A/V Geeks

Posts tagged ‘16 mm film’

Now, what could be worse than to have a little boy become a sissy? The A/V Geeks present an evening of classic campy 16mm school films that examine the behavior of potential wimps and what has to be done to fix it.

Films include:

SOAPY THE GERM FIGHTER (1951) Billy Martin is concerned that being clean is tantamount to being a sissy. Perhaps a giant cake of soap in pantaloons can convince him otherwise.

WILLIAM’S DOLL (1985) – William is an athletic kid but his fascination with baby dolls has his father concerned and his friends picking on him. Can Grandpa fix things with William’s birthday gift?

NEUROTIC BEHAVIOR – A PSYCHODYNAMIC VIEW (1973) – College-aged Peter has problems talking to girls. Could stern toilet training be making him a sissy?

Down and Out (1971)

While attempting to show us the common hazards which cause workers to lose their balance, this film has more slapstick than most Three Stooges shorts – the film’s hero fall down more than thirty times. It’’s not clear whether the film was meant to be funny as workers probably were laughing at this poor schnook more than learning from his mistakes.

This film is available on the Oops! DVD
