Snipit:

Final Stupor of Thought:
Okay so no monkey’s, no midget’s, no robots, no clowns, no pirates, no penguins, no kung fu panda’s, no kitties and no ninjas. But, this is actually fairly entertaining and whimsical in the macabre. Most excellent twist on a bad thing in life that just took too long to build up to their end result. Mix in more of the end without the build up and it’s a great flick for an evening of macabre whimsy where you go, “Ya know there are some real dirt bags out there that I wish someone would do this to and everyone would just look the other way.” So, check it out and enjoy. I managed a grin or two. Otherwise run out and grab your copy of 10,000 BC out on dvd tomorrow. Just stop the movie after the girl dies. That’s all I am saying. Also out tomorrow is Futuramma and the Beast with a billion backs, the Spiderwick Chronicles & oh ya Xanadu the magic musical edition if your into that sort of thing. And if you are, watch Otis first and then Xanadu. Especially if it’s a significant other movie night kinda thing.
Punk go nite nite now.

Snipit:

Final Stupor of Thought:
Okay so I kinda grabbed this in a drug induced technicolor haze event thing. Ya. I think the cover made me laugh. I had no idea this was some high rated and like 10 years running sit com in Canada. It’s no Red Green that’s for sure. But, it had it’s moments now and again hence the rating and the itemization. So, give it a whirl or don’t. I did and I think I remember most of it. I was able to decipher most of the things I wrote on the wall in crayon. So, you may just like it even more. . . or possibly less. I was medicated. You make the call. Otherwise run out and grab Jumper on DVD. It’s lacking but much more entertaining than this was. Also out on DVD today is High Noon the anniversary edition, Otis and if you got the mustard and/or the required chemicals, TekWar the complete series.
Punk go back to staring into the abyss now.

So, there you go. You’re a noble man for dating such a benefit to society and you therefore deserve a night off.” (Ya were gonna just go ahead and check on that story in the morning.)
Final Stupor of Thought:
Well, happy freaking the day after Memorial day. What can I say this time. This movie has it’s clever moments but, it drags and it too happy and unrealistic except for maybe the very ending. Bottom line, I just had a week from hell that would be a good basis for a book or a movie and this movie was able to even take me a way for a time. So, give it a try. Otherwise what are you going to do? Buy and watch Rambo IV or the Rambo collector’s set out on DVD tomorrow? See Indiana Jones? Narnina II? Go on a date? You might as well just cry yourself to sleep now and save yourself some time and effort. It will all end in tears I tells ya. Tears.
Punk cry himself back to sleep now.

Toby to Dawn – (Toby)”You don’t have to do anything!” (Dawn)”No Toby NO!” (Toby)”Come ON! I haven’t even jerked off since Easter!”
Final Stupor of Thought:
Well, ya okay. Ya know I was thinking this would be more funny than serious. That’s what I get for not seeing the Sundance logo on the dvd case. Bottom line, this movie is disturbing with some interesting social commentary. Hence the Sundance showing. So, other than a fairly good theatrical backbone, it only had segments now and again that made me glad I watched it. That and that my friend Mark who is missing fingers on his one hand holding his hand up to the big screen TV and almost perfectly aligning them with the Dr.’s lost fingers. That was classic. So, unless you have a friend missing fingers that can bring some levity to a rather twisted movie, I suggest you just pass it by and get the remastered Indiana Jones trilogy out on dvd tomorrow. At Best Buy, they come with comics. That is unless you can’t stay away from the twistedness of this tale or you need to really scare your 7th grade boys away from girls.
Punk shudder himself to sleep now.
D.O.A.
That’s Right, They’re Ultimate fighters, they’ve got looks, they’ve got moves and men fall at their feet! You know, just like dating, prom or wondering around any school campus.

When slacker wanna be actress Jane decides to start out her day by playing video games and hitting the hooka, things just go down hill from there when she eats her psycho roommates drug filled cupcakes and then all sorts of wackiness ensues as her life proceeds to go from A to Z– (She proceeds to melt her cell phone and spends the power bill money on more weed only to go into debt to a drug dealer that takes her furniture, smashes a little kids toy model, freaks everyone out at the dentist, tries to sell her government weed to a casting director at a casting call, accidentally lets loose an original copy of the Marxist declaration into the wind, call a geek she hates that’s in love with her for help & money only to get him robbed, winds up at a sausage factory in northern California on her way to Venice where she finally wakes up in a Ferris Wheel in a daze wondering if she should reconsider what she is doing with her life only to get arrested and assigned to trash clean up where she falls asleep in a tire dreaming about getting her next fix.
Snipit:
Jane about roommate – (Jane)”Here’s the deal with Steve. He scares me. See what I mean. Steve is one of those dress in costume and wait in line for Star Wars types. But, angry. Real anti-social. I’ve always tried to stay on Steve’s good side. I mean who knows what can happen with a weirdo like that. I know he made that sign telling me not to but, I had a counter plan. A really good counter plan. I would bake Steve some more cupcakes. Some even better cupcakes. And then, I recognized the true nature of the cupcakes I had consumed.
Rating:
(2-1/2) Prozac’s and a syringe full of Prometh with codeine for: the grapenuts and rootbeer breakfast, a smoke detector beatin’, the world’s most comfy bed, pre frosted cupcakes, seeing demons, cooking the cell phone, a Flock of Seagulls geek, winking pigs, talking dogs, the evil smiley face in the sky, the dead monkey versus bears video game & YES Sunny days!

