Entry #96 - Film #16: KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park (1978)

Day #16 of Eli Osman.com's 31 Days of Halloween. All day today I have had a song stuck in my head. That song is "Shout it Out Loud" by KISS. So for Today's film I have proudly chosen the Hanna Barbara produced TV movie...

KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park (1978)
 Directed by Gordon Hessler
Not Rated
96 Mins. 
Watched a Bootleg Copy


Summary
The tale of rock band KISS and their efforts to thwart a diabolical plan by mad scientist Abner Devereaux. Devereaux has found a way to clone humans into robots in his laboratory at an amusement park. It just so happens that he plans to uses the KISS concert as a platform to unleash his plan on the world. KISS must use their special powers to stop him

Just out at Peter Criss on that cover. Just look at him. He is my favorite member of KISS, mostly because he is the worst member of KISS. Not that is is a bad musician, but he has the worst persona. He is a cat for crying out loud and not a tiger or something, but more of an Andrew Lloyd Weber cat. The weird thing about this movie is that people like it mainly because it exist. A Hanna Barbara TV movie aimed for kids with a Scooby Do like plot featuring the crazy rock band KISS. That craziness is what drew me to this movie, surprisingly this movie isn't that good. But no matter what I say about this movie, you will still watch it. Its a movie for kids starring KISS, it will be watched.

Grade: Peter Criss
