The Bug-Killer

The Bug-Pressure Soho-Goddess Got them both used. Goddess was really cheap, and it's basically alternative dance pop, inoffensive but fun. Pressure is a neat little experiment in dancehall and ragga techno (complete with Dancehall MC's).

One thing I don't see too often these days is the "Very Special Episode" of a show. Granted, in the past, they had this kind of thing all the time, s, here's some memorable examples. -"Diffrerent Strokes"-The child molestor episode. It seems like these days, it's the pinnacle of the "special epiosode" -"Saved By the Bell"-Jessie is hooked on Caffine pills -"Boy Meets World"-Shawn becomes an alcoholic and abuses his girlfriend. Or Shawn's dad dies. Or Shawn joins a cult. Man, Shawn sure did go through a lot of shit on that show. No wonder he killed a bunch of people in the movie "Cabin Fever" -"Fresh Prince of Bell Air"-Carlton buys a gun -"Good Times"-JJ meets Janet Jackson's Penny character, and finds out she's abused by her parents -"Punky Brewster"-Every Goddamn episode Any other examples folks

It's hard to believe that the man who directed films such as Polergeist has had such a hit and miss career. For every Texas Chainsaw Massacre, there is a Mangler. For every Funhouse, there's a Crocodile. His latest movie, Mortuary (which just aired on Sci Fi, and hits DVD on April 18th.) isn't exactly a miss, but it's not a hit either. The movie tells the tale of the Boyle family (which includes Denise Crosby from Pet Cemetary and Dan Byrd from the recent remake of The Hills Have Eyes), who move into an house in Arkham, Mass. Yes, this movie is heavily influenced by HP Lovecraft. That out of the way, the home is also a Mortuary, and of course, since it's a Mortuary in Arkham, only bad can come outt of it. Anyways, the son get's a job at a diner, and makes some friends (including Alexandra Adi from Slap Her, She's French and Tequila Body Shots, and Rocky Marquette from Shallow Ground). They tell him about the legend of Bobby Fowler, a strange boy who murdered his parents at age eight and is rumored to live in the cemetary, which conveniently, is in the back yard of our Teenage hero's house. Needless to say, it turns out that Bobby Fowler is real (and a bizzare, uneven mix of HP Lovecraft, the monster from Stuart Gordon's Castle Freak (which was inspired by a Lovecraft story) and Lucio Fulci's House By The Cemetary). Oh, and there's a strange fungus that possesses people, and brings the dead back to life. As well as a Lovecraftian creature who controls the fungus/slime. Oh, and the zombies can only be killed by salt. So, does it work? Well, yes and no. On the plus side, Crosby, Byrd, and Marquette do good jobs at their roles. The make up effects are well done, and the Lovecraftian overtones and references don't hurt a bit at all. However, there are problems. The first being the rather lame CGI effects. Another problem is that the other performances are uneven. The biggest problem however, is the general tone. At one minute, it seems like the movie wants to be a creepy gothic horror story and tribute to Lovecraft, then in the next minute, it wants to be a tongue in cheek romp. The two style generally don't work, and the attempts at humor are pretty lousy. Plus, don't expect a gorefest, Sure, there's a torn out heat, black fungus vomit, and some blood, but no major gore. Then again, several of Hooper's films aren't that gory (or even gory at all) to begin with. All in all, the best way to describe Mortuary would have to be uneven. I'll give it 5/10, since it's definately different, and it's never boring. However, it's not really good either, though it's not Hooper's worst movie.

Let's just say that when I saw it as a kid, Jaws scared the shit out of me, and Grizzly bored me.

Atheists identified as America’s most distrusted minority
Gary Floyd replied to Dimensions's topic in General Chat
I've actually concluded that most athiests on the internet (most, not all) are just 16 year old kids in the suburbs who are mad that their parents make them do the dishes. -

Gary Floyd replied to Dimensions's topic in General Chat
I'm not an Athiest. That out of the way, some of my best friends are Athiests, and I find them trustworthy. Except for this one guy I knew in Highschool who was an Athiest, but he wasn't really my friend. He was kind of a whiny pussy who probably cut himself and loved Marilyn Manson. Basically, I judge people by character, and that guy was a huge fag. -
Damn right it is.

Last nights episode of "South Park" was excellent. I basically have a feeling that the creators are done ripping on Scientology (which for now on will be known as Super Adventure Club, starting...now), which is ok. Plus, you can tell that they really are going to miss Isaac, though I hear he still performs "Salty Chocolate Balls" live. Randy Orton changed his theme song briefly I hear. I don't watch Smackdown, so I really wouldn't know. At least he doesn't have Nickleback as his theme music.

Why'd they change Randy Ortan's new theme back to his old one?

I say "Motherfucker...ifyoureach.. I don't know what I'm goin' to do" BUTTHOLE SURF!! etc. I was ridin' my cruiser in West Hollywood A girl came up to me and she was lookin' mighty good...

The kicker was Butters saying something like "My Uncle did something like that to me once". That poor fucking kid.

That was hilarious. I especially love the (not so hidden) ripping on Scientology. Plus, Kyle's speech at the end was great. You can tell that Matt and Trey are really going to miss Isaac. Also: "This Is What The Super Adventure Club Actually Believes" And: Feel free to take these images.
