My favorite fact about that movie is that it was written by the same guy who made Re-animator/From Beyond which is why it has horror elements in it. The bee and spider scenes are terrifying!!!! And lawn mower… apparently he wanted to be a little more daring (the idea of children in deadly danger depictions on the big screen was wonky back then) but Disney said no was why he left after they messed w his script. I want to see his vision I want my 90’s camp horror film that involves being very small.

#I’m a big cinema nut I love behind the scenes and how movie magic works especially from that era #Lots of good forced perspective use of miniatures and acting on a projected screen #The projected screen technique is actually how they filmed the tiny ash clones in army of darkness #You can tell very easily too with how some quick scenes have ash in completely different light from the tiny clones #But it’s still so impressive with their budget limits and ofc Sam Raimi’s silly visions 💚#ANYWAYS in regards to Spike — they just gotta find out how to unshrink him and what the device that shrunk him is used for #But that can take a week… maybe more #And the bebop crew is full of CLOWNS #Only Jet is in any way responsible with spike’s height issue and treats it seriously!!!#And maybe Ein but Ein is a dog #I do love doodling tiny spike leaning against Ein or on top of him so cute Ein is so excited #Txt #replies #Reddragoncowboy
