John Landis on “The Bed Sitting Room”
Jan 6, 2012
Trailer 680 of 700
"I think man has no option but to continue his own stupidity" said co-author Spike Milligan of his post-apocalyptic 1962 play, filmed by Richard Lester in 1969. Underappreciated in its day, one critic pronounced it to be "like Samuel Beckett, but with better jokes". The distinguished cast of this existential Goon Show is billed "in order of height".

I swear to she-god, one of your all time greatest! This trailer is ALMOST as awesome as the iconic poster! Love that pan of chanting 'island beauties' and Mr. Corman's commentary is as relaxing as a Hawaiian vacation...

I was in LA at the time doing promotional work for the Fox release of my MFHK. I remember going to WLF on Hollywood Boulevard and having a pulse pounding ride that purged the stresses of the day...

I remember this from years ago and it's really good. And the commentary is full of the stuff I need to know! I wondered why we did not see much more of JMV, now I know.

As a Dick Miller completest, I clearly have to see this picture. I can't believe it's passed me by so far.

Love this one, and love all the cheezy plot within a plot within a plot ripoffs that followed (remember all those gorgeous black and white Hammer second features?).

It out-convoys CONVOY! I wonder if this inspired Peckinpah to make his ill-fated trucker movie.
