I'd call Dr. Morbius's prop:
HalloweenRick's Mother-In-Law upon finding out her daughter's engagement.
Because it reminds me a lot of that moment...

LOL! I'm sure you'll feel vindicated when you see it finished...Not saying why,...yet.

My point still stands anyone who has the slightest interest in an automated prop will have a computer.

Are you banning stuff that uses mains electricity because the cost of an electrical generating grid isn't within the $20 budget, or that not everyone has electricity, after all there could be someone in the middle of Africa reading this forum!

Computers today are as much a utility as electricity, gas or water.

I know I've already lost this argument, but your point that not everyone has a computer on an internet forum is a little contradictory.

What are you a wise guy? I have TWO haunt neighbors who have self automated props who DON'T own computers, yet thier interest in automated props remains...Hmmmm.. and I have 4 automated props that don't use computers, even though I own 5 of them. I happen to know a guy who doesnt own a computer but uses one at a library to go online. I'm sure he's laughing at your post right now.

Oh Dr. Morbius-time for a little smack talk of my own-A little preview-if you will of my own prop--Still needs a little work, but I think you'll see by my tally at the bottom, I'm well within budget:

Old mat I found lying around the house: $5
Chains from my garage-oh-$5
Dressing my large muscular self in a loincloth and making raging noises-absoleutly FREE!
Just go ahead and give up now, good Dr.! Taunting is best served cold!!!
So long Phoenix, never really did get to know you except for your inane questions...
