Brains and Slime

Chasing brains or being chased by them, this is good food!

This is a two movie recipe that was so much more delicious than we ever intended it to be.  Reanimator with green serum and The Man from Planet Arous for the, well, brains!

 

Our main idea was to create the “brains” and just add some green sauce. In the process we created something very savory.

The right pasta ( Radiatore) is imperative and it might take some time to track down. I don’t find it in every grocery store.

Brains and Slime

Huge exiled terrorist brains floating around controlling people (and dogs!). There is a little something for everyone in this B movie from 1957. Grab some of our pasta brains and slime ( alfredo sauce w/spinach) and at least your meal will be in good in taste.

Some of our animations are AI generated from my recipe storyboard ideas. (Using Google Flow) I am trying to balance the use of AI in video making and the environment, so I contribute to the - https://www.arborday.org/ - Arbor Day Foundation to offset my environmental footprint. It's not a perfect world, or solution, but I'm trying to be very conscientious about how we use technology.  I NEVER USE AI for recipe creation! These are all tested  in the Cinema Chef kitchen!
