“When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Mannequin, and Hollywood Montrose was following close behind it.”*
The living mannequin Emmy might join the ranks of James Bond and Batman by having her history (which included the first film as well as Mannequin 2: On the Move) rebooted for a whole new generation. The original film stars Andrew McCarthy as a skeezy pervert who fosters an overwhelming sexual attraction to a mannequin. He’s able to turn the financial fortune of a department store completely around due to his painstakingly garish window displays before the mannequin (played by Porky’s Kim Catrall) comes to life and reveals herself as a reincarnated Egyptian princess and consummates their relationship on a pile of teddy bears. Meschach Taylor co-stars as a gay bonfire.
Gladden Entertainment want to give the reboot a contemporary spin with a hip, young cast. Yay. Moviehole is the harbinger of our impending cinematic doom, and you can see the trailer for the 1987 rom-com after the jump.
