Ahh, one of the great cinematic classics of the modern era. Taking just five days to write and ten days to film, we all got together to watch "The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra" tonight. It's amazing and full of wonderful sentences like when Dr. Paul Armstrong is driving up the canyon with his wife to find a meteor full of atmosphereum: "Seriously, Betty, you know what this meteor could mean to science. If we find it, and it's real, it could mean a lot. It could mean actual advances in the field of science." Or Ranger Brad says "Oh, say... You don't believe those old legends about the Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, do you?" And the other scientist (two scientists in one movie!) says, "Ranger Brad, I'm a scientist, I don't believe in anything." If any of you are looking for a movie to watch for Halloween, I would suggest this one (with a healthy dose of it's a spoof so their acting is wooden for a reason) or Watcher in the Woods (which is actually pretty scary, despite being in the family section of the video store).

Stop that giggling, it makes me uncomfortable.

From Wikipedia:
A sequel, The Lost Skeleton Returns Again, was filmed in March 2008, again written and directed by Blamire, and featuring virtually all of the original cast (though three actors whose characters were killed in the original are back in different roles), as well as several actors who appeared in Blamire's subsequent Trail of the Screaming Forehead. However, unlike the first film, it does not repeat the "ultra-cheap independent" feel, but is intended to look more like a studio B-picture from the same era, such as those produced by Sam Katzman or Edward Small. It is scheduled to have its world premiere at the Mill Valley Film Festival in October of 2008.
Even when I was a child, I was hated by skeletons!
Always agree. Tip tip tip tip tip tip tip tip.
