☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeCool Cat is involved in the entertainment industry, discussing movie production with colleagues. When pitched the idea of remaking "The Ape Man," Cool Cat is cast in the lead role. Cool Cat then begins working on the film shoot, though complications arise with the production equipment, including an "Atomic Age Espresso Coffee Maker" that causes problems during filming.
Cool Cat and Kitten head to the Spearmint Lounge for a night of twist dancing, but when free lessons get underway, both end up volunteered as demonstration partners—leading to a chaotic dance floor showdown. As Cool Cat tries to impress with his moves, things spiral hilariously out of control, and by night's end, he's won an unexpected prize that's more remedy than reward.
Cool Cat enters a fuel-economy race sponsored by Sparko, hoping to win the hundred-dollar prize—but his wealthy rival Slyvestor has already bought an expensive sports car, seemingly unbeatable. With Ape's help, Cool Cat and his crew cook up a secret fuel modification in the garage to give their humble vehicle an edge on race day. It's a battle of ingenuity versus deep pockets, and you won't believe what powers Cool Cat across the finish line.
Cool Cat scores a movie camera for his birthday and decides to start a film production with Kitten and Ape—with Ape cast as the lead in a remake of "The Ape Man." When their actor finally arrives for the shoot in the park, chaos ensues, but somehow the gang manages to film a commercial for Poopsicola and actually get paid for it. It's a wild ride through 1962 teen humor as Cool Cat and friends learn that show business isn't quite what they expected.
Cool Cat's Big Daddy is tinkering away on what he claims is a world-changing invention, and naturally Big Mama and Cool Cat are worried he'll blow the place up again—especially after his last "project" turned out to be a stereo bongo that somehow exploded. When he finally unveils his mysterious creation to an eager Cool Cat, the results are pure comedic gold in this 1962 humor tale.
When Cool Cat's father claims he's been commissioned to paint a masterpiece for a wealthy art collector, it looks like the rent money will finally come through—but his unconventional approach to the project (involving an old sock and some experimental techniques) raises serious doubts about whether this deal will actually pay off. A humorous tale of artistic inspiration meeting real-world necessity, where even the most unorthodox genius has to come through for the family.
