  • Pack up the Butterfingers, Dumpster Dwellers, because we're headed to the Amazon this week with Mr. Lobo to MEET THE APPLEGATES! The spread of deforestation in the South American rainforest has been destroying the homes of local wildlife. Unbeknownst to the outside world, a race of giant insects with shapeshifting abilities plot to infiltrate Small Town USA and execute a nuclear holocaust in retaliation. Directed by Michael Lehmann of "Heathers" fame, comes another satirical cult classic lost in the shuffle of the early 90s due to poor marketing and the collapse of New World Pictures. Join Dick, Jane, Sally, and Johnny as they try to navigate the American dream and the trials and tribulations of life as humans.

    Meet the Applegates (released in the Philippines and the United States as The Applegates) is a 1990 American science fiction horror black comedy film directed by Michael Lehmann. It was filmed during 1988-89, but not released in the United States until 1991 due to the financial difficulties surrounding New World Pictures, the film's production company. It takes a dark, satirical look at the end of the world, nuclear holocausts, alienism and terrorism. It was filmed in Oshkosh, Appleton and Neenah, Wisconsin. It has gained a cult following.

    The whole 'Swordfish' thing dates back to the 1932 Marx Brothers film _Horse Feathers,_ in which it was the password required to gain entry into a speakeasy (this serving, naturally, as the basis for a series of pun-laden exchanges and sight gags). The memorably absurd password has since been referenced and/or parodied in more pieces of media than can possibly be tallied here; suffice it to say that it was indeed a well-established trope by the time it was featured in _Meet the Applegates._

    Absolute treat of an episode. I always love hearing Mr. Lobo give opinions and discuss movies. He has so much respect for any film that he can toss it into a dumpster and make it feel like it was done with absolute love and affection for it. He is the Keanu Reeves of cult and horror film commentary in that there is never an ouce of negativity in anything he says, and it comes from such a sincere place that you can only love him for it. I never even heard of this movie and now i'll be having to watch it this weekend.

    The chick who played the daughter was also in Wes Cravens Shocker from 1989. She played the girlfriend in that movie who became a ghost in the movie. She retired from acting early which is why she wasn't in more stuff beyond this and Shocker. She retired to I believe help abused children or something like that.

    I thought that I had somehow dreamt this movie when I saw this as a kid in 1995, but the more I got older it krept back in my head. This movie scared the shit out of me as a kid and it still does as I am 35 years old now. You guys are in for a tweet. I wish more people saw this movie as kids. The one scene that fucked me up was the scene where the daughter transforms while getting raped by the jock in the gym. That shit scared me as a kid and it still fucking scares me as an adult.

    I remember this movie either on wpix channel 11 or the movie Channel having always having a double feature with either Parents the cannibal family film or heartbeats the andy kaufman robot movie. I'm assuming cause they both had a dark comedy tone to them, I'm not terribly sure. Love to see a doc about meet the Applegate though, I think that could be really fun.

      Not quite. She was also in the awful _Freaky Friday_ ripoff _Like Father Like Son_ with Dudley Moore and Kirk Cameron, the middling Judd Nelson thriller _Every Breath,_ and (most significantly, perhaps, in the context of Movie Dumpster) _Lawnmower Man 2: Beyond Cyberspace_ (a.k.a. _Jobe's War_ ). Additionally, she made appearances on a number of popular TV shows (including _Knots Landing, General Hospital,_ and _21 Jump Street_ ), as well as in a handful of TV movies. Of most interest to myself, though, she starred in the highly entertaining, über-nineties Sega CD/Saturn FMV game _Double Switch,_ which was the spiritual successor to the infamous _Night Trap. Double Switch_ also starred Corey Haim, Debbie Harry, and R. Lee Ermey, amongst others, and was directed by Mary Lambert, who is probably best known as the director of the original 1989 adaptation of _Pet Sematary_ and its 1992 sequel. These days, Camille is recognised as a top national expert on issues relating to the media, and has been involved in advocacy work related to the safety and protection of children and other at-risk groups, as well as having been instrumental in successful campaigns to change policies, reform legislation, and increase funding for law enforcement in these areas.
