A Garbage Pail Kids documentary is coming out! Who remembers Garbage Pail Kids? I had a small collection (as well as a couple of Cabbage Patch Kids, of course – I’m such an 80’s child). Anyway, I now have a book showing a lot of the stickers that I never saw. Love them! Some of them are so disgusting & inappropriate. 🙂 They’d never make anything similar for kids these days.
The documentary coming out is called 30 Years Of Garbage: The Garbage Pail Kids Story. Here’s the trailer if you’re interested:
Oh, and I have to say that I loved the touching SNL tribute to Dead Poets Society so I figured I should share that as well. It’s called Farewell Mr Bunting:

i use to love collecting the stickers (yep, 80’s kid too)
Thanks fro the heads up on the documentary!
Yep! The 80s were the best. : ) I added a clip to this post that you might want to watch if you’re a Dead Poets Society fan.
that was hilarious!!!!! SNL every so often still gets it right!
Lol. Glad you enjoyed it. Wasn’t sure you would!
Y? Bc of the horror aspect?
Yep.
I remember these. They were so gross!
Hehe. I know!!! They really were. And borderline inappropriate for kids. Loved them. : )
When I saw Armison was the host this week I was like, how many times is he going to dress up like a woman?? Thankfully it was only once but – really – that opening skit?? Was it forty fucking minutes??
Whaaaaat are you on about? Who the hell is Armison? I’ve not actually seen SNL since, like, 1992. 😉 lol. And there’s no way to see it in the UK. But the skit I included must have been popular because it’s all over the place. So I actually saw it. 😊😉😜 #SNL : )
My brother loved them. I didn’t cuz they were so gross. Typical gender stuff in my family, though I didn’t like Cabbage Patch dolls either; they were just as creepy. I was a bit older though, so more a Mad Magazine kid. The trailer looks great, though. Thanks for sharing it.
You’re welcome! : ) I liked these & also Cabbage Patch Kids. I think I was just a sucker for all 80’s things. Oh – I was a huge Mad Magazine fan as well! I’d buy the usual pre-teen magazines with cute boys but still always got Mad Magazine at the same time. Didn’t know any other girls who read it! : )
Mad was definitely a part of my goofy 70s childhood. Reruns of Monty Python and Doctor Who too!
Oh, I wasn’t quite cool enough for those at the time. Although I watched them when older. I was obsessed with the original Twilight Zone series from a very young age, though. And the Alfred Hitchcock TV shows. : )
I somehow watched Night Gallery before Twilight Zone, but yes.
Love these cards! The movie – not so much.
Lol. Oh yeah… There was a movie, right?! Never saw it but can’t imagine it being good. How do you make a movie from these cards?! : )
