"Perfect Couple"
Really? Just curious...why?
ETA: That question for Strega, not Tim.
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

"Don' be e-scared"
Right, Kristen?
ETA: that was me sharing Kristen's incredulity.

Perfect Couple was my least favorite. I was surprised at how much I disliked Amber's performance.
(I'm putting that in spoiler font, just in case.)

Although the camp aspect gives Mommie Dearest a run for its money, so I suspect Strega is enjoying it on that level.
Which, by the way, we embraced when finishing it.

Huh. I'll have to watch it again now. Well, not now now, but soon. Maybe tomorrow night.
It may just be that I thought it was funny. I'm really easy that way. (Shuddup, I am so.) I liked that we were following the killers from the start, and saw their whole dynamic instead of hearing about it.
Now I can't remember. Mostly I remember giggling at various very wrong things. It was like 2 AM when I saw it, so that could have been a factor.
ETA: Ah, yes. If it wasn't supposed to be funny, that'd be a problem. But it came off as intentional!

It was intentional.

That part I liked too, Strega. It was interesting.
I think I missed the camp. It felt, to me, less campy and more...corpsey? Block of woody?

Then you're all crazy and it was good! Er, from what I remember. I reserve the right to decide I was hallucinating when I watch it again. Which I'd like to do now, but I should go to bed. Maybe it's me that is crazy, but that was the one I thought, "Hey, I could show this to my family and they'd like it... well, except for the rapeyness and shotgun blasts and on second thought, no, forget that idea."
Why do you think it didn't work? I'll catch up in the AM, because I'm really & truly going to bed. Really.

I think I'm too tired to remember anything beyond what I already said. Maybe tomorrow, after I've had some more sleep, I can make my brain work.

[insert something funny here]
You don't have to kick yourself! I'd be glad to do it for you, for future reference.
Noted!
