There are some movies better, and many much worse, but there is none quite _like_ that one! ---

I saw this performed at the Sacred Fools Theater last summer. Great music and just as wacky as the movie. ---

I stole it on VHS from a video store WAY back in the day (like, 1986 or something)- wish I could find it now! 🆒 Love me some Elfman brothers musicals! ---

Have you tried [Amazon](http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_18?url=search-alias%3Ddvd&field-keywords=the+forbidden+zone&sprefix=the+forbidden+zone)? 😉 I know where you’re coming from. I taped it off of a movie channel back in the '80s. Found a ‘quasi-legit’ (OK, bootleg) copy on VHS and bought it. Finally got it on DVD, and had to get the colourised version as well. ---

I know that FZ is on DVD (I still need to replace my VHS copy) I meant [Shrunken Heads.](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111175/)
