So the question has to be asked. Gamba or Frambuna...

...who's the worse demon god of a voodoo based cult?

I'll answer later. Just wanted to get the inevitable topic started.

(BTW if you don't get this, watch Voodoo Man. Excellent VoD)

[TriffRax]

Gamba's bush league in comparison to Frambuna. Frambuna could resurrect the dead and had Bela Lugosi and George Zucco in his thralls.

Gamba? Peh. I mean, who can't make a really fat guy drive off a randomly-placed cliff?

More important question: Was the dissapearing and reappearing fat man in the cult (the sponsor for the very obvious reporter) the same actor as the shopkeeper in Attack of the Giant Leeches?

Yes, that's Bruno VeSota. I believe he was in more MST3K episodes than any other actor. He was also in Daddy-O, Gunslinger, The Wild World of Batwoman, and The Undead.

Wow. Is he still around? He'd be an interesting guy to have an interview with on one of the Shout! DVD special features.

Well that topic got derailed fast. Trying to get back on track...

Yeah, Frambuna can bring back the dead (briefly) and apparently can keep them in stasis while they're dead. He can also tie ropes with his mind.

Gamba OTOH can keep a hot woman hot while still alive, for an indeterminate amount of time. He can also win you horse races and allow you to astral project into people's dreams.

So he keeps the hot stuff hot, and the cool stuff cool. Gamba is the McDLT of supernatural evil beings!

If Gamba's only powers are to be the McDLT of vodoo and win a few local horse races, my money has to be on the other guy.

Beside, our "hero" did not look like he took a lot to be led astray.    Never trust people in half plether sweater vests.

Keep in mind, the proof of the pudding is in the eating of same. Frambuna attracted a stock mad scientist, a goofy priest, and two panty-sniffing degenerates. Gamba, while pretty small potatoes, at least had a whole community worshipping him and enough of a steady influx to sustain frequent human sacrifices.