Other Memorable Lines:
Jane to Steve – (Jane)”Whoopie you own a UV lamp let’s start the revolution!”
Steve to Jane – (Steve)”Did you just use the word paradigm in a sentence?”
Jane to Mikey – (Jane)”I have to stop my dealer from stealing my bed!”
Narrator – “This has been the story of how a person started at A got to Z and somehow ended up collecting garbage by the side of the freeway. And, I think you’ll agree that much like life itself, it certainly has been one hell of a crazy ride.”
Final Stupor of Thought:
Well, huh. Lot’s of people in this thing. I think they all hit the hooka or went out drinking one night with the director and writer and the rest is history. It’s like a bunch of badly tied together mini skits. You know where everyone is going oh, this would be funny, oh no, this would be funny and so on. It had some interesting parts but it’s definitely not a gem with 2 of the prozac’s being for Sesame Street A to Z and the Dr Seussish narrator. So, unless your on codeine like moi or really are taking weed for medicinal purposes, you may want to skip this unless you need to kill time or just want to piss someone else off. So, just watch Captain Sulu try to show his other talents on Secret Talents of the Stars tonight on CBS or go out and grab TMNT S6, Day of the Dead or the complete series of Super Robot Red Baron all out on DVD tomorrow.
Punk go nappy time now.

SYNOPSIS:
Some 50 years after the small coastal town of Port Emmett voted down a proposed memorial & then decided to leave buried and unrecovered, the clown car from a circus train knocked off of a bridge by a drunk tug boat deriver in favor of paving the roads in town or something else, a fast moving hurricane unburies the long lost & forgotten circus train car unleashing a horde of irate cannibalistic clown zombies that wade ashore bent on taking revenge on everyone left in the town that decide to stay and wait out the storm. That is unless of course someone can figure out a way to apologize and bring and end to the carnage. You know like turning this piece of crap off and suggesting the video store find a way to loose it.
Snipit:
Killer one on the lamb to killer two on the lamb – (Killer one)”That’s why we had to kill him. The man of the cloth was a material witness.” (Killer two)”Do you think the priest went to hell? That would be funny.” (Killer one)”He should’a for only having $58. Seems like a waste to waste a guy for $58 bucks.”
Rating:
(1) giant Prozac’s and some Levaquin for: Smiley corn, getting’ hammered, clown cam, gauze intestines, the worst stabbing ever, a paper mache rock beatin’, the world’s largest movie theater, the 500lbs 2 x 4, spliced in storm footage, first it’s light, then it’s dark, then it’s light again, window sprinklers, about five minutes of dialogue total, getting rid of the zombie curse and OH probably not, Kalopie killing music and O H – B O Y, the were sorry please go away poster board & sharpie sign put out in the rain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Food:
A nice spiral cut ham and a platter of funeral potatoes (Because there not just for funerals anymore), an Easter candy turduckem, a box of Sugar Smacks, a few cartons of robin eggs (cause this movie damn near laid one), a fist full of decorated sugar eggs & a case (or two) of Zip-Fizz! You’ll need it.
Other Memorable Lines:
Ya know, this movie had like a script that was possibly three pages (at the most) total. CLASSIC! However I managed to find a couple besides the snipit. The 1 prozac had to come from somewhere.
On the spot reporter – (Reporter)”The sea looks angry today.”
Alderwoman to killers – (Alderman)”The clowns are out there and they are angry!”
Final Stupor of Thought:
Whew, ya sorry. Just be happy I watched it for you. It’s in the top ten worst movies I have ever seen and I have only ever walked out of one movie by choice. But, hey if you need to have something to get hammered to, here’s your ticket. Otherwise just carefully pick it up at the video store and kick it under the shelving on your way out with Tripping the Rift the movie, Pain Killer Jane S1 (Mmmmm Kristana Loken), The Upright Citizens Brigade Asssscat! Or even the best of the Price is Right all out on DVD today. Or just look for the one exceptionally classic movie that someone who was in this movie for more than five minutes was in. That’s right Eric Spudic was Ghost in a Teeny Bikini. An instant Classic. (Mmmmm Rebecca Love). And, yes it does come in edited and unedited formats to appease all tastes. The edited be good enough for moi.
Punk go bang head on counter now.

When geeks, nerds & losers start getting blown up at the local high school, the government decides to send in a secret agent but when the agent disappears and a new terrorist website with a countdown on it starts showing up all over town, they decide to pull out all of the stops and send in Yo Yo Girl only to find out that the popular kids have brainwashed the chemistry club into making bombs and now they are planning a rally for the downtrodden and outcasts from all over the country so that they can gather them all into one place and blow them up that is of course assuming it’s not all some elaborate plot to keep Yo Yo Girl and the authorities busy while the real bad guys rob banks. But, hey maybe just maybe Yo Yo Girl can be in two places at once.
Snipit:

Because the English translation is just sooooo awesome.
