that VHS box cover SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME and i dreaded going into video stores out of fear of seeing it.... as an adult i watched the movie and enjoyed it!!!
JCB was such a cool guy and clearly loved talking at length with fans at conventions and such. I treasure the poster he gave me for his (still unreleased, possibly abandoned/lost) final project, Wizardream. It sits in a frame over my movie shelves.
As a young kid looking for a VHS movie to rent back when there was still a seperate Beta section. This cover always caught my eye, but of course I wasnt allowed to rent it at about 6 or 7 years old. This cover because I thought it was cool looking and the covers for Monkey Shines, Dead Alive, and Company of Wolves because they terrified me are burned in my memory for life.
@@kr00m i very much miss roaming the isles for a movie. Staying home and having a movie night was so much more of an event when you had to go out and rent them.
Dude, the laughter at th end of the video that got into the movie totally earned. I never knew Charles Band and Stan Winston back in those days, this video only made me miss Stan and Carl even more, effects haven't been the same since.
That little toilet Ghoulie freaked me out as a child in rental stores ... but also probably helped trigger my fascination with horror movies, and the allure of the horror section. RIP, video rental store horror sections. Those were dark magic.
When I worked at a video store, when I was a teenager, we had some of the people that worked for full moon come out and do a little event at our video store. They were the horror version of Netflix for straight to video for video stores.
I was 4yrs old when this film came out, and that image of a monster with suspenders in a toilet is seared into my memory. I saw the poster in the theater lobby, and years later, on the VHS shelf. I think this one and Nemesis with Olivier Grüner were the top 2 B-Movies I didn't see until adulthood.
Never saw this, but I vividly remember the poster/vhs cover and the numerous trailers I saw for it when watching other horror films. It's weird how something I haven't seen can be iconic to me but it's an eye catching image.
I saw Ghoulies when I was probably-a-bit-too-young and had a blast--never even considered the toilet thing as something that could be remotely phobia-inducing. Arachnophobia, on the other hand, had me lifting the lid to double-check for DECADES, and I was much older when I saw that.
Haha. Everyone that was a kid in the 80's saw everything when they were a bit too young. Good times. Blend video rental shops with distracted parents, and you had 6 year-olds watching Return of the Living Dead. Haha
I remember this one well. How could you NOT remember the monster coming out of the toilet on the cover?? That was a staple in our video stores for YEARS after the movie had run it's course. It was an image that just grabbed you and refused to go unnoticed. On a different note, those old school FX took balls to do. Things like the eyes. You had to be confident in your FX guy, and probably a little crazy, to put things like that in your eyes. Just thinking about what happened to Richard Moll in the Sword and the Sorceress makes me shudder.
You're obviously way too young to have ever worn (even soft) contact lenses, I'm gathering; I've been 'snowblind' for weeks, in my youth, thanks to wearing them, partying, sleeping in them, getting up and going to work with them still in, scratching the living hell out of my corneas. But, the caveat is that, when you're young, you're made of rubber, magic and ridiculous amounts of adrenaline.
I remember renting this as a kid (I must have been around 10 but in those days no one seemed to care...). That image of the Ghoulie in the toilet was so effective.
@@Dc-alpha Psssssst... What happens on Epstein Island stays on Epstein Island. Just ask the two Bills: Gates and Clinton. They kept silent like real gentlemen. :)
@@moserfugger6363 Oh no not true, Bill C is very vocal, especially during, Bill G.... well he's just not a talkative man. That thing with the Zucchini and the wd-40 was a new one though.... Wait, I mean errr.... Windows '95 and the usb.
I remember the poster more than them actual movie. I grew up with the sequel over the first. But, it was interesting seeing Mariska Hargitay in a pre-Law In Order SVU role.
Speaking of Winston, Band and Parasite, here's a fun fact for you, in the book The Winston Effect, about Stan Winston's career, Winston states that he had turned down doing the effects of E.T. to do Parasite, which he quickly came to view as the most foolish mistake of his entire career, and quite tellingly the book has no section or photos of Parasite, just briefly mentions it, but that the film got him some uncredited directing experience.
Speaking of Troll, my dad and the woman who owned the local video store used to prank each other. One she would occasionally pull was to stick the Troll video tape in the case of whatever movie we had rented. She must have done this a dozen times, so I have seen that move way more that anyone with a choice would. We didn't have cable because we lived waaaay out in the woods, so going back for another movie was out of the question.
I always end up forgetting how many films the Bands have been involved in in one way or another, and which ones they had a hand in, and I'll start watching something, see the name or the company logo, and just sigh. You really can't escape them, and that's impressive and deserving of some amount of respect, and perhaps even some admiration.
The marketing worked on me. Didn't even see it until high school, but was terrified of sitting on the toilet based on the rental store's cover art itself when I was very small.
Great job on the video, Cecil. Your research is always appreciated, no matter how well-known the film is. I also thought that Ghoulies was a Gremlins knockoff at the time, so thank you for setting the record straight.
