[net.movies] Spacehunter & 3-D

otto (05/08/83)

About 2 weeks about I was walking around the Clark and Rush street area of
Chicago when suddenly the area was flooded with what looked like
human-sized, hair-covered Shmoos (you know, Shmoos, from the L'il Abner
comic strip).  They bounced around, posing with random passers-by, while
others snapped their pictures.  It turned out they were promoting the Space
Hunter movie.  I don't know what relation they have with the film, but since
I have rarely seen this kind of thing before it would seem that the Studio
or Distributor of the movie is going to great lengths to promote it.

Maybe we should prepare ourselves for a full-scale media blitz touting Space
Hunter!
