      YAY! You suck at life and won a buket of cancer, you douche! Seriously, saying y're first is stupid and makes you look like a complete jackass. No one likes people like you. Say something that has something to do with this video. Like why you liked it, criticism, or something. Not a stupid first.

    Okay, that tears it. I'm making my own movie...right now as I type this comment. I'm going to use this old camcorder from 1982, and my only props will be whatever I can find in the junk drawer in my house. Let's see...wad of rubber bands, 13 filthy pennies, empty ink pen, and some unused straws from Arby's. ACTION!!!

    ....and that's a wrap! Now for a quick edit job....and it's done! And what do you know? It's an assload better than Geek Maggot Bingo! Where's my award?

    Seriously though, these people look like they had a good time making this. And I'd be willing to wager that Brad had fun watching it.

    Just out of curiousity, what was the running time?

    Great! After reading the title, all I can hear in my head is Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello singing "Beach Blanket Bingo" as "Geek Maggot Bingo". Although this film makes any of those "Beach" movies look like Palme d'Or winners at Cannes.

    Where does one begin to describe this so-called movie? The set from Kiss Me Quick looks more expensive.I've seen better actors in an elementary school play.They couldn't use someone's house to film this or film it outside as well? Did this go straight to video? It looks like they didn't put much thought(if any)and time in making this.It just goes to show,that anyone can make a movie and by looking at this,it looks pretty easy and anyone else could make a better one.

    I realized something, I think the title was a reference to "Beach Blanket Bingo" a 60s feel good flick. Which raises the question, why the hell are you making a homage to that in a horror movie?

    Hey, Brad. wondering if you could throw in Charles Bronson references every once in a while. Perhaps a big box episode. Being as you based your character on Roger Ebert and Ebert liked Bronson as an actor, but hated his kick ass Cannon films.

    I wonder if the title was inspired by the immortal classic:

    You know, this reminds me a lot of Manos: The Hands of Fate. Maybe because it was also shot by obviously non-actors on a $100 budget, but Brad's commentary might be what's doing it.

    So the hunchback's name is Geeko, huh? That must mean it's a sequel to Dragonball Evolution, because god knows they're about the same quality.

Not as a movie worthy costume but as a cewl halloween haunted house costume you'd see over priced at a Hot Topic and/or a Spencer's Gifts!

    Nick Zedd, the director of Geek, was part of that whole 'no wave' thing in the 80's in NY city, along with Richard Kern,Lydia Lunch, Beth & Scott B, etc.

    Some of those films are interesting (if for nothing but shock value- ever seen 'Fingered'?) but this one sure doesn't look like one of them.

    I haven't the words. How is it I have never even heard of this film? I have to admit, as awful as this film looks, the makers have a certain sense of style, even if that style is expressed using cardboard and construction paper. I was actually reminded a little of Vegas in Space, though that almost looks like a Grade A production by comparison.

    I was actually a little leery about watching this video on account of the word "Maggot" in the title. I'm not sure I wanted to go through it so soon after watching Flesh Feast. *shudder*

    These kind of titles link in with left-field Rock. Geek Maggot Bingo could be a Butthole Surfers, Fall, or Captain Beefheart track.

    I think it has something to do with Mushrooms.

    Masque did the smart thing once a reshaped himself into a woman once for some time. Not sure if he could fuck himself, but it was a pretty interesting idea.

    I saw the movie yesterday, and as expected came across as more of a parody/homage of Ed Wood type movies than anything anyone was taking seriously except for Frankenberry, who somehow kept a straight face the whole time. Among the highlights is watching the actor playing the dean act as kitty wrangler for five minutes while Frankenberry is going off about something and also the punchline to having all the phones made out of cardboard, which probably has to be seen to be appreciated.