My dad used to record all of the movies on HBO, so I found this in his vhs pile one day, and watched it. I ended up drawing the toilet ghoulie for a class assignment in 2nd grade. I was strange.
John was a class act. I always loved his work. I wrote him an email once about a terrible sci-fi stinker he made, and he replied to my email and gave me a pair of free tickets to Hacket. Hilariously enough he admitted that the sci-fi film wasn't very good.
I grew up in a tiny town in the Philippines. There was a program called 'Movies to Watch' which played trailers of up and coming movies. That monster popping out of the toilet stuck in my head but not as much as that pumpkin head child scene in Halloween 3.
I have a soft spot for Ghoulies III: Ghoulies Go To College. I've always admired how Kevin McCarthy (no, not the politician) gave his all no matter the project. Also, the movie has a ton of eventual stars. It's adolescent fun and I hope you'll cover it some day.
My buddy Ron and I went and saw this in a nearly empty theater, and we riffed it ala MST3K (four years before there even was an MST3K) to an appreciative handful of folks. Somewhat hypocritically, this became a Blockbuster-and-chill with a girlfriend a few years later.
I saw Ghoulies and Ghoulies 2 a lot on cable growing up in the 90s. I enjoyed them so thank you for doing an exploring on the first film. It was cool learning all this behind the scenes information. Thanks Cecil!
Could not click hard enough on this. I'm drunk and ready for sleep but I had to watch this video. I only ever saw the third film as a teen in the early 90s but recently watched the first film a few years ago. It was actually pretty good and I enjoyed it. I kind of wish I gave the other films a chance because I loved the creature feature films of that era, especially Munchies and Hobgoblins. Speaking of which, I'd love to see you cover Critters, Cecil. That one is a most beloved childhood classic that I rented a million times and watched to death. Just after getting over my fear of the bounty hunter transformation scene that freaked me out on the first viewing. As was the rite of passage for all 80s kids.
Now decades later, the creators of Ghoulies want to do a reboot of the franchise with Lionsgate financing and distributing the film. But the studio wants to see proof that there’s interest from the fans, personally I’d be absolutely down for a reboot because there’s a lot of potential to be creative with the demons and such, BUT it has to be a horror comedy instead of being darker for no reason. Also the script has to be really really good, and not be a horrible slog to get through like some remakes and reboots in recent years. Oh and the budget has to be significantly higher than the original films so we can get quality practical effects and digital effects, I don’t want this movie to be dirt cheap like Jeepers Creepers: Reborn and Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey.
damn, that insult hit hard…and it was funny as hell and true! unintentionally done by the designer, but that actually made it even better as it got remembered for all of the right reasons
I remember watching the is on VHS maybe a year after it came out. The was like 8 or 9. I didn’t really think it was scary. In fact, the part with the ghoulie coming out of the toilet was funny to me and my siblings. I thought the sunglasses with the motorized wipers were cool and was glad that everyone who was killed came back at the end. It was certainly way less scary than “Evil Speak”.
From the box art I used to see as a kid, I assumed it was going to be a dumb goofy horror comedy closer to Gremlins, but it's actually a pretty dark badass movie.
I was about 8 years old and was at the video store with my dad, looking for something to rent. The clerk at first recommended Ghoulies....and then stopped and asked how old I was. He then reconsidered and handed my dad a different movie... Toxic Avenger. "He might like this one more."
Thats hilarious considering how insane Toxic Avenger was. I think that happened often, kids who were into the cartoon were recommended the movie which was way too in appropriate for kids. Pretty inappropriate for some adults, even
@@chrisbarrett8377 I remember not finishing the movie. I think I got to the part of the movie where he actually turns into the Toxic Avenger and turning it off and saying "I think this movie is too old for me."
You made it to the boobs then! There's a TV edit on TH-cam that's more appropriate for younger audiences. Veiwer discretion still advised th-cam.com/video/K5B8fQMRXKQ/w-d-xo.html
I was scared of everything as a kid, so I passed on this one. By the time I grew out of my fears (which took longer than it should have, I'm sure) I never got back to watching this one.
JCB was an extremely competent director. Ghoulies 3 is way better than it deserves to be. I hear he was also a really nice guy, and was very easy to work with.
When I was about 5 I saw the box-art for "Ghoulies" which featured one of them coming out of a toilet. My tiny brain went: "toilet + monster = butt not safe" so I spent about 2 years afraid of pooping, lol
Back in the day, I saw this laying around in the DVD section a lot. But I never chose to pick it up. Sadly, like many people, just looking at the cover, I just thought it was a low budget nock off of Grimlins. I wanted to watch it but at the same time, I didn't. I was mixed on the film. BUT NOW after hearing about the filming history and the making of the film, I can't believe I haven't seen this movie yet! I'll definitely order my copy from Amazon. If you're right about this being similar to Puppet Master, I think I'm really gonna like this movie! THANKS!
Well, here's my 600th time, asking you to do a video on Invasion USA, well time to bash some seals, Although I do like knowing more about Empire pictures.
