The Banana Splits Getting Rebooted at Syfy… But as a Horror Movie?

What the hell? That's just wrong

I have a very hard time believing that whoever owns the rights to that show would agree to this.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

I used to watch the show. My first thought was WTF? But this...

"In the film, a boy named Harley celebrates his birthday by attending a taping of the Banana Splits TV show with his family. But things take an unexpected turn — and the body count quickly rises”

makes me wanna see it! The thought of an 'unexpected turn' leading to any sort of body count at a Banana Splits taping has me!

Not Surprising Not when we have things like Five Nights at Freddys

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Seems creepy, I like.

Again... Lidsville. There's your Sid and Marty Kroft horror franchise.

Well it’s a SyFy movie so expectations are loooooooow. However...what? The Kroffts are still doing kids shows, they recently had a Nick Jr. show with Ceaser Milan’s son that even brought back H.R. Pufnstuf. (I’m under 30, my mom just knew a lot about It that remember.) I wonder if in the end it won’t be an actual reboot, but inspired by those characters.

One banana, two banana, three banana GORE.

I just might actually buy that movie. I’m intrigued.

Not quite how I remember it as a child.....

The Banana Splits Movie trailer is here to creep you out

 

[SomeOldGuy]

Just when I thought this timeline couldn’t get worse...

 

[TheDreamMaster]

Well it’s not awful...actually it’s really awful, but I found it kind of enjoyable. Everyone who dies is an absolute a-hole, and there’s a lot of gore, with one or two creative kills. I think most people will hate it, but I thought it was an alright watch.

I do wonder if this really was the leftover script from when WB had the FNaF rights. There’s a fair bit of similarities. The animatronic shop was straight out of FNaF.

Stopped at my local Drug Mart to see if if could rent it bu they didn't have it

I actually quite enjoyed this. Yeah most of the characters weren't likable, but I thought the kills and the gore was pretty awesome, especially with so much of it being practical which is just so refreshing these days.
