Thread: DEAD RICHIE - Most Advanced Halloween Animatronic in the World?

Tweet

I just stumbled on this this morning looking for new animatronics for 2010.

Listed as "Dead Richie"

Description: For your haunted house Evil Mind Creations brings you the most advanced animatronic prop in the world guaranteed to turn heads. Very scary and realistic prop powered by pneumatics and servos.

"Dead Richie" Features 47 points of movement and an amazing amount of function as well as realistic sound and action. Entire feature of this prop is contained in this video. You've never seen anything quite like this.

I personally think it's ridiculous and don't see where all the technology went, especially since they show a full demo of everything it does. I have to admit though this company looks pretty legit. That promo video had some REALLY high production values compared to some of the other Halloween Prop companies out there.

You can see it better in HD mode on youtube, but here's the video directly:

It's a comedy spoof from Action That Sucks, or did you already know that?

What the heck??? I am totally confused..............

I think that might be overboard for a haunt.... Does anyone do anything that isn't just scary but disgusting in their haunts? I am not sure where that thing falls or where the line should be drawn.



EDIT: OH drrrr.... it's a dang comedy spoof thing.. man.

Yeah... sure looked real. Kinda relieved though cuz if that was in my house I'd be scared outta my wits!

I'm watching, and thinking the head looks stupid.

Then the fluff comes, and I'm waiting.

Then I hear a wet noise, and talking, but its not moving. I check to make sure my video isnt hung.

Then they show, well, not giving it away.

And I think, god thats a stupid feature.

Then it keeps going, and in Family Guy fashion, what was stupid at first, when it's completely overdone, it becomes hillarious.

And I'm still laughing :")

not what I consider to be halloween , his mouth didn't move or anything else unless i misssed something in the video

I think you missed a lot

ROFL, I turned it off shortly after the "tea party" comment. Good trick, though!

Freakin' hilarious. That was a lot of work by whoever did that, but I appreciated it.
