Kiss That Frog
(Peter Gabriel's MindBlender)Location: Sony MovieGlide Theatre - Ridgefield Park, New Jersey
(ATTRACTION NOW CLOSED)Venue: Cabin (with Sony Hi-Def video projection) Motion Base and Programming Software: Thomson Venturer 3-DOF Film Production: Angel Studios for MEGA and Real World Director: Brett Leonard A very attractive woman is romanced by a frog who sings like Peter Gabriel.
An interesting idea - music video meets simulator ride. Sort of a combination of simulation and dance.
I don't know if it worked or not, but it was a grand experiment.
Watch for: Naughty pseudo-Victorian frog erotica on the Frog's bedroom wall, and the throbbing orifice-like windows and phallic decorative columns in the - ahem - ballroom sequence.
Maybe it's just me.
Trivia: As far as I know, MindBlender represents the first-ever music video ridefilm. The Sony MovieGlide version was its third public incarnation.
