Familiar Faces: Halloween Left-Overs (Part 1)

[@EastsideShowSCP]

Its time for me to binge your Halloween special series!

[@felixleidig8307]

yes

[@milanh.8220]

I dunno but I actually think the Bride is kinda hot. Her face is a bit unusual but not bad. : P Also, glad to see you release stuff man. Made my day.

[@jaketucker2559]

I agree the face makes her look like one of those aristocratic women but the body is obviously young enough

[@KevlarNinja]

You got to love how CR actually took the time out to find images to use from creepy fan animations to make a point. Now THAT'S dedication.

[@ReTrOtAkU]

Regarding Marge and the radish rosettes, I think them being a stupid choice is the point. Marge states, and I quote, "Oh, radish rosettes! These are hard to make. They are a very advanced race". I imagine that this was included as a sneaky joke for people who are into cooking, since only they would realize that radish rosettes are all but a complicated to make and that as such Marge's "they are a very advanced race" comment and her choice of radishes over anything else imaginable is extremely ridiculous, so it's not surprising that most people (I presume) never really questioned it. Maybe you could make the argument it's a failed joke since most people don't recognize it as such and just assume that what Marge says is correct and entirely sensible. Regarding the Bride of the Monster in Mad Monster Party, I actually find her cute in a weird kinda way. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to part 2 and more videos in the future (you've been away for quite a while).

[@Nunubotz2]

maybe it has something to do with the fact that the original idea behind marge hair is that she is a half bunny human, yeah the idea was scrapped but you can see it in the first simpson videogame

[@MattEldritchHorror]

Leave her alone, she just thinks they're neat!

[@EastsideShowSCP]

You get bonus points for the Red Green Show reference :)

[@Daviticus042]

Well, more of a clip, really... Also, Chad, have you EVER been to a real cabin...? Finally, it's a myth that sugar makes kids hyper. Kids are just hyper in general, especially when they're excited about something...like Halloween.

[@Werewolf_Korra]

Ok, the fact you have making Christmas as the theme is pure genius. Also, I remembered the monsters ring from when I was a toddler, I eventually discovered and read the book by Bruce Coville (way different, and pretty cool, ending) during elementary school, and looked up the special just this past year.

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

There's no Wikipedia entry for that book. Mind telling me how is it different?

[@Werewolf_Korra]

FamiliarFacesChannel​ after getting sufficiently even, he sees the bully getting seriously harassed by three much larger thugs, and in a fit of anger, he turns the ring three times during a full moon, both of which are taboo, and turns into a winged demon with red scales. He scares the tar out of bullies and rescues the little bully, and reveals his identity, and the bully realizes he had been picking on a kid who could become a monster. However, the ring is now gone, and he can't change back, and has to track down the magic shop, which moves like that castle from krull. But, he can fly now, so he tracks it down, and the owner tells him that it'll wear off on it's own, but there'd be side effects, and it ends with him realizing he was now would transform into a monster (still fully aware) during the full moon, and decides to embrace it and have fun. If you go to the local library, it should be under Coville; part of a pretty good series, from what I remember. the shop is the main piece of the story, like Mr Needfuls shop from Rick and Morty.

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

noobmaster117 So the joke I cobbled together from Spaceballs and Demon Lover was closer to the real ending. That's nuts.

[@MrRobot1984]

I remember The Monster Ring show and book, along with Jennifer Merdley's Toad from the same series.

[@Moonbeam143]

Wow. I remember the "CBS Storybreak" show. The memory of it has been locked away forever, but now I remember it. I got to look up the episodes.

[@NineTailsChaosFox]

The book the Monster's Ring is based off of is fairly good.

[@Daviticus042]

So...radish rosettes are exactly what I thought they were. 😮

[@TheAnchorArmsChad]

1:41 I know that voice.... That's the crazy Teacher from I Am Weasel!

[@yourpersonalsupernova3493]

A stop-motion Halloween special? I never...! Where has these been? I mean....My childhood was deprived!

[@WobblesandBean]

YUSSS! Foster's Home Halloween special! Ahhh...you got good taste, CR. I just wish it wasn't so low on your list!

