Frankie Freako (2024)

Frankie Freako (2024) - IMDb

Viewing Date: 1/8/26

Starring: Conor Sweeney, Adam Brooks, Kristy Wordsworth

Plot:

Workaholic yuppie Conor is in an existential rut until one night he catches a bizarre ad for a party hotline hosted by a strange dancing goblin: Frankie Freako. Could this be just the recipe to spice up his boring life? (via IMDB)

Rules

  • “Frankie Freako”
  • “Shabadoo”
  • “Boink”
  • Mechanical robot arms (is that redundant?
  • A Freako says a pun

Quotes

  • “That part where you were sweating and screaming the whole time”
  • “I always knew this would happen…”
  • “Concubine? What that is?”

Viewer Quotes

  • “Is that a shoulder penis?”

What We Learned

  • Fart soda can be used as gasoline
  • If you keep giant jugs of glue in your home be careful- if it spills on you, you are stuck / trapped forever
  • Destroying your house in the name of ‘loosening up’ is totally worth it
  • Frankie Freako is a Christmas movie

Final Take

A lot of weird stuff going on here and it takes a while to get into the groove of the absurdity. Is this a drug induced hallucination for the main character? Is his manager at work a villain or friend? About mid way through it all starts to make sense by not making sense and was quite enjoyable. Even the “twist” payoff at the end works.

3.5/5 Fart Sodas

http://www.allwallpapersfree.org

Viewing Date: 1/2/2025

Starring: Andrew Bowser (from Youtube?)

Plot

Fledgling occultist Onyx and a group of worshipers attend a once-in-a-lifetime ritual at their idol BARTOK THE GREAT’S mansion.(via IMDB)

Rules

  • “Onyx”
  • Getting bullied
  • Onyx goes into his lunchbox
  • “Abbadon”

Quotes

  • “Mama always said… too mooch juice and the beast gets loose.”
  • “I’ll stick to my tiny wines.”
  • “I’m just a fat fucking fat fucking virgin.”
  • “Oh well, I dreamt I didn’t fuck anybody last night, so I guess we all had pretty fortuitous dreams.”
  • “What does it say about the virgin? That he has the power to cradle his flacid wee wee in his hands and cry for hours on end?”
  • “Sorry, when I get nervous I start singing Fievel.”
  • “Who’s to say what any of us are in this twisted palace built of riddle and rhyme?”

Viewer Quotes

  • “The picture is him pregnant with women around him barfing?”

What We Learned

  • Michael Bay directed Meatloaf’s video “I would do anything for love”.
  • ALF’s real name was Gordon Shumway.
  • Shit quick else be deemed unworthy.

Final Take

Not bad. Not bad at all. I didn’t have any exposure or foreknowledge of this Onyx character, which I guess might have gotten started as a series of viral videos on Youtube. Even without that, this was pretty entertaining. The Onyx character was just as realized as someone like Earnest or Pee Wee Herman. I think there could be a whole series of them. The supporting characters were good and the drinking rules paid off in spades, especially “Abbadon”. It’s definitely a full recommendation from us here at BMT.
