Just Imagine (1930) ***

Enjoyably ridiculous science-fiction/musical with amazing set designs (clearly inspired by "Metropolis"). It also has trite dialogues, unpredictable story, bargain-basement songs, incompetent acting and mind-boggling costumes - all key ingredients of a memorable camp classic. Musical numbers include:

"There's Something About An Old-Fashioned Girl" *
"I'M The Words, You're The Melody"
"Drinking Song"
"Never Swat A Fly" *
