Theodore Tugboat (1993)
We salute "Theodore Tugboat " series
I had spent 4 yrs. as a tug boat specialist in the Navy when my family stumbled upon this show back in it's day. We watched when we could and were very unhappy when it was taken off the air. The stories have friendly characters and non-computer generated scenes and back drops. My children enjoy shows, especially on PBS, that make them and the characters solve problems. We really enjoyed this show due to the fact that it does, in a child-like fashion, teach problem solving skills. In a video/T.V. world w/ trains, veggies, planes, and monkeys it's nice to see them find an original story line. For those who didn't like it, there's always purple-Dino's, tel-tubs's, and bu-boo's. For those who have 2-5yr. old kids, my family recommends you look into this series, your kids will enjoy it.
Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (1972)
children
this movie was an awesome Saturday thriller. it kept my wife up for days freaking her out as a kid. the music by led zepplin is awesome(whole lotta lovin) and really add the to tension and suspense. don't care for satanic rituals but do like scary movies and this was a classic cult movie! It's about some young "college age kids" who are into satanic rituals, doped on drugs and want some action on a remote island. They dig up a dead body, orville, who was definitely an interesting name for a person and was chosen perfect for his statuesque personality. he made a great zombie and nice twist at the end. They take him back to this secluded cabin in the woods where they play up to Orville and dance with him. Kind of sacrilegious with dead people. Well, when they performed their satanic ritual, they awoke the dead and they try to escape their coffins. While playing with Orville, they come after the kids and attack them. I would love to get this movie on DVD or video. if you can find it let me know.
