Well, OK, not quite. But in the world of Matt Berry's Snuff Box, then certainly...

The real still living dead-one is way cooler; www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9MuEA2eF8cSome of these disrespectful fuckers need to learn some gratitude and decorum when representing living legends... "There's nothing sicker in society, Than a lack of liquor and sobriety.." Quality. PS Cur - I did that thing I think. Better late than never hopefully.

Alas it WAS too late, Paul - the review was removed from Amazon so I had to re-post it so the comments after yours vanished too. Thanks anyway.
Matt Berry is probably one of THE most respectful, passionate people when it comes to stars and music of the past. Hell, he once appeared on a show dedicated to THEME SONGS from old programs talking about the art form they can be and why shows like Heroes and Lost need them. I went to see him play live and he performed renditions of theme songs from a couple of hit sitcoms from the 70s. The guy is amazing.
Oh, and Return of Captain Invincible was one of my first ever "I MUST find this on DVD" movies - and I did!

Eat it Grease! That was the greatest musical number ever. If Lee wasn't in my top 5 actors ever before, he is now. That Berry bit was hilarious too. Only at The Fortress do I get this stuff.

Apologies to Berry, it was my lame attempt at humour I'm afraid.
I'm only an inch or so shorter than Lee and can do a reasonable inpression - especially at the moment because I've a cold and my voice is a bit deeper than usual. I thought commenting with Lee-like pomposity was really funny - what a silly shit!
You've been under Ammies axe again Cur - what a naughty boy. How about posting some of the other reviews you've had removed so we can all be aghast at the desecration of the ideals of freedom of speech by nasty facists!

Cool Trashie, I've not seen better either, though I don't claim to be an expert in any sense, I thought it was better than all the songs in Rocky Horror put together. Those dinky little dances are the bollocks!
I only came accross this by accident a few months ago Cur and bought the dvd at once. I'd heard of the movie vaguely but had no idea it had great stuff like this in it....

Oh, I see, you were pretending to be Christopher Lee. Yeah, that, uh.. didn't come across. But as you're only an inch shorter than Lee himself, who must be about 8 foot tall, I won't argue with you..
I've only actually "lost" a few reviews due to Amazon. Thanks to putting my reviews on here too, if a review gets pulled I can just re-post it. Before the Fortress though, I lost only a couple of Disney reviews (they get pulled a LOT).
The Captain Invincible movie I watched YEARS before, and when I first got the net I searched Google under "Super Hero Musical" because I couldn't remember the name. And I got it for $3 from a (now sadly defunct) website. God bless the net.
