For 100% guaranteed pure, UNCUT! UNCENSORED! unadulterated schlock. The following preview is rated Z--for zeebs only: 1. The ORIGINAL 'Zilla w/ Raymond Burr edited in for US audiences (accept no substitutes or cheap imitations!). Not only do we get to see the rubber suit eat the train, but you can almost make out "Lionel" on the car, and you CAN see the screws holding the trucks on! SPECTACULAR! DON'T MISS IT! In a theatre near you. The rest are just (how shall I say it??--oh, well, I give up) cheap Japanese copies. 2. The PULLMAN scene in Some Like it Hot, with Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon & Marilyn Monroe. Classic! 3. The Elvis/Beach/Spy/War/Love/Commando movie TOP SECRET! with Val Kilmer and Omar Sharif. A great send-up of the Railroads(?) and other things of East Germany. Kilmer's German lesson in the compartment is hilarious, and the scene where the train pulls out of the station (or vice-versa) at the border is worth the rental price. As is the East German Women's Olympic Team. Vintage Zucker/Zucker/Abrahams. Watch it several times, so you get MOST of the nuances! 4. Any Mack Sennett silent flick. Almost every one has either a crossing near-miss between a flivver and an ATSF or SP pax train or a car (usually full of cops) going at high speed in-between two passing LATL or PE streetcars, or both, on double track, IN THE STREET IN TRAFFIC!, and coming out nearly two-dimensional. And remember, they did their own stunts on the streets and roads of LA! A simpler time. Take that, OSHA! 5. And not a movie, but well worth it--the episode of I Love Lucy where the Ricardos and the Mertzes take the City of LA out to LaLa land and Lucy keeps pulling the air. Who needs Vitameatavegemin???
