You’ll Laugh, You’ll Cry, You’ll Puke, You’ll Die
“The Willies” was a 1990s horror anthology-styled film. It follows a group of young boys who are camping and telling scary stories around the campfire. The stories are ridiculous and unbelievable, and the boys continue to top each other in how crazy their tales can get. This promotional comic adaptation features two distinct covers on each side of the book that look like they could be movie posters.
Story/Spoilers (featuring the full The Willies 1990 Movie Synopsis for nostalgic remembrance)
Two brothers, Kyle and Josh, and their cousin, Michael, gather around a campfire and decide to tell scary stories to one another, each one of which they claim to be absolutely true (in the style of urban legends). The first stories they tell are about a woman at a fast food restaurant finds a rat in her fried chicken, an old man (Bill Erwin) who dies of a heart attack after experiencing the terrors of an amusement park’s horror ride, and finally an old woman who puts her toy poodle in the microwave to dry off and explodes it.
At this point, Michael says he knows a story they haven’t heard of yet (Kyle asks if it’s about when his friends “found the pirate ship in that old cave,” a reference to Astin’s earlier film The Goonies), and promises that this story will give them the willies.
The story goes: A young boy named Danny struggles at his school with bullies and an overbearing, impatient teacher (Kathleen Freeman). The only one who shows him any sympathy is the school custodian, Mr. Jenkins (James Karen). While on duty, Mr. Jenkins disappears in the bathroom, and Danny enters later to find Mr. Jenkins’ body with a detached head, and a humanoid monster lurking in the stall. Danny tells his teacher, who goes into the bathroom to investigate, only to be killed by the monster. Danny lures the bullies into the bathroom, and they too are killed. It is soon revealed that Mr. Jenkins was the monster all the time, with his body being a disguise. Mr. Jenkins moves to another school, where it is revealed that he is still targeting bullies.
Back to the tent, Michael explain that his father, the brothers’ Uncle Henry, knew Mr. Jenkins personally, hence the accuracy of the story. Kyle and Josh say they have an even stranger story to tell.
Their story goes: Gordy Belcher is a reclusive, mischievous kid who often plays pranks on others, and who is overly obsessed with flies (even pinning them into positions inside a model church). He becomes fascinated with a secret manure created by Farmer Spivey, which causes crops to grow in increased sizes. He often steals the manure from the old man, much to Spivey’s chagrin.
After being kicked out of the school after tricking a girl into eating flies, Gordy stops by Spivey’s farm, where the old man offers him a special manure with new ingredients, as a way to “call a truce.” Gordy goes home to find his mother has thrown away all his flies, save for three he kept in a hiding spot. He places them in the jar of manure which causes the flies to grow to an immense size overnight. They attack Gordy when he wakes up, and the boy’s parents find him with bloody stumps where his arms were. Gordy awakes the next day with prosthetic replacements.
Back in the tent, the brothers explain that Gordy is now made fun of by the kids he used to pick on. Michael is incredulous, to which the brothers contend that Michael’s story was far less believable. At that point, Uncle Henry arrives, and the brothers ask him to prove the story about Mr. Jenkins. Uncle Henry then rips off his face, revealing the humanoid monster from “Bad Apples”.
