people to doll size. He keeps them in suspended animation in clear tubes, and wakes them up to party on his workbench! He does all this ’cause he’s been so lonely since his wife left him for another guy. But he also has to deal with constant interruptions from his old pal Emil (Michael Mark) (a puppeteer who keeps wanting to talk shop), a little girl who wants her doll repaired, a police detective, and so on. Among the “doll people” (who don’t attack so much as try to find a way out of their screwy predicament) are a couple of secretaries, a mailman, and pushy salesman Bob Westley (John Agar)! There’s a fun review over at Dante’s Inferno. See this movie in nine parts on YouTube!

And here’s the spectacular theatrical trailer:
