“Spooks” – The Three Stooges – 3D Slapstick
Our three favorite saps are schlepping this time as detectives and get a client who wants them to find his missing daughter. The boys take the job and go "undercover" dressed as pie salesmen (guess what's coming? lol) to the area where the girl was last seen. It turns out that the dilapidated house they stumble into actually conceals a secret laboratory of a mad scientist who is intending to use the lost girl's noggin as a brain transplant for his gigantic, bi-pedal, caged gorilla! Dr. Frankenstein is spinning in his grave!
This episode adopted the Fifties fad of the 3D process then popular in theaters. What you get as a result are two eye-gouging fingers shown going directly in the camera along with knives, pitchforks, water streams, and, yes, pies! Quick! Duck from the whipped cream laden pie before it splatters on your face, clothes, etc.
Not exactly "spooky" but great fun. Moe, Larry and Shemp, this time out, throw out the zany, zinger jokes and lay it on thick with the pies at the comedic shorts' conclusion. Perfect Halloween fare!
BTW - My featured image is an AI generated interpretation of The Stooges. Close enough, I guess. lol
