Help With a Goofy Movie Contest
Josh writes with a request about a Filmwise contest:
It’s a ridiculous time-waster contest, and I actually have zero interest in the prize package, but I’ve tapped everyone I know and NOBODY knows the answer to #5. Can you identify this film? We’d all really like to get some sleep this week.
It’s funny–every screenshot looks familiar, but I could only get about a third of the answers off the bat. To me, #5 suggests Beetlejuice. Or is it some kind of mutant monkey? Filmwise, by the way, has great contests.

#5 is Pee Wee’s Big Adventure - that’s Large Marge!

Dang it! Somebody beat me to it!
I confirm Josh’s answer. It is indeed ‘Large Marge’ from Pee Wee’s Big Adventure.
(”It was the worst accident I ever seen!” is what Large Marge says shortly before this happens.)

“On this very night…
10 years ago…
along the same stretch of road…
in a dense fog…
just like this…
I saw the worst accident I ever seen…
There was this sound…
Like a garbage truck!
Dropped off the empire state building!
And when they finally pulled the driver’s body…
From the Twisted… Burning… Wreck…
It looked like…
THIS!!!!!! ”
“AAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
