Wow, I don't remember that one at all.
I'm not sure the name did them any favors, either, as it was based on a song from 1940, and telephone exchanges had been phased out at least two decades earlier.
I remember ignoring it in a VHS rental store back in the day. It looked too hokey and corny for me. (Still does, but happy to share it with you all regardless)
I'm sure they were targeting a certain (older) audience here for sure, with the name (and its song reference) and the classic era movie monsters. Wiki says they did alright money wise, so I guess that worked.
Excellent! I loved this movie as a kid.
