Isn't He Cute??????????????????? NOT, Darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                        I thought nothing was worse than a pit bull, until I saw the 1959 film, "The Killer Shrews," which David and I watched one night last week on a non-Svengoolie weeknight.

                                        These creatures were actually coon dogs with monster masks over their faces, and puppets in others, especially when breaking through doors, walls, or fences.

                                         And let me tell you something, girls!  They livened up the show!  They deserved more screen time than they got!  Who cares about the actors?  Who cares about the plot--the usual trapped victims on a remote island, victimized by a mad scientist's experiments on growth, involving shrews, who grow to tremendous size.

                                           This 1959 work had a small influence on 1972's "Night Of The Lepus," though its last, with really cute bunny rabbits and an all-star cast is far superior.

                                              "The Killer Shrews" will have you cheering them on, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                 And there is nothing wrong with that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
