Jekyll and Hyde... Together Again (1982)
Loved it!
So it's a little dated now, it's almost 30 yrs old. Amazingly enough I have this on BETA tape and it still plays just fine. If it came to DVD I'd snap it up in a heartbeat.
The drug humor is not appreciated nowadays as it was back then. Then it wasn't as 'harmful'. Much like driving without airbags, seat belts and child seats. I can remember my father crying he was laughing so hard watching this. I had coworkers in the 90's who'd seen it and I could bust them up by getting on the intercom and saying "Iiiiiiiivvvvyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy".
Great lines, great spoof of the original, and funny to me anyway even three decades later!
Clerks (1994)
A view from afar
Been a while since I first watched Clerks, and at least two years since last I saw it. I can't say what it is exactly about this movie, but it had a hook that grabbed me. It wasn't the soundtrack, the plot, the B&W aspect, or even the characters that did it. It just grabbed a hold of me and said 'this is good'. Looking back from now, what I can remember of it the most would be the feelings of frustration ("I'm not supposed to be here" type of frustration) that we can all relate to.
It didn't suck.
