Ep 131: The Cremators

We continue #ROBOtober with 1972's THE CREMATORS, a movie that
doesn't include a single robot but that's okay because #ROBOtober
is all about the weird movies made by New World Pictures. 
You wouldn't be to blame for punching holes in the second part of
that last sentence but we will move on.

Considered one of the cheapest movies released by New World
Pictures, THE CREMATORS is a science-fiction, horror movie about
a minivan-sized Cheeto ball that terrorizes a small lakeside
town.  The Cheeto ball feeds on human flesh but otherwise
leaves everything else alone.  It also get's its powers from
little rocks.  If you hold the rocks with your hands, they
will leave an unremovable glitter stain not unlike Ace Frehley's
outfit from the cover of KISS Alive 2. 

THE CREMATORS is more than the sum of it's parts.  Hospital
emergency rooms look like the living room of a house, 
laboratories look like the wood paneled basement of your Uncle
Flint's house, and the audio....  the audio is almost
impossible understand which is unfortunate since a lot of the
dialogue takes place over ham radio.  Speaking of which,
looks like we at The New World Pictures Podcast will be gifting
each other ham radios for the holidays.  Thank you,
CREMATORS
