Evening Entertainment -- L.A. Connection's Mad Movies turns "The Little Princess" into "The Exorcist"

The L.A. Connection was a comedy trouble based in, obviously, Los Angeles, who produced the syndicated series "Mad Movies" in 1985, re-dubbing old films with new, comic dialogue.  The process was looked down upon by cult film fans for a while (check out the reviews in cult film mags for the L.A. Connection's REEFER MADNESS II: THE TRUE STORY and BLOBBERMOUTH) but they're really a lot of fun.  So fun, in fact, that "Cashiers du Cinemart" writer Mike White has recently written a book on the show, which you can read about here

In this episode, the Shirley Temple THE LITTLE PRINCESS gets re-worked as an EXORCIST rip-off.  (I could still do without the off-putting laugh track.)
