“Now you’re thinking ‘I hope that’s Shepherd’s Pie in my knickers.” They took so much delight in the Britishisms. “Doctor, we know you and the bootblack have been rodgering the fishwife in the crumpet shop.” Hilarious
"And Doctor; we know that you and the Bootblack have been rogering the Fishwife in the crumpet shop." Put that up with jokes that went over my head as a kid
“A registered nurse trained in the treatment of terror will be on duty during showing...” Reminds me of The Screaming Skull where they promised to buy a casket for people who died of fright while watching.
All of William Castle's films had a gimmick The Tingler: Military surplus airplane wing de-icers (which are just vibrating motors) were attached them to the underside of some of the seats giving a little shock House on Haunted Hill: Skeletons attached on wires floated over the audience during the climax of the film Macabre: Theatre-goers were offered £1000 life insurance in case they died of fright during the show
“The Bloodening” “The ReDeadening” “The Monster that Ate Everyone” Man, The Simpson’s world has the most interesting and intriguing horror movies. Oh AND SPACE MUTANTS, too.
I love this so much. I love how much clear love the Simpsons writers have for the original 60s Brit horror Village of the Damned. I love the reference to the William B. Castle cinema gimmicks with the 'registered nurse'. I love the ridiculous hype for an endearingly dated crusty British movie and I love-love-love the inexplicable fact that for some reason all the jaded kids in Springfield think it's fantastic and terrifying. So many gags packed in! Sigh, those were the days.
@AJTwo He has great taste. Other great Wyndham works of scifi horror are of course 'The Day of the Triffids' and 'The Kraken Wakes'. Triffids was made into a pretty great 1980s Brit TV series too.
@@MrParkerman6 Actually you are quite wrong sir. Rodgering is an acceptable way of spelling that word. I hope you have thusly been educated.... DUMBASS
@@ThePsychoBone I'm not the type of person to call people dumbasses when it's not warranted. But I do agree that putting a D in there makes no sense. Rodger isn't a word.
Lol my husband was asking me if I've seen this movie before. As he was describing it to me, I was thinking to myself. I know I've never seen that movie but I felt like I've seen something similar. Then I remembered, it was The Simpsons lol. I swear everything refers back to Simpsons.
I find it hilarious that he used the term "weans", which anyone outside of Scotland and Northern Ireland probably has never heard of. It slang for "kids" and just a shorter word for "wee ones".
I used to think the adults killing themselves at the end was the kids controlling them but now I am starting to think they did it out of sheer terror. If that is true, then those strange kids never actually hurt anyone. The adults hurt themselves by allowing their fear to get the better of them. Of course that could have been the kid's plan all along.
If you've seen the movie and read the book Village of the Damned / The Midwich Cuckoos, then yes, they're forcing the adults to kill themselves. Cracking movie and novel, though regrettably they do not cover the illicit erotic happenings in the crumpet shop.
@@PeterEvansPeteTakesPictures This is a movie in the Simpsons Universe. I wouldn't put it past a bunch of small-town farm folk to kill themselves out of sheer terror of the inexplicable.
I'm surprised Lisa, of all people, snuck out to see the movie. You'd think she'd refuse to see a movie she's too young for, with her being a rule-driven person.
Lisa is the best example of a hypocrite The rules are super important and should be followed at all times, unless they get in the way of me doing something I want
Lisa often breaks rules, she's just more aware of the consequences of them than Bart. She enjoys violence and horror films as much as Bart, itchy and scratchy etc
No it isn’t, it’s been shown on TV here in the U.K. lots and we find it funny and it’s also a very cleverly done parody. The Simpsons up until the PC brigade ruined it was a great, now it’s garbage.
I notice there are a lot of parody movies in tv shows where the title of an old horror movie is 'The (blank)-ening'.. can someone please tell me the origin of this trend? what was the first movie or book to use the 'ening' formula?
Nelson Muntz calls the stomach a “ crap factory” he corrected Bart in one episode, even gut wasn’t excepted. The Simpsons up until and including the Movie was great after that 💩 PC ruined it like it ruins everything.
