Subscribe FreeOn side three of this set, the complete featurette Mant is presented in the CAV format complete with theatrical trailer. This is the spoof movie “within” the movie billed as “Half man, half ant, all terror!” It is black and white and the CAV format allows you to revel in the 1950s-style special effects.
Matinee is delightful entertainment for the whole family. John Goodman plays Lawrence Woolsey, the gregarious creator of sci-fi thriller movies and the best self-promoter of 1962. He brings his premiere demonstration of “AtomoVision” with spine-tingling “RumbleRama” to Key West Florida where he meets a group of great kids and this charming story unfolds. The DVD does not feature the Mant short film that was included with the LaserDisc.
