This is the type of movie that, once a kid sees it, will stay in his head for a long, long time. The images are just haunting. I'm sure that there's lots of people out there who saw this when they were kids, and still recall, in the backs of their minds, something about "monkeys on bicycles." And to have Edward Everett Horton from the Fractured Fairy Tales narrate this makes it all the more surreal. This is my favorite thing that I've found on the Prelinger Archives.
