The Beaster Bunny, or as it's called here "Beaster Day: Here Comes Peter Cottonhell" not sure who Peter Cottonhell is in the film, but I digress. The film is not great.

The plot is a bit rubbish, but I found that it fell together a little bit better than other ultra low budget films, it had conflicts between the two main characters, one arguing with her Father about getting a job, the other, Doug, believing he should have won employee of the year again.

The special effects were poor, but had a sort of low budget charm to them. The music was bad, and the acting wasn't great either, although you could tell there was an element of tongue in cheek. The ending felt a bit rushed too.

3/10: Mildly enjoyable low budget horror, with a somewhat unique villain and lots of kills.

Where to start? What a crazy western. Lee Van Cleef returns as Sabata, a stylishly dressed, quick shot. But this time, the comedy is overwhelming making the film lack any consistency.

The villains and side characters are all forgettable, the main villain, a greedy mayor, is formulaic, and quite stupid. He had plenty of chances to kill Sabata, but doesn't. Additionally, the minor villains are extremely forgettable and have no character.

Sabata's friend who owes him $5000 is slightly interesting and has a few genuinely funny moments, but a lot of the comedy falls flat. The two acrobats who use sling shots instead of guns are absurd and I cringed like a piece of paper every time they were on screen.

There are a couple of positives, the music is quite good, a minority of the action scenes are decent, but never great. Lee Van Cleef's outfits are a treat to see and really do make him stand out, but I can't think of anything else.

3/10: Overlong, full of plot holes and lacks interesting characters, locations, or a good storyline.

Fabulous animals was essentially a lost mini series, of sorts, with only the BBC having copies of it. Luckily, recently it was found in its entirety, and upscaled into high definition!

The show itself is very interesting, especially with the great David Attenborough at the helm! He discusses sea monsters, mermaids, fantastical Medieval descriptions of real animals, and, of course, Bigfoot. It would be interesting to fans of these sorts of monsters and cryptozoology as a whole, although I wish he'd included more photos of the beasts, and I think that there are some other monsters and myths he could have talked about!

7/10: Informative and fun documentary series, with a great narrator. It's a shame it didn't continue past its six episode run.
