Late Night Movie House of Crap: Pia Zadora in Rock Aliens

15 Nov

Pia Zadora. Of her career I can only say this: She had one.

1999 Frasier (TV series) Jill (voice)
1995 Favorite Deadly Sins (TV movie) Pia Zadora
1994 Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult Pia Zadora
1990 Mother Goose Rock ‘n’ Rhyme (TV movie) Little Miss Muffet
1989 Troop Beverly Hills Pia Zadora
1988 Hairspray Beatnik Chick
1984 Pajama Tops (TV movie) Babette Latouche
1984 Voyage of the Rock Aliens Dee Dee
1983 The Lonely Lady Jerilee Randall
1982 Fake-Out Bobbie Warren
1982 Butterfly Kady Tyler
1964 Santa Claus Conquers the Martians Girmar

That’s it. From imdb.com that’s her career. (Notice that three of her credits are as herself!) I left nothing out, although she does sing and put out 7 or 8 albums and toured.
I hope she sings better than she acts. Can you explain her appeal, which I assume she must have had although I can’t see it? I admit she is kind of cute, but not cute enough to want to see her sing or act. A holiday commercial with a puppy around Christmas might be enough.

And now, as recommended by author T E Stazyk of http://testazyk.com/, here is Pia Zadora in Voyage of the Rock Aliens. It is so 1980’s it may make you sick.

And it isn’t just Ms. Zadora, the suck is spread around to the rest of the cast.

There’s more, too much more, on YouTube, but I’ve subjected you to enough.

Late Night Movie House of Crap 2fer: Ed Wood and It Came From Hollywood

Hello there crappy movie fans! This time around, Mr. Blog is proud to kill two birds with one stone. Now, imagine that the stone is really just a wadded up piece of paper and the birds are flimsy cardboard cutouts. That’s right gang- we’re talking Ed Wood today.

I figured the best way to show the sublime genius of Ed Wood is the way he’d do it himself-  using stock footage.

From the movie that is a classic in its own right, I bring you John Candy with  A Salute to Ed Wood from It Came from Hollywood!

 

For a bonus, here’s Gilda Radner with Apes!

And lastly, some really bad Musical Memories! (I am a huge Chip and Emil fan.)

And for those of you complaining that I promised Konga and Gorgo, yeah yeah yeah, I’m getting to it.
