Except, as many people as paid money to see Masochism!Jesus, I see too many people sharing Mel's psychosis for him to make the Big Leagues of weird. Scary, yes. Out-there weird, no.
Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin should be an inspiration to all of the eccentrics among us. He said that he "invented the Zeppelin in my mind" after a balloon ride in Minnesota in the 1860's, but he didn't get around to building one until 1900.

Also, I now need to form a punk band and call it Masochism Jesus. David, you'll be given full credit on every album.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Bwah! Never fear. Just a spring clean for the May Queen.
Phew. You know that May Queen is such a snoot. Her shadow's taller than her soul. Hand to god, I saw it.

Cool. Kind of retro late 80s when all the bands had some kind of Jesus in their names: Jesus Jones, MC 900 Foot Jesus...

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Jesus and Mary Chain (who were actually booked onto, like, the 700 Club before anyone there actually listened to their music.)

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Xenu is weirder than Jesus, pure and simple.
Not Mel's Masochism!Jesus.
The funniest part is how the torture in Braveheart was taken to be slightly silly drama, while the torture in The Sadomasochistic Fanfic of the Christ was taken to be received truth.
If you enjoy watching an illiterate man in a dress get tortured to death for his people, then you should enjoy watching and illiterate man in a dress get -- hey. It's the same movie.
