The "ALIENS ON ICE" gang is tackling JURASSIC PARK!
Hello ladies and gentlemen, Muldoon here with an odd little bit of awesome that crossed my desk this morning and seeing as how it's JURASSIC PARK related - I can't help but put it out there. So based on the title above, you're one of two people A) someone who's heard about "ALIENS ON ICE" or B) someone who has no clue what I'm talking about. Bam! Class is now in session.
While some men set out to rape your childhood (I'm looking at you Michael "Teenage Alien Ninja Turtles" Bay), it's refreshing to see what the gang at Old Murder House Theatre is up to - celebrating film after film with bizarre as hell comedy farces, essentially goofy love letters to the original films. The comedy theater troup, lead by Sam Eidson, has just announced it's next project: "JURASSIC FARCE" complete with a US tour.
Austin, TX … June 10th
Houston, TX … June 12th
New Orleans, LA … June 14th
Atlanta, GA … June 16th
Washington D.C. … June 18th
New York, NY … June 20th
Boston, MA … June 21st
Chicago, IL … June 23rd
San Francisco, CA … June 26th
Los Angeles, CA … June 28th
Dallas, TX … July 1st
Austing, TX (Encore) … July 3rd
So a totally fan made stage play spoofing one of the greatest films of all time from the dudes who did ALIENS ON ICE and a ROBOCOP: LIVE!? Yeah, I'm down. How about you guys? Check out the gang's kickstarter page for more info.
Here's a taste of the ALIENS ON ICE craziness:

Looks like a bunch of dudes got drunk and filmed it on a frozen pond in their back yard... and the result is pure brilliance. I'm in category B, having never heard of this before. Thank you for showing me the light... Will look into the NYC showing.

Thats for posting something completely retarded that no one will care about.

These look like the home videos that my friends and I made in high school... in 1989.

What a lot of bitter, bitter, angry little people post on this site. I always knew that, but man...13 posts, and 5 are negative. It's a small stage parody of Jurrasic Park. From the comedy troupe that brought you a show called Aliens on Ice. It's in the title. It's a fucking joke. Just laugh or leave. Christ.

Yeah, it's pretty amateur but that's the whole point.
by KEVIN_COSTNERS_RECYCLED_PISS
I just watched the highlights of their Back to the Future play on YouTube and it was pretty funny. You need to be a big fan of the source material and know every line to really "get" it but it's a laugh anyway.

this is the reason an Alien film(with the xenomorph ) will never be made again. It has been played out to the point where it's comical and not horrifying.

All high school drama classes across the country should be cancelled
by Raptor Jesus
If these people had not attended a high school drama class they might now be living meaningful, productive lives.

based on the insane satirical version that Paul Verhoeven made.

...you all are.

Aliens on Ice looked fantastically fun. I would love to see that show.
-
I'm amazed at how supportive you guys are of our little plays. It really means the world to me and I know I can count on you guys to be at the show. My deepest appreciation goes out to all of you.
