Description:

"The Hungry Kook Goes Bazook is a zany title and zaniness continues throughout the film. This is a motion picture one would think could not be made. Even after you have seen it, you wonder whether this was a film with real live people in it or just another cartoon. Ed McWatters simply stole a cartoon and made it with real live people; that's how simple it is" PSA Journal, Oct. 1968, 48-49.
