I'm suprised there is no C64 movie monster game remix yet. It's such a cool theme and it's by Epyx. If you haven't heard about it here's a youtube video about it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKN1RAMn1dA . An epic game for sure and one of the first ones with "destructible environment". I think I read about a remake/sequel during the early 2000's but haven't heard about it since. Just the usual vaporware I guess.

Now there's an old game for me to play.
I only knew of Rampage, this version for the Atari 2600 which I had. Movie Monster Game was wider in scope and I'm surprised I wasn't interested before.
And I daresay the 'percussion' rhythm of the guys running along can be sampled and looped and used in session!

Ah, that is a neat tune. I long assumed that the Movie Monster Game was a repackaged Crush,Crumble and Chomp which uses "Night on Bald Mountain" in its SID. The Movie Monster Game looks like a remake on par with the Temple of Apshai Trilogy vs. the original Temple of Apshai, and has its own unique SIDs. Nice!

Movie monster - I associate that with incredibly long loading times compared to incredibly short play times

Crush, Crumble and Chomp came first from Epyx (also on Apple II). The Movie Monster Game came later, and as LMan said it took a long while to loaf on tape. But they did actually license Godzilla and other monsters for it. I love the cinema marquee where you choose your monster, location and mission.
