Terror in Tiny Town!! (all midget cast)
That's right, I came accross this 1938 movie, which is a Western with an all midget cast. This is seriously the best thing I've seen in a looooong time. Not only are there cowboy-midgets riding around on ponies, but, well, Isn't that enough?!?!
The best part of the movie is when there are a bunch of mini-cowboys hanging out in a barber shot. The camera focuses in on one midget, then another, then on a penguin....seriously, a live fucking penguin in the middle of an old west barber shop...WTF!!!!! This wasn't a painting of a penguin, nor was it a statue or anything like that, but it's a live penguin. Seriously gonna have nightmares tonight. Last edited by Flip; Aug 20, 06 at 02:37 AM.

Not only is the acting absolutely awful and there are no special effects (it's 1938, what do you expect) but it almost looks like they are making up the script as they go along.
Another really confusing thing is that in the opening credits it lists the characters and their roles; Blacksmith, farmer, etc... Anywho, one of the characters was "Vampire", which is what I expected in a movie called "Terror in Tiny Town". But there wasn't a vampire anywhere in site. It's about some guy who steals cattle from 2 different farmers and tries to get the 2 farmers to blame each other. I have no idea where vampires come into play....but there's still midgets everywhere, so I guess it doesn't really matter. And a fucking penguin!!! I have to find out what the hell the penguin has to do with anything, I'm going to lose sleep over this. Is it common for penguins to hang out in barber shops? Especially since this took place in an old west desert kinda place. There are no penguins in the desert!!! |

I have no idea what it's name was, it wasn't really a character in the movie. The camera points at one midget, then another, then at the penguin for a few seconds and then onto something else. No one mentions the penguin, no one in the movie makes any comment about it. It's like he wasn't even there... but he was. I don't know if the director of the movie just decided that it would be funny if they added a penguin at random, just to mess with people's heads while watching the movie. You gotta figure that anyone sick enough to watch an all midget westerne, is the kind of sick bastard who would appreciate a random penguin shot. No idea.
