Finally, I got to watch my DVD all the way through, although one cannot help but be mystified by the partial title.
Stephen King's The Mist... or, more accurately, The Mist(er men)!
Poor old Roger Hargreaves must be turning in his grave at this complete rip-off of his masterpiece of literature!
Of course, there will be those who state that The Arrowhead Project was a dimensional breach, creating a portal for all the hordes of Lovecraftian terrors to pass thru.
Not quite!
The clue lies in the title: Arrowhead Project - and who exactly are Arrowheads? Only Mr Rush and Mr Christmas!
A portal into a cartoon world, releasing the Mister Men from their horrible 2D realm into full 3D reality, and making the most of it!
And oh, the terrible havoc Mr Tickle wreaks once he gets his ticklish mitts on Norm the Bag Boy by the loading bay doors.
Don't Panic Mr Mainwairing, is then the order of the day, as the more negative Mister Men stalk through The Mist, with the gnashing and the wailing and the rending of flesh and the partaking of ever so many eggs in a wok.
Unless Little Miss Naughty has snaffled and scrambled 'em, the thieving chavtart. "Turkehy? Inna oven? Ahm fuckin' nickin' it inneye. Purple face? Bovvered?"
Still, it was worth it for the money shot of Mr Tall striding over hills and fields.
Strange thing about the Mister Men (and Little Misses) - is that they seem to be breeding. When I grews up, there was a certain number of the little buggers - Mr Bump, Mr Greedy, My Fussy, etc. Now, it seems that there has been an influx of Mister WhoTheFuckIsThat?
And how come they're all swingers? They must all live in Mister Men World, yet they're forever visiting each other and staying for a few days. It's like going on holiday, only spending it with the "liberated neighbours" down the road!
And it's all sex, sex sex! Apart from Mister Tickle* molesting schoolkids in class by way of his extremely long arms, there's schoolkids evading class by being temped out by paedophilic blue clouds, with the lure of getting a ride on a big bird, where there's room for one more up top.
I don't know. Next it'll be out with Mr Bump and Mr Fussy, and in with Mr Bondage and Mr Gimp. Not to mention Little Miss Dominatrix, or Little Miss Skank Ho Bitch Motherfucker.
With Kingpin Mr Pimp keeping them all in line...
But not line dancing...
Unless it's the Can Can...
* NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE OTHER MR (JON) TICKLE OFF'VE BRIANIAC, WHICH IS SCIENCE ABUSE, NOT CHILD ABUSE.
