And it was so good! (I mean, not good in the classical sense- but in the cheesy 80's movie sense- it was great! ;D)
Seeing that reminded me of two things:
1. They steal a scene in that movie right from another classical werewolf flick: "An American Werewolf in London." I imagine it was a tribute or a nod to The Original. :) ..Yunno; it's that scene where all the villagers go out hunting for "the beast?" Yup. Snatched right from it. W/woods, 3-foot thick ground-fog and low-slinking bogeyman in tow. :)
2. In the last ep. of "The L-Word" they totally make fun of Alice's previous roles in all those yogurt commercials. They've got her & Shane eating some nondescript, rather yogurtey looking substance together at The Planet, and they go through the whole "how good is it" bit. ^_^ *lol*
Yay for nods, tributes, allusions and outright thefts! ;D
On a related note: Does anyone know if SK approved of the afore-mentioned movie? I didn't see him in there as he usually does w/his cameos on flicks he's okay with when they make adaptations of his writings...
And secondly: That movie totally inspired me to contact my Ffffffather. He would be SO fantastically suited to making neato, motorcycle-inspired wheelchairs for kids n' adults alike! ^_^ He could put his bike and mechanical talents to good use, and help people at the same time. :D (An' I know he could do it, too. He is mad-crazy talented w/the bikes n' the mechanical skills.) ..I wonder if stuff like that is already being done... Hmm.....
Methinks I need to go do some internet checking... :)
