A/V Geeks

An educational film featuring a chorus of voices introducing 11 percussion instruments including a groovy rock band. Very catchy/annoying film.

This film is available on the A/V Geeks Greatest Hits DVD-R

No Responses to “Crash Bang Boom (1970)”

  1. Christine Hennig

    Imagine, if you will, that ERPI made a film about percussion instruments. Only imagine it was made in color and in 1970. And it was a musical, with the dry ERPI narration sung instead of spoken. That gives you some idea about what this film is like. Actually, it’s pretty well done visually, with all kinds of percussion instruments filmed and edited in a somewhat wacky style. But then they go and ruin it with a choral group singing incredibly obvious lines like, “This is a bass drum.” They’re not even songs, really, just lame tone poems. Still, this film gets a somewhat higher rating than you might think based on sheer weirdness alone.
    Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ***. Weirdness: *****. Historical Interest: *****. Overall Rating: ****.
