I forgot to tell all you critters that while I was rummaging through HULU's boss freebie pile I spotted an old pal, BASKET CASE 2! I love this wonderfully bizarre, surprisingly thoughtful, highly hilarious sequel so much that my brain now tends to think of the original BASKET CASE as a prequel. Who can blame me when SUPERMAN 3's reluctant robot lady ANNIE ROSS rules so hard in BC2? She really should be forced to star in everything forever for the benefit of mankind. If you have a mind to, you can read my full crusty & dusty review HERE, catch the snappy trailer below and then happily skip on over to the HULU joint to watch this fine feathered freak-fest for the sensational price of zero plus zero clams! Make sure you tell them Unk sent you so that you may marvel at the profound indifference that statement yields!
TOTALLY TRUE TID-BIT: Here's ANNIE as a kid in an OUR GANG short!
Annie Ross rules in so many ways. This coming from someone a little obsessed with Lambert, Hendricks and Ross (I once did one of their numbers in a drag show) and in awe of her seemingly endless entertaining talents (writing a song sung by Johnny Mercer when she was only 14!?!).
Now to watch Basket Case 2!
