Mel Brooks' (Blazing Saddles, Spaceballs, The Producers) parody of
Western history.

Fantastic Planet (La planète sauvage)
8:30pm in CSI 1115 on Thursday, October 20 (tomorrow)
72 min, Color, 1973

Winner of the 1973 Grand Jury Prize at Cannes, this French sci-fi
cartoon is something of an allegory for the Soviet invasion of
Czechoslovakia, but it is mostly famous for being the most trippy
animated movie available.

Next Week: Halloween! I'm currently thinking 'Nightmare before
Christmas' and 'The Exorcist'.
