John Landis on "Schlock" & "Kentucky Fried Movie"

[@811stever]

This is a gem. John is a great story teller...

[@TheCoolOwen]

And he murdered 2 minority children and got away with it because he is the “type” of Hollywood elite that doesn’t suffer consequences

[@GonzoLarry]

Thank you for posting! Such a wild guy -- yet looks so distinguished!

[@karajames67]

what u mean

[@TheCoolOwen]

Distinguished child killer.

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

He's a great story teller!

[@mikehunt4986]

Yes he is!

[@TheCoolOwen]

He is a murderer. Murdered 2 children. Has no remorse.

[@timburr4453]

​@@TheCoolOwen that was accidental

[@TheCoolOwen]

@@timburr4453 he knew what he was doing was reckless. He didn’t care.

this is one of the best things I've ever seen

OMG, I have only seen the first few minutes of Schlock today but the story of him DIRECTING the film in a gorilla suit is very funny! Thanks for posting!

"Catholic High School Girls In Trouble" and "Eyewitness News" . . . Ah yes, I was a wee lad of 12 when I saw it in theaters, just a year after seeing Jenny Agutter nekkid in "LOGAN'S RUN" . . . such nice mammaries -- uh, memories, that is. The "Scot Free" parody board-game faux-commercial was brilliant!

[@m1lst3r89]

Was Jenny naked in Logan's Run?

[@patricktilton5377]

@@m1lst3r89 OHHH yes . . . in 2 scenes: the one in the ice cave with the robot Box (she gets out of her wet clothes and, voila! she's starkers; and the second one she's swimming with Michael York in the same pond where Taylor, Landon, and Dodge swam in PLANET OF THE APES, where they see Nova's footprint. Also, the first scene in which we see Jenny she's wearing a very revealing, wispy-green dress showing a nice amount of skin. Geezus, but I'll always love Jenny Agutter, my first screen crush!

[@m1lst3r89]

@@patricktilton5377 ah, yes...i almost forgot about the cave...because it was fairly brief. I have seen the film couple of months ago.. I remember the lake scene, but there you don't see nothing. If you want to see Jenny nakkid, try Walkabout or Equus❤️

[@patricktilton5377]

@@m1lst3r89 Don't forget about the in-the-shower love scene in AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON. Dave Naughton was one lucky bastard and, yes, wouldn't I like to be a Pepper too!

[@m1lst3r89]

@@patricktilton5377 ah yes, I nearly forgot about that. Hey, it's John Landis film too! I also had fond memories of Amanda Donohoe. Such a hottie.

[@BossChronicles]

thought he was persian he did a good job in his role into the night

[@RIUUI007]

Rick Baker's backstory sounds identical to how Peter Jackson started out. Using his moms oven and everything. Baker is 11 years older than Jackson though, so Peter Jackson was Rick Baker 2.0

[@nathanforester5993]

In Trailers From Hell Landis comments on the alternate title used for Schlock (i.e 'banana monster').

[@chrismolina3197]

He should write a book of his early experience in film

[@integral]

Was actually Claude Raines who had that exchange with Bogart in Casablanca. Not that it matters. 😁

[@PuzzleProjectorBlog]

Why can't I get Schlock on DVD?

[@ZeranZeran]

too valuable

[@thenightman541]

arrow video put it out on blu ray

[@Esus4]

If you have a Roku you can find it by doing a search. It's free on some hidden channels.

[@PuzzleProjectorBlog]

@@Esus4 I bought the bluray and it's awsome. :)

[@williampetersen9915]

The conversation he referenced in Casablanca took place between Rick and Captain Renault (Claude Rains.) Sydney Greenstreet played Ferrari.

[@timburr4453]

amazing he remembers the name of the kids parents. who did the gorilla suit

[@Lone432345]

Yeah just don't bring up the Twilight Zone movie.

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

I wonder if Jennifer Jason Leigh is friends with John Landis...

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

@@DavyDredd14 I thought is was funny...

[@m1lst3r89]

Why?

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

@@m1lst3r89 Jennifer's dad was killed filming The Twilight Zone movie directed by Landis when a helicopter flying overhead during filming crashed and the helicopter blades decapitated him and two child actors.

[@m1lst3r89]

@@ClassicJukeboxBand wait, her Dad was Vic Morrow?

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

@@m1lst3r89 Yep

[@Floridacoastwriter]

He doesn't do helicopter scenes anymore. Why? Google: Twilight Zone and manslaughter deaths of actors.
