Where's The Electric Toilet Paper?
1 March 2010
I'm not sure who this was shown to in the 1950's. I can't imagine this was shown in theaters. Maybe it was a classroom film to get the kids "hooked on electricity." And the amount of 1952 slang employed leads me to believe this one was intended for the kids. I was a tad confused as to why a healthy young man would pass up a swim with a pretty young woman for a lecture on fungus, then I realized, maybe he's just gay. Or, perhaps "horny" hadn't been invented yet. But, eventually, he falls for her and takes her to a dance, once she seduces him by using enough electricity.

Incredibly hammy acting was combined with having as many electrical appliances crammed in as possible. I counted 12 either mentioned or used. What, no electric hats or forks?

Maximum useless viewing. You'll learn nothing but what over-acting means.