[@seanmyster6]

I remember the Rusty & Buttons Christmas special! If you ever do another Forgotten Christmas Specials, you should include that and Pinocchio's Christmas, granted that you're able to find them.

[@ChapBloke]

17:05 Well, it _is_ a warm place...

[@Enshohma]

Better late than never... Seriously man, I love your insightful reviews, and the wide variety of otherwise obscure subjects you unearth. I do hope we see more from you in the near future as well!

[@charlesman8722]

11:03 *ahem clears throat* 'That's da Joke.'

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

+The Great Red Dragon 87 You suck Rainier

[@GregTheLion]

3:55 you're right in the 'Zone', mate.

[@ThatRandomEncounterGuy]

I'd actually like to hear your thoughts on this old Halloween special I used to watch all the time when I was a kid, even though you've probably heard of it: Witches in Stitches. It's pretty goofy and super corny, clearly low budget but still really fun and nostalgic.

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

wait for part 2

[@geoentronecromancer]

Gotta agree with a lot of the other commenters, the Bride is quite attractive. :33

[@SilverZeo88]

I remember catching a breif segment of The Monster's Ring when it was on, but it left that big of an impact on me when I first saw it... now for the Cpt OG Readmore and Beanstalk special...

[@andrewkful]

Oh hey you're not dead!

[@TECH097]

You probably have gotten this before Andrew but that Avatar and that comment just go so well together.

[@Oliviagarry69420]

Ngl Rusty and Buttons is something I might like if I saw it when I was little because it looks so adorable!!!

[@ripleyandweeds1288]

I was gonna ask how CR knew about 'creepy fan animations' then I remember that he's the same guy who does art streams where he draws oddly sexual things and did a whole list on hot animated moms

[@ZeldaEd123]

So The Monster Ring is a lighter and more kid friendly version of Devilman?

[@matthewclark5612]

CR posting new videos makes me happy.

[@weirdaljedifan2]

I'm trying to find this one Halloween special about three witches. The older, more serious one's head is separated from the body and some kid find's her and gets a party together to show her off and her sisters are trying to get her back.

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/op-so2Cfeb98grc

[@weirdaljedifan2]

FamiliarFacesChannel Thank you so much!

[@RBComics]

Yo Chad, where do I find "Mad mad mad Monsters" I'm seem curious to check out the full movie and plus I had a bit of a crush on Monstress.

[@voidmaster45]

Awesome, keep up the good work. I was worried you weren't doing a Halloween special this year.

[@Stormkrow280]

The magic shop series was one of my favorite childhood books

[@GrizzlyAdams94]

Oh man, this was hilarious XD I was killing myself laughing at the Spaceballs clip XD

[@TorridPrime217]

11:53 I DO, you Pony-Hating Hipster! Raw radishes are DELICIOUS!!! [Seriously, I eat them raw whenever I have any]

[@Smacgregor88]

Wow, another forgotten Rankin Bass, and another remake from their earlier ones along with Daydreamer to Emperor New Clothes with Danny Kaye from Peter Cottontail as a starring role, Peter Cottontail to Easter Bunny Coming To Town to First Easter Bunny, Rudolph's life being retold over (Rudoplh's Shiny New Years) and over (Rudolph and Frosty X-mas In July) and over (Golden Film Rudolph), the Pinocchio serial series to his Ximas Special, and Santa Claus Coming to Town to Life and Adventure of Santa Claus.

[@FlashTimberwolf]

I love your videos, CR! Can't wait to see more!

[@Davidwash3r3]

You forgot to say that the Foster's special was in 3D! It was freaking cool in that whole cheesy B-movie fashion

[@crcoghill]

dude, FamiliarFacesChannel how'd you forget the main thing about the Foster's special: when it first premiered on Cartoon Network, it was shown in 3D, where you had to go to wal-mart or other places to get the 3D glasses...though, back then, almost everyone had 3D glasses.

[@chrisbarone515]

The 3 beginnings of Mad Mad Monsters actually come in a very proper order. They just got it all backward. 15:24 15:19 15:12

[@BeefStuu92]

Bag, I Remember Mad Mosnter Party, Yes it was So Swell to See Drac as a Flirt. Lol!

