The Good, the Bad and the Weird.

Stuff we watched this weekend:

The Good:  Brick.  Grown-up Lukas Haas!  Cameo by Richard Roundtree!  Who knew that the 3rd Rock kid got so damn tall?  Classic noir story, set in a high school -- fab snappy dialogue, so fast that I want to watch it again because I know that I missed stuff.  Super.

The Bad:  I finally showed Josh the original Nightmare on Elm Street.  He's now of the opinion that it's the Worst Movie Ever.  Highlight of the viewing experience:  I realized that when Nancy and Johnny Depp are walking to school, he takes her books and carries them because he's a Nice Young Man -- except when he runs to class, he never gives them back!  Whatever.  It still rules, regardless of how much Josh mocked me for loving it.

The Weird:  Motel Hell.  "It takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent fritters."  Cannibalism, a human garden and a chainsaw fight.  Also fake cows and real bear traps.  Rad.  Funny.  Weird.
