Petey Wheatstraw (1977)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

As long as there have been cult movies, there have been delusional filmmakers who’ve thought “Hey, I can do that on purpose!”. It never works. Something incompetently made in all earnestness like Troll 2, The Room, or Shark Attack 3: Megalodon is miles away from a film that deliberately tries to look shoddy. Petey Wheastraw, the Devil’s Son-in-Law lives somewhere between the likes of “The VelociPastor” and The Human Tornado. It’s got some genuinely funny moments and some unintentional hilarity. The rest is a lot of untalented people sleepwalking through a film production.

After learning “Kung Fu” from his mentor, Petey Wheastraw (played as a baby by Clifford Roquemore II, as a young boy by Danny Poinson and Rudy Ray Moore as an adult) swore he’d never bow to anyone - living or dead. Now a successful comedian, he's asked by his rivals Leroy and Skiller (Leroy Daniels and Ernest Mayhand) to postpone his show so they can make the money required to pay back their debts. He refuses. Scared the mobsters they owe money to will ice them, they decide to assassinate Petey. In Hell, he's offered a deal by Lucifer (G. Tito Shaw): he can return to Earth to enact his revenge if he agrees to marry the devil’s daughter once he’s done.

Rudy Ray Moore playing a successful comedian who “knows” martial arts", gets with the ladies and speaks almost entirely in rhymes? Are we sure this isn’t another Dolemite movie? It might as well be. The only thing that separates this picture from those is the supernatural element but that wouldn’t have been much of a stretch for The Human Tornado. While Rudy Ray Moore’s filmography isn’t exactly known for its brilliant performances, well-written scripts, convincing stuntwork, production values, or any sort of quality, this represents a new low, primarily because it doesn’t feel like anyone is even trying.

The martial arts fight scenes are pathetic. Wheatstraw’s opponents patiently wait on the sidelines until it’s their turn to pretend like the punches and half-hearted kicks collide so they can fall over and go to sleep. To be fair, it's what you'd expect from Moore's filmography. More disappointing is the relative absence of comedy. In the past, his films have always found a way to crowbar a proxy of his act into the running time. Not today. There’s an all-too-short monologue at the beginning, and that’s it. This means the film’s best joke isn’t delivered by our hero; it’s by the murderous comedic duo who can’t afford to see him succeed.

Actually, Wheatstraw’s status as a hero is debatable. I know the Devil’s the Prince of Darkness and all, but in this movie, at least he’s honest. He offers Petey a simple deal: marry my daughter in exchange for revenge. It isn’t like Petey’s being tricked into the union, it’s what he signed up for. Of course, since she's ugly, Petey wants to worm his way out of the agreement asap. His idea is so dumb it’ll convince everyone watching that this is a bad film.

Faced with the prospect of matrimony with a monster, Petey decides to trick the ultimate trickster. His plan? Grab some random wino on the street, knock him out and pass him off as himself “in a profound state of meditation” with the help of some clothes and a convincing mask (so in movie terms, having Moore play him). By the time the drunkard wakes up, Petey and his friends will be long gone.

Where do we begin? Firstly, damning some poor soul to the wife you agreed to marry doesn’t make you likable. Second, how stupid does he think the Devil is? Third, where is he planning on going? Lucifer is a supernatural being. He’ll find you without much difficulty. Fourthly, how convenient that one of Petey’s close friends happens to be an expert makeup artist. If he didn’t have this skill, we might’ve had to use the magic pimp cane he’s been using to enact his revenge by transforming men into dogs, making objects levitate, manipulating people like a puppet master and more. It’s such bad writing it might be funny elsewhere. Here, it’s the final straw.

