Name The Monster Movie

[Mike Scott]

Supernatural?

What is it about "Supernatural" that is unique among all '30s horror films.

[Monsters For Sale]

OK, another clue.

In one respect, this film is unique among all '30s horror films.

I know, I know!

It's the one 1930's horror film that no one has ever seen.

I woke up this afternoon (I keep odd hours) and was lying in bed in that semi-fog of not quite consciousness before surrendering to the urge to visit the toilet.  You know, that murky state between sleep and wakefulness that your mind uses to sort out the coming day's activities.

First I'll start the laundry, then drive over to the market to get a loaf of bread, withdraw some cash at the ATM and fill up the gas tank on the way back.  By then the laundry should be ready to switch to the dryer, etc.

Guess what one thing was wholly occupying my mind as I lie in bed?  That's right, "You're not seeing the big picture"

Curse you, Mike Scott.

It's true that a lot of classic horror fans haven't seen it. Though I believe it's on YouTube, so they should be able to, now.

[Mike Scott]

Nobody is "getting it", so . . .


This . . is "the big picture". See it! It's really big!

[tv horror]

It is a follow up to White zombie from the Haperin brothers

[Monsters For Sale]

I was going to guess that just to be sarcastic - now I wish I had.

"The Big Picture" sound like a studio promotional film with skits from various artists.

This is a horror film?  What's it about?

[Mike Scott]

This is a horror film?  What's it about?

Yes, it's a studio made feature drama (as opposed to a documentary). Most people would call it a horror movie.

What's it about? It's about 85 min.

[Mike Scott]

OK, why is the picture "really big"?

[Monsters For Sale]

OK, why is the picture "really big"?

Early widescreen?

[Mike Scott]

Early widescreen?

Hooray!! And what is the only widescreen horror movie in all of the 1930s?

[Monsters For Sale]

Hooray!! And what is the only widescreen horror movie in all of the 1930s?

Uh...  "The Big Picture"?

I've been looking around for this on the Interwebnet and don't see anything about it's plot, etc.

[tv horror]

The Bat whispers, WHAT! I said the Bat oh never mind.

[Mike Scott]

The Bat Whispers

We have a wiener!

[tv horror]

It was all the talk about bat movies that finally drove poor Mike over the edge or as we like to say here in Ireland he's gone Batty.
