Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

after the ear-in-the-pudding

Yes, that was the scene that convinced me I didn't really need to me a PJ completist. People with stronger stomachs than I have assured me that the film is hysterical, and I believe them. I just physically can't watch it.

I'd like to see a Denethor Happy Father's Day card, myself.

I was informed just today that there's an unrated version of Dead Alive that has 12 extra minutes of footage. What could they possibly add?

Not sure if the version I saw was unrated or not, but it had the internal organs of a reanimated corpse crawling toward the protagonist after he'd used a lawnmower to chop the body apart.

Oh, and the reanimated corpse of the parish priest fucking the reanimated corpse of the protagonist's mother, almost immediately producing a freakish little zombie baby.

Either of those scenes sound familiar?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm suddenly glad I never saw this movie.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I'm suddenly glad I never saw this movie.

Wow. Very much with Teppy on this. On the other hand, my friend gave me his old copy of The Frighteners a few months ago that I keep meaning to watch, so I'm glad to see it reviewed favorably here.

"And the baby smiled at me!"

I forget Aimée, what was the context Ralphie said that in? I gather that, true to form, he was completely missing the point of whatever he was talking about?

Thanks for all the fish.

Mrs. Crabapple and Principal Skinner kissing in a closet and she had a baby and the baby smiled at me.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Gack.

So glad I'm not a completist. On that topic, there was a great piece on NPR a month or so back about all the old PJ films being slapped with "Make by the Director of Lord of the Rings" on them, and the horrified responses of uninformed renters/purchasers.... Heh.
