I got almost as many guesses for Frank Zappa's film 200 Motels as I did for the real film, Head (1968), the one and only feature starring The Monkees. (I wonder if, in 2006, FZ isn't recognized by more people than Davy Jones. Hope so!) The script was written by Bob Rafelson (who also directed) and none other than Jack Nicholson. Wayne Palmer wrote that he'd once read that Rafelson and Nicholson were rumored to want to do a sequel "just so they could use as the tag line: From the people who gave you Head!"
So congratulations and a glass of gravy with a hair in it to the following winners: E. Yarber, Wayne Palmer, Joe Rosenberg, Bill McLaughlin, Daryn Woodson, Jay Tiller, Bill Hearne, and Damian Strigens. And special congrats to Ken Schubert, who wins a grand prize that's so groovy, I don't even know what it is yet. (Sometimes with these prizes, Ken, that's best!)