[@MissMuttonmeat]

I love your videos, please continue to make more! :)

[@godzillasaurbuttersworth3176]

I loved Monster Party as a kid!

[@hikimi18]

This is good so far, can wait to see part 2.

[@Dimensioneer88]

0:21 Which Witch is Which 3:48 Foster's Home - Nightmare on Wilson Way 5:42 The Monster's Ring 9:19 Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror 12:07 Mad, Mad, Mad Monsters

[@glowworm2]

"So he can finally stop playing with himself in the basement." XD!

[@nathanforester5993]

Oooh yes, I remember Monster Ring. He rkind of looks like if Disney's version of the Beast was more monstrous.

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

FamiliarFacesChannel Ah, so here's that Halloween specials list you were referring to in your When Good Ghouls Go Bad video! I'm interested to see which other Halloween specials make the rest of the list when Part 2 is up! Also, I'm curious CR, I was picking up a lot of similarities between The Monster's Ring and R.L. Stine's The Haunted Mask, but you didn't seem to mention it. I know you mentioned in your Top 13 Goosebumps Books video how much you liked The Haunted Mask, so I was wondering if you noticed the similarities between HM and MR, and in your opinion, which do you think did the kid-uses-magical-accessory plot better? Personally, I like the way Haunted Mask portrayed it over Monster's Ring.

[@yourpersonalsupernova3493]

Well, fuck a top-hat, all THESE YEARS I thought she said Spanish Rosettes. ALL THESE YEARS!!

[@BrenTenkage]

WHERE IS THE SECOND HALF, ok thats it *pulls out a bat with a nail in it* someone is about to get a terrible trick if he doesn't cough up the rest of this treat

[@FamiliarFacesChannel]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5qtommEbJZ2a6c

[@willowmcintire21]

So I looked up the casting for Mad, Mad, Mad Monsters because I was convinced that Baron Frankenstein was voiced by Bobby "Boris" Pickett (Monster Mash) doing his famous Karloff impression. Nope! Turns out it's Bob McFadden; Lion-O from the original Thundercats!

[@MWolfL]

I have read online that Lisa can sometimes be a bit of a know-nothing-know-it-all, at least in the sense that she thinks she's better than everyone else only she's not so different. Obviously she got it from Marge. Marge probably thinks of herself as a connoisseur of food or something. Dunno. Also I've never seen that Simpsons episode, but I can already tell that the twist in it is that the aliens are actually planning to eat the Simpsons and are fattening them up. Or at least that's what it appears to be. Probably was inspired by one of the more famous episodes of The Twilight Zone: How to Serve Man. Saw Mad Monster Party last year and really enjoyed it. I loved how that Igor sounded like Peter Lorre, since he's one of my favorite caricatures. Thank Looney Tunes for that.

[@erikjohnsonillustrat]

A welcome list as I'm still coming off the Halloween bug.

[@ViruZ42]

It might be apocryphal but I did hear early on that Marge's hair was supposed to be hiding rabbit ears but that got ditched for being too outlandish the radishes might be a hold over of that severed bit.

[@Falcovsleon21]

12. Wait, Chucklewood Forest? Wasn't that a Mario & Luigi location? Don't they brew Chuckolacola there? Also 2:44 that sounds like Mona Marshall to me. 11. Creepy fan animations? Hmm.....has ZONE ever done anything Foster's related? 8. Oh so that's what Korey Koleman was comparing Hotel Transylvania to. Why have I never heard of this until now?

[@matthewclark5612]

I actually read The Monster's Ring! As for the bride, I feel like she's halfway between attractive and ugly.

[@MultiBlackmind]

5:43 Holy shit, I actually remember reading this book!

[@goemonbeatsnaruto]

rusty and buttons, I mainly reconised them from chucklewood critters series

[@mackenziegivens6061]

Don't mind me, just doing a practice run for my Spooktober mega binge!

[@glowworm2]

I clearly recall that Rusty and Buttons Halloween special--I remember Buttons putting on one the burglar's bear mask and Rusty remarks "You look like your dad when he's angry." XD. Seriously though--why is one of the burglars dressed up as a bear?

