Rarely will you encounter anything this funny.
Yeah - that is a good and funny movie - I love those guys. They do what Kevin Smith films fail to and more, IMHO. They are super-real. We bought "Coven" when they first released it. Much respect.

I'm afraid to start a list of my favorite comedies, there are too many. One day, I want to cover "Young Frankenstein"'s version of "Puttin on the Ritz", with a Herbie Hancock twist.

My ultimate goal in life: be a one-hit wonder on Dr. Demento.


What da ya want for nothing? ... a rubber biscuit?

Wow, you bought Coven....You know that on the website, there is a phone number where you can call Mike Shank directly. I've called it but only gotten a message.

The 'Cut Your Hair' video is amusingly nutty.

That's it. The band member's variously turn into frog-princes and get pissed.

interloper - No - I haven't checked out their website or tried to call. That's cool you tried to reach him...just curious - what would you have saidto/asked him if he actually answered?

Army of Darkness, Bringing Up Baby....
TarTar - "Bringing up Baby" is one of my all-time favorite movies. Whenever I am in a shoe shop, which is rarely, as I fucking hate shopping, but anyway, when I am trying on shoes, I like to reenact that scene where she loses the heel of her shoe: "I was born on the side of a hill, I was born on the side of a hill"... My husband and I have no sense of social decorum, but by choice!

Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, world is and old time favorite of mine.
I work for Amtrak and Jonathan Winters takes my train quite a bit. The guys a riot! Real quick witted. He doesn't like to fly so he's usually on the train around the holidays.
Have you seen Rat Race? It's a remake. Doesn't compare, but not bad.

note to self: get ass itchin' ointment...fer ass...that's uh?...itchin'!



I liked Rat Race, too. Johnathan Winters is one of my favorites. The gas station scene in "Mad World" is classic.
