By an Amazon.com customer
Dennis the Menace (Clam) [VHS]Dennis the Menace (Clam) [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"Dennis The Menace": If you loved the 50s TV sit-com, you'll enjoy this fun-filled 90 minute Blockbuster Hollywood condensed version.
The Brady Bunch Movie [VHS]The Brady Bunch Movie [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.40
"The Brady Bunch Movie": The most fun since Marcia got her braces! Hilarious "parody" of the #1 afternoon re-run sit-com. Great cameos, too!
The Muppet Movie [VHS]The Muppet Movie [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.89
"The Muppet Movie": This is likely the most inspired silver screen production from a TV series. This Oscar-Winner inspired the producers to follow with several sequels.
The Addams Family: Weird Is Relative [VHS]The Addams Family: Weird Is Relative [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"The Addams Family": It's never foolish to be ghoolish! A fantastic Hollywood production, capturing all of the charme and creepiness of the original. Great special effects too!
Jetsons: The Movie [VHS]Jetsons: The Movie [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.50
"The Jetsons, The Movie": Meet George Jetson! Jane, his wife; his daughter, Judy, Elroy, Astro and faithful robot maid Rosie. This film has all of the original cartoon magic!
George of the Jungle [VHS]George of the Jungle [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"George of the Jungle": "...look out, George!" The clumsy version of Tarzan was great on Cartoon Hour, but at the movies the plot fizzled to silly-puddy.
Car 54 Where Are You [VHS]Car 54 Where Are You [VHS]
Buy used from: $1.95
"Car 54, Where Are You?": My all-time favorite "mistaken identity" sit-com made a shaky tranfer to the silver screen. 60s dumb was funny, 90s dumb's just plain dumb.
Beverly Hillbillies [VHS]Beverly Hillbillies [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"The Beverly Hillbillies": Star-studded big-sceen adaptation of legendary sit-com. Not quite as credibly dumb as the TV series.
Inspector Gadget [VHS]Inspector Gadget [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"Inspector Gadget": A disappointing attempt to turn the 70s Saturday Morning Cartoon into a Blockbuster Hollywood Feature. Good for the visual gags, otherwise barely so-so.
Leave It to Beaver [VHS]Leave It to Beaver [VHS]
Buy used from: $0.01
"leave it to Beaver": They should have left well enough alone. The Original Beaver beats this silver screen wanna-be anytime!
