Other than Gorshin's Riddler, my favorite of the Batman TV villains, Egghead.
For his eggcess of eggzasperating eggsclamations they eggcised every
eggsemplary eggspression in the dictionary. Eggcetera, eggcetera.
Some marionettes I never saw before.
Glad I didn't.
From the late Ray Steckler's "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo", part orange, part blue.
A fun novelty film if you don't mind the first half being thieves and a stalker
tagging after Carolyn Brandt's can for what must be twenty minutes; (I don't).
Or the other half a pseudo go go romp with Rat Pfink standing in a sidecar
stalwartly peering ahead through most of their chase scenes.
Anyhow, there's nothing much else like it.

ReplyDeleteUsed to go to school with a fella had the same noggin as Price's "Egghead". Copped a lot of shit, the poor fella... Still haven't seen Steckler's "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo", though recall you mentioning in somewhere along the line. Looks like fun. By the way, how do you pronounce the "Pfink" bit? Dig these daily posts, keep at 'em! Was thinking of doing the same but realized is kind of pointless my end. Still, every man and his dog is out there doing the same, so why not? Then again, why??

He probably is since on his way to Master Villainy. Was only a year or two ago TCM actually showed Puh-fink. (Best to have a 'silent pee'). After my knowing about it for about 15 years. They said there's a fairly cheap Steckler collection, a four or more films in one DVD box, think I'll scare up... Thanks for the encouragement. More on all this in our regular email.
