Title: B-movie lawn gnomes?
Post by: Flangepart on November 06, 2003, 08:27:56 PM
Well....why not?
If you could avoid theft, vandalisim and torch bearing hords, what kinda Badmovies lawn might you like to have?

Like....
Godzilla! ( A great pool accesory. Put lights in the mouth, and the water comes out looking like atomic breath!)
Darth Vader ( Porch light and bug zapper)
Ash! ( working chainsaw. turn it on when those pesky sales gerbils come knocking)
A Grabboid! ( Make sure the tentacles wiggle!)
A Velociraptor. ( Just peeking out the bushes...)
Lee Van Cleef! (The man with the gunsight eyes...they follow visetiors where ever they go...)
Welllll.....your turn!

My wife's contribution to this:

"Robot Monster" (and bubbles come out)

Katie is something of a lawn gnome fanatic.  I even had to buy her one; he now graces our living room.

I'd have to say that I'd want several dwarves, lying down, on a base that spins.

How about some of the puppets from "Puppet Master"?  Seeing a few of them hanging out on someone's lawn would creep me out

I'd like to have a bloody hand sticking up out of my lawn, like at the end of CARRIE.

Easy enough, they sell fake severed hands around halloween.

I think I'd like a graboid, but only if it's life-size. :)

Ash, Graboids,  bloody hands are nothing,  But the thought of  Lee  Van  Cleef  in the front  yard . Now that's scary.

"Seven Dwarfs to the Rescue" - at one point the dwarves are sleeping when a sinkhole is opened under them.  It looks like they are being flushed down a commode in the middle of a field.  Bizarre film.  I felt sorry for the Prince of Darkness,  the bad guy, because the dwarves eventually jump him and beat him up.

I wouldn't mind a full-sized Jack Palance head figure, plopped right in front of the daffodils.  Probably would scare away any snails for blocks.
Probable neighbors and relatives, too.

This might be a GOOD thing . . . .