As a kid, I would have to check the toilet to see if Ghoulies were waiting for my ass. The main theme was also very memorable, so memorable. In fact, the first time I watched Re-Animator, I thought I had accidentally put in Ghoulies.
15:30 Mines too Cecil! I admit I never ever been the biggest fan of this film I actually prefer"Ghoulies 2" over this film I like the characters a lot more in that film plus it was great to see the Ghoulies go wild at a Carnival plus at the end of that film the human villain gets a "Ghoulie" eating his ass off 😂.Another fantastic installment Cecil👍👍
I know Ghoulies 2 isn't... AMAZING, but I would love an Exploring on it. It was one of the first horror comedies I ever saw as a toddler and it's majorly responsible for my taste in goofy schlock.
It took so long to talk my mom into renting this when i was a kid. She was afraid I wouldn't use the bathroom ever again. 😄 it didn't scare me, but it was awesome!
Thank you for creating this awesome tribute to Ghoulies my friend! I remember being inside one of those old nook-and-cranny VHS video stores in the mid-1980s and discovering this gem. In a way, it kinda reminds me of the movie the Spookies. I loved all the 80s horror-style VHS poster artwork. Such as the stuff and microwave massacre. I remember that the VHS store at the time was playing a scene from Creepshow with the late great Leslie Nielsen in the episode something to tide you over. Ghoulies along with Creepshow are what spawned my passion for horror, also probably my childhood fear of the toilet. Thank you for helping to keep horror movie history alive. Could you do a special for Slaughter high as well as Squirm, please?
Every kid of the 80’s and 90’s can picture the VHS box clear as day in their head. This movie rocks.
that VHS box cover SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME and i dreaded going into video stores out of fear of seeing it.... as an adult i watched the movie and enjoyed it!!!
#1 box art that stuck with me as a kid... that terrifying/ exciting walk through the horror isle when id sneak away from my parents every time wed go
Didn't wanna go to the potty after that VHS cover
I always thought that lil ghoulie on the vhs cover was wearing overalls lol finally realized he’s wearing a cute lil belly shirt
I never even watched the movie, but I remember seeing that cover and I never forgot it! It made me scared to take a s**t!😅
JCB was such a cool guy and clearly loved talking at length with fans at conventions and such. I treasure the poster he gave me for his (still unreleased, possibly abandoned/lost) final project, Wizardream. It sits in a frame over my movie shelves.
Your double down on the tagline before the credits made me gut laugh. Thanks Cecil
Yeah I burst out later laughing way too hard myself at that too.
Same. Its a great tagline!
lol thanks :)
That tagline is so much better anyway
they really should have kept it.

The goul in the toilet ad campaign,is the only reason me and my brothers rented this, when we were wee ones.👌🏻
I saw Ghoulies around Halloween 2017 and I’ve been waiting for the Good Bad Flicks take ever since
Love all ur vids but "Exploring" series is my fave. Loved hearing about the lore behind this iconic franchise!
Thanks!
I am loving what you're doing, Cecil. Keep up the fantastic work, man.

Ghoulies is a goofy, wacky & over the top cult classic. Just sit back & enjoy for what it is...Stupid funny!
One of my favorites as a kid.
Ghoulies 2 actually gave us the ass eating scene. I saw that on tv like 30 years ago and I still think about it when I hit the head.
I read that as "I still think about it when I hit my head", which is also hilarious.
I so miss the 80ts and 90ts movies
Next to Nightmare on Elm Street keeping me out of beds for awhile, the same goes with Ghoulies and toilets. I loved this movie!
The VHS cover for this film was iconic. I would always see it while browsing Blockbuster Video as a kid. :)

I know Ghoulies 2 isn't... AMAZING, but I would love an Exploring on it. It was one of the first horror comedies I ever saw as a toddler and it's majorly responsible for my taste in goofy schlock.
It's my favorite out of the film series.
Let's goooooooooo
It took so long to talk my mom into renting this when i was a kid. She was afraid I wouldn't use the bathroom ever again. 😄 it didn't scare me, but it was awesome!
Thank you for creating this awesome tribute to Ghoulies my friend! I remember being inside one of those old nook-and-cranny VHS video stores in the mid-1980s and discovering this gem. In a way, it kinda reminds me of the movie the Spookies. I loved all the 80s horror-style VHS poster artwork. Such as the stuff and microwave massacre. I remember that the VHS store at the time was playing a scene from Creepshow with the late great Leslie Nielsen in the episode something to tide you over. Ghoulies along with Creepshow are what spawned my passion for horror, also probably my childhood fear of the toilet. Thank you for helping to keep horror movie history alive. Could you do a special for Slaughter high as well as Squirm, please?
Thanks for watching!
Thank you. Now I know what I'm watching this weekend. :)
This movie terrified me as a 7 year old and I had a very hard time going to the bathroom.
I use to have a similar issue with bathtubs cause of ghostbusters 2 when I was young
LoL
😄

I’m glad you mentioned Parasite. I thought I was the only person who saw it.
Been a while since I've heard you drop a fuck on here. Sweet
Some people like Ghoulies others like Gremlins. Real ones love Critters.