Petey Wheatstraw makes the mistake of thinking it knows what made Moore's previous two cinematic entries “successful”. Its attempts to be funny rarely work, which makes it a chore to watch. You’ll be doubly disappointed if you see this after Dolemite and The Human Tornado, which felt genuine in their efforts. If this was the first of Moore’s filmography you saw, you wouldn’t even make it to the end before shutting it off. (June 18, 2021)

Toca fitas na Casa Lúpulo - 30/09/2023

No sábado passado, fiz a minha segunda playlist ao vivo na Casa Lúpulo, para os Ibejis dançarem. O tema era uma festa em homenagem ao dia dos santos Cosme e Damião, representados na tradição Iorubá pelos Ibejis, orixás gêmeos, filhos de Iansã e Xangô que driblaram a morte com música. A história deles tá contada com mais detalhes no post do Instagram da Casa Lúpulo que eu deixo aqui: View this…

"don't let him lie to you. he definitely thinks about you late at night." eric chuckles, finally stealing car away from stiles to give her a cuddle. even with all the fuss, the little girl is already falling asleep. "shorter for sure. the grizzly look is cool at all but i think you being more clean cut would give a better statement." naya hums as she makes her way over to the pain, sitting down. "oh yeah, shorter would be a lot better. all this can get in the way." she teased, scratching at the beard.

"we all were hooking up. we weren't realyl dating. though eric got posessive there for a little bit but quickly got over it. when we wanted to let off a little steam, we found each other. sometimes it was just two of us, sometimes all three. just how the mood went." daniel shrugged, he had no shame.

"what can i say? man is hot and filled with built up frustration. he's good in bed. we dated very briefly and realized that was not the course for us. no hard feelings or really any. kai isn't good at those." niether was kayla all the time but she had her moments.

"we do." leroy chimes in as he makes his way towards the group, a little out of breath and alongside kai. "it just sometimes, for lack of. abetter word, easier within the pack. maybe not dating but the sex part. we of course respect everyones preferences and boundries though. bedrooms are soundproof, the rest? not so much so be careful where you handle business, my friend."

"naya does, she just thinks she's being sneaky about it. she doesn't talk much about it but that's cause i think it's still new. she's with derek. or at least they are seeing teach other."

Stiles just laughs. " I guess so I'm hoping that gives me some aura when people think about trying me. It is a lot to get used to though sometimes I walk past the mirror like ayo?! " He looks at Matt with a open mouth like ' DO YOU REALLY? " before snickering. " Yeah dude watch it we got a baby over hea! C'mon! "

Stiles goes back to Eric. " I was thinking maybe keep it shorter watchu think? "

Alaric's eyes widen. " Oh really? I didn't get that vibe from him at all he's giving me total uh... ken doll energy. romance movie character. So wait you guys were ALL together at one point or like different times? "

" You and Kai huh? " He looks at him trying to see it and he does pretty quickly. They're both super confident gorgeous people so...

" Wow... do you guys date outside of the pack usually? I've seen Naya and she's beautiful I... I figured she'd have someone special by now. Someone she loves like Matt and Lexi and You and your boyfriend. "

His mind immediately goes to Derek who keeps to himself but who he knows gets lonely a lot of the time. Or did back then he doesn't know the current Derek not like back then.

Some of these ships have large fanbases on Tumblr, but are more lacking on other platforms. Some of these ships will genuinely make you question who in the world is interested in that. And all of these ships are up for your vote, starting tomorrow!

Official Bracket:

On the left we have:

Nilanjanet (Nilanjana Sikdar/Janet Lubelle) vs Kasvin (Kasper Rhodes/Kevin)

Cecearl (Cecil Gerswhin Palmer/Earl Harland) vs Charlos (Carlos Robles/Charles)

Josh/Monty vs Danielauren (Daniel/Lauren Mallard)

Kascil (Kasper Rhodes/Cecil Gerswhin Palmer) vs Blake/Larry Leroy

On the right we have:

Mallardinal (Lauren Mallard/Dana Cardinal) vs Pawn Sherrif (Jackie Fierro/Sherrif Sam)

Toxic Science (Blake Jones/Janet Lubelle) vs Pizzacat (Silas the Thief/Big Rico Goldblum)

Radio Scientology (Cecil Palmer/Kevin/Carlos Robles/Charles) vs Women's Wrong's (The Faceless Old Woman/The Woman From Italy)

Laurbelle (Lauren Mallard/Janet Lubelle) vs Kasplake (Kasper Rhodes/Blake Jones)
