Past Movie List

     This is a rough list of movies that we have done since 1992. There may have been more but I really can't remember that well. Some crossed the thin line between being a movie and 'just something we did'. There were countless commercials and skits which I tried to lump together in the time frame they were done.

1992-1995: Danny on the Moon: This was a series that I did in my room. We had fake commercials, skits, and stuff. The bulk of the episodes ran from 1992-1993, but a few more surfaced in later years.
Cast:
Dann Thombs (lead)
Chris Thombs (co-star)

John Heins (semi-regular)

1992-1993: Honey, I'm Home: These were small skits in semi-association with Danny on the Moon. They involved a wife coming home and the husband either killing her or himself as the occasion presented itself. It was weird, don't ask.

1993: Monster in the Woods: A boy (Chris Thombs) runs away from home because his parents are making him move to Russia. But a monster (Alan C.) is in the woods and shoots him, but then a park ranger (Dann Thombs) come and shoots the monster. Then the monster traks them down and chases the boy, but the boy finds a copperhead snake, and throws it on the monster and it dies.

1993: The Stupid Karate Kid: Break through at the time, with state of the art computerized MOD music. A young boy (Chris Thombs) must be trained by the ancient chinese master (Dann Thombs).

1996-1997 The Stupid Karate Kid 3: Yes the excitement continues in the third installment of the trilogy. The stupid karate kid finds himself in an insane asylum. But the ancient chinese master gives him a note to escape. He does and meets the master outside, because the master works there. The stupid karate kid is immediately put to fight the evil guy. He wins and then is hired to steal some documents. This was 'for the money'. Then he is attacked by the spice boys, and then the silver-alien-looking-evil-guy. He is forced to play with dolls as part of the 100 levels of torcher. But he is rescued. Then there are rumours of an evil news caster and the stupid karate kid is befriended by a rat who later is shot by the evil news caster. But is okay later and everything is fine. Then there was some unrelated lamb-cha sock puppet thing which I'm not sure if we really wanted it to be in the movie or if we were just really bored.

Bob Cratchet is working for next to nothing, and doesn't get any coal for the fire. He has to prick his finger for blood so he can write, and he is not allowed to go to the GAP. At home, his daughter is going to die, so she must finish her dusting quickly. Then at night auntie Helga comes home and is greeted by carolers singing Du Hast, and she headbangs to it. Then she goes to sleep, only to wake up later by Marley because he is playing Grand Theft Auto. Marley leaves and comes back and warns her about three ghosts who will visit during the night. The first ghost comes and is only a head. He shows her the past. Then the ghost of the present comes and is huge. He shows her Bob Cratchet holding his daughter's skull on a stick pretending she is alive. Then the Scream guy comes and tries to kill her, but she thinks he is the ghost of the future, so she leaves to see what the future will hold. The real ghost of the future comes and is confused why she isn't there. He meets up with the Scream guy and gets stabbed. Auntie Helga never leanrs her lesson and feed scraps from the largest turkey to Bob Cratchet who has to beg for them under the table.
