    It's the end of the trail for Lou Costello in his only solo film. It's a satire of the many "giants go on a rampage" movies from the 1950s, and Dorothy Provine is our lovely giantess. There are many familiar faces in this movie including Gale Gordon, Doodles Weaver, Bobby Barber, Joey Faye, Charles Lane, and more. It's a so-so farewell to Lou's film legacy, but it's nothing to be embarrassed about. There is LOTS of interesting information and a lot of laughs. And remember to press "Like" and please "Subscribe". Thanks!

    Here's all the lowdown on Bud and Lou's final film as a team. This ends their wildly successful 20 year partnership, which included 16 years of moneymaking films. Here the boys are fighting actual deadly gangsters (with guns!), as well as the even more dangerous Mary Wickes from the Child Welfare Board! Rusty Hamer is in it (from Make Room For Daddy), and so is Inspector Henderson from The Adventures of Superman (Robert Shayne). Jerry and I both like this film a lot. Maybe you will, too. We hope so.

    It's Mummy dearest here in Bud and Lou-Land as they meet Klaris, a giant lizard, and Richard Deacon. It's their final film for Universal and it's darned good. In fact, we think it's one of their better films. Marie Windsor is at her sultry best, and the cross-talk routines are back. This film also features one of their best routines (The Deadly Necklace). Join us for more fun than anyone has a right to have.

    Grab your truncheon and your droopy mustache and join us for a close-up look at Bud and Lou's penultimate Universal film. The boys didn't come from this world of film slapstick, but they take to it like champs. Fred Clark lends terrific support, and even the old man (Mack Sennett) shows up to remind us from whence this all came. Join the fun...and subscribe to the channel.

    Join Jerry and Nick as they discuss this interesting chapter in the boys' monster series for Universal. This one is problematic in that there are no classic verbal routines, and there is an awful lot of stuntmen falling down a lot. Learn all about the folks in and around the film, and thrill to Boris Karloff as he only plays Dr. Jekyll for $15,000.00.

    It's up and away as our heroes traverse outer space, New Orleans, and Anita Ekberg! It's a fun one, folks...better than you remembered. See a rocket go through the Lincoln tunnel without paying toll! See the Statue of Liberty duck! See Venus instead of Mars! But mostly, SEE how much fun we have in this episode.

    AHOY MATIES, hoist the anchor, set the sails, and drink some port because it's time to look at this salty tale of the bounding main. Bud and Lou team up with the great Charles Laughton for ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD. See Hillary Brooke looking gorgeous, Laughton out-mugging Bud and Lou, and some really terrific color photography. Come aboard and join us for the fun.

    Not one of their best (by a long shot), but it's our boys and they're worth the look. At least there is Tom Ewell and Mitzi Green in fine support, and there are a couple of routines the boys had never used before, and Lou gets to do a song with Mitzi. Fish fly, Bud is really abusive, and the fake snow is everywhere! Have fun!
