Not to shit on the little bride and groom decoration on the wedding cake, but... aren't these movies pieces of utter, unredeemable shit that were knocked off in the 80s by some grubby little exec? As a teenager, I watched this crap and many other horror films with relish, but a few years ago, I tried to watch some of the Friday the 13th movies and they test the patience of the will like a motherfucker, I feel. But then again, I just HATE movies like that nowadays - even when I see them for FREE on TV, so the concept of paying ANY amount of money for them, let alone $20-50 is egregiously ridiculous to my being. I have vacations in Amsterdam and Dublin coming up, both shoe-ins for a good time, I'm sure you all agree. What an odd culture we have created for ourselves - nostalgia for pieces-of-shit 1980s light-gore movies? Oooh, oooh, they are UNCUT? Oooooh! I'm 29 in June, you might be 47 in April and your in a tiz 'cause the 5th sequel to a Jason movie is finally being presented as it was intended! I don't mean to rag of you, but this shit is funny to a cheerfully cynical pragmatist like me.
Our cultures are hilarious, though, right? Overly-intellectual feckless President at the helm of the U.S.S. Buttfuck, poison in the air, an economic catacylsm imminent and a shitty 5-day, 40-hour+ week lurking like a black beast of burden in the Monday Canyons yonder. We're like survivors on a raft lapping up seawater. Each saltly slurp makes us yearn for more.
