Same as the old Sleestak!

First pic from the big budget, big screen remake of the old Sid & Marty Krofft live action kids' show, LAND OF THE LOST. The new film, a comedy, stars Will Ferrell and a bunch of unknowns. OK, maybe it doesn't have suck a big budget.

But these Sleestak look DAMNED COOL!

The first season of the show was surprisingly intelligent because story editor David Gerrold lassoed a bunch of former STAR TREK writers to pen scripts. The show was also remade by the Chiodo Brothers in 1991, and while it featured some cool effects, they clearly did not grasp what made the original so charming.

All together now:

Marshall, Will, and Holly
On a routine expedition
Met the greatest earthquake ever known.
High on the rapids
It struck their tiny raft.
And plunged them down a thousand feet below.

To the Land of the Lost.
To the Land of the Lost.
To the Land of the Lost.