[@DJKrimskull]

Ween Notes: Part One 1: Short for Educational Love. There getting crushed by nuts. AKA a Mindf**k. Ed was a Former Disney Animator 2:This was aired in the Third Dimension. 3: The Book has a Plot Twist. 4: I Think it was the Writer's Intention. She was going to be a Rabbit. 5: My Idea was that they wanted to air the 1967 Movie but couldn't. I think it was for Syndication so they could choose one of them. I think she's Ugexy.

[@Nakiatakai]

I like eating raw radishes and known to just sit down and eat them when ever I'm hungry.

[@seanpatrickcain2]

11:14 the magic of James Earl Jones :)

[@boxorak]

16:49 Eh, I don't see the problem. The bride's Ugly Cute at worst...though, that might be because I'm a twisted little man. :p

[@dag1984]

16:48 All things considered she's really not bad looking.

[@heighbeut99]

Ever notice how the kid from The Monster's Ring looks like a kid Rick Moranis?

[@wesleybcrowen]

The video barely started and I already have a lot of questions about those families in a communal life..

[@ChookaaFindlebean]

i love it. i love it. do you love it? i love it.

[@CharlesMoss091]

17:23 Shape of Water

[@Magmaster13]

As someone with Culinary training Radish Roses are really hard to make but honestly why would anyone want a plate of it?

[@animagusurreal]

Maybe Marge is part Fraggle?

[@RedMageUltra]

I’m not proud of myself. I saw this video in my recommendations and thought it was someone doing the Honeycomb challenge from Squid Game. My mind has been poisoned

[@Nunubotz2]

maybe it has something to do with the fact that the original idea behind marge hair is that she is a half bunny human, yeah the idea was scrapped but you can see it in the first simpson videogame RESPONDER

[@NotOrdinaryInGames]

LOL @ spirit animal part.

[@TheMonyarm]

Have you seen Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein ?

[@feverdream]

do your videos get uploaded somewhere else first, i mean part 2 just came out in december? i love familiarfaces but the youtube upload schedule is strange.

[@ztslovebird]

There was a movie based on The Monster's Ring? Were there movies based on the other books in the series, or was this based on a different book?

[@hunnykun101]

13:23 O_O I reallly want to look that one up

[@Banchoking]

Haha! This was hilarious!

[@MWolfL]

I've watched nearly all of your holiday special reviews many times (I just need to check out your newest Halloween one) and it now occurred to me: you've never done one for Easter. Think you ever will?

[@rurik36]

Holy shit, was there a Red Green Show movie?

[@dragonpjb]

Marge is clearly a Fraggle.

[@seanpatrickcain2]

10:01 If you don't follow the rules, bad things happen!

[@kirbysuperstar5494]

17:06: well, the warm parts true at least...

[@RiderKick_93]

Isn't the monster ring based on a book by Bruce Coville?

[@KevinStriker]

3:19 Aaaaaand, liked.

[@Seanzy121]

At 17:25 doesn't look like an adult Karen from Frosty the snowman?

[@renababe1]

when is part 2 coming?

[@Shikojen]

I actually kind of like the Bride's face.

[@McNabbot]

I could go for a pickled radish

[@Demolitiondude]

YES! YES! YES!

[@TheTitandragon100]

I love how you egg on doug walker when ever you mention racken bass in these lastest top 10 holiday list's, to basically say,"Doug you have no childhood".

[@seanpatrickcain2]

9:05-9:14 ouch

[@robbiewalker2831]

10:44 - 11:40: LOL!

[@seanpatrickcain2]

3:35-3:43 OMG

[@jaketucker2559]

16:46 eh, I’d still tap that, I’ve seen worse

[@T-Jex]

3:55 Wait wtf? please tell me is not porn, PLEASE!!

[@extraspooky819]

Google "Bloo Me." Enjoy!

[@Montork]

fucking boss

[@chrisbarone515]

That girl is hot! 16:26 16:46

[@butchdeadlift10]

Is there one good dvd collection of the Simpsons halloween specials? I saw ones that were basically repackaged VHS transfers with at most 3 episodes. If there is one with at least 7 I would like to know. And NO, downloading will not help me and my crappy computer.

[@aceotaku]

i have been thinking they should do something like that, a dvd collection of only the halloween/treehouse of horror specials, cause they're the ebst simpsons episodes. always.
