A clip from Peter Jackson's 1989 film, Meet The Feebles.
The film was suppressed by The Jim Henson organization because well, frankly, it gave Muppets a very bad name...drugs, perversity, sex and bad taste and quite a few really great musical numbers.
Maybe someday it will be re released...because it was absolutely brilliant. This is the Nam Flashback sequence.
I hate to tell you, but I have a copy of this on DVD. Amazon France has it for €11.85 avec livraison gratuite dès 15 euros d'achats!
ReplyDeleteFormidable!
One of my oldest friends has worked with the Henson organization for many years. She still does and actually got me a screen credit for make/up costume design on The Muppets Treasure Island. When I first saw Meet The Feebles, she told me that it was a secret favorite of much of the staff including Henson, but it was their legal department which created all the hassles for the film.
ReplyDeleteThe copy I saw was supposedly a bootleg back in the early 90's. After I posted this, I found that it was indeed available now and that I could actually stream it on my computer...
Brilliant, sick...I can't wait to hear the grand finale Sodomy Musical number again!
