Forbidden Zone is the hilarious brainchild of Danny Elfman, starring Danny himself as Satan (no leap of imagination there). Danny Elfman’s early career with The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo conveniently provided the soundtrack for the movie, and what a soundtrack it is!!! Being that it’s a comedic musical drenched with Yiddish humor just makes it that much more hilarious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frenchy (a foreign exchange student, maybe?) is sucked down a hole in her families basement and ends up in the Sixth Dimension ruled by the evil Queen Doris and her perverted staff of dancing frogs and the weirder-than-weird performers known only as the Kipper Kids (one of whom is actually married to Bette Midler). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luckily for Frenchy, King Fausto of the Sixth Dimension (Herve Villachaiz, “de plane, de plane!”) has fallen for the young French girl, much to the Queen’s dismay. Frenchy and the Queen duke it out for the coveted position of least hated among the inhabitants of the Sixth Dimension. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With its cheap sets and incredible overacting, this black-and-white yet still somehow colorful movie is a great find for any cult classics fan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
