Sleestaks!

When I was a kid, the only "monster" I remember being really afraid of was the Sleestak. The nastiest of the bad guys in The Land of the Lost. Worse than Grumpy the T-Rex. I think it was the hissing. And the eyes. And the cross bows.

It won't be long before we can see the Sleestaks again in a new movie remake of Sunday morning's best television show. News report here. Too bad the movie stars Will Ferrell, who will undoubtedly ruin this show like just about every other movie he's been in. Or maybe the Sleestaks will get him.

If the Croft brothers are selling off the movie rights to all their shows we'll soon be able to watch Sygmond and the Seamonsters and H. R. Pufnstuf on the big screen too. Sweet!
