''Rat Pfink a Boo Boo'' is a 1966 film directed by Ray Dennis Steckler. It stars Ron Haydock and Carolyn Brandt. Perhaps the most striking feature of the film — besides its low production values — is a sudden switch in tone and plot that comes roughly forty minutes into the movie. As originally planned, the film was a straight crime drama titled ''The Depraved'', inspired by Steckler's ex-wife Carolyn who had been the victim of a series of obscene phone calls. However, during shooting Steckler suddenly decided to make a parody of the campy ''Batman'' television series instead. As a result, in the middle of a crime drama, the star of the movie steps into the closet with a previously minor character and they emerge costumed as "Rat Pfink" and "Boo Boo", parodies of Batman and Robin. ==Title== Why the title is ''Rat Pfink a Boo Boo'' and not the more logical ''Rat Pfink and Boo Boo'' is the subject of speculation. According to legend, ''Rat Pfink and Boo Boo'' was indeed the intended title, but when the artist creating the titles made an error and rendered the "and" as "a", Steckler's budget would not stretch to the $50 needed to fix the mistake. According to Steckler, however, the choice of title was deliberate: "The real story is that my little girl, when we were shooting this one fight scene, kept chanting, 'Rat pfink a boo boo, rat pfink a boo boo ....' And that sounded great! But when I tell people the real story, they don't wanna hear it, so you better print the legend." 〔 The film is also known as: *''Rat Fink a Boo Boo'' - USA (alternative spelling) *''Rat Pfink and Boo Boo'' - USA (working title) *''The Adventures of Rat Phink and Boo Boo - USA (DVD title) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rat Pfink a Boo Boo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
