Was it Sleepaway Camp 2? Number 1 just gives you some minor bloating and gas.

If it was 2, what did you think? The House Exploding of course is all metaphoric, the house being your cranium, blah blah.

You've seen El Topo right?

yah, love LOVE El Topo, there's some cranium cadaverizing, right there. We watched a double feature a few months ago at clinton street: Children Of Men (great, best movies last year, this year, whatever) and then Holy Mountain, not Jodorowsky's best but still pretty cool. El Topo still takes the cake.

It was Sleepaway 1. Shit, you telling me I gotta do 2??? Christ. Alright.

Miss you, thought of you when we watched Sideways, you look a little bit like Thomas Haden Church... or he looks like you.

I haven't even done Sleepaway camp 1! Do you think I'm some type of Baltic degenerate race of superman? Probably not if you think I look like Thomas Haden Church, have to say though it sure beats being compared to that guy from Scrubs, or that little Judas dude for that matter.
On other matters, you would think that there would be some contemporary equivalent of Jodorowsky right now pumping stuff up onto U tube. I read somewhere Jodorowsky had attempted making the first Dune film in the late 60's or 70's, that would have been hot, maybe Al Pacino would be president now if he did, or the very least Paul Reubens.
Anyways, I guess all we get instead is Transformers, sans Judd Nelson.
