Review of The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987) by Johanna Steinmetz for Chicago Tribune — 19 Jan 1994
The biggest problem is with the kids themselves, which are played by little people with electrically operated fake heads stuck on top of them. The kids have very little expression, and their voices seem disembodied.
As a result, The Garbage Pail Kids Movie seems so much cheap fakery at a time when breathtakingly convincing special effects have become the rule rather than the exception.
