WOW! This was Painful to Watch!

So....what was the point of this movie exactly? That if you suspect that your local Mad Scientist, who is clearly conducting ungodly experiments, is crazy, you should notify the police? That is a helpful life lesson.

Okay, had to look up Benzedrine via google and there were some pretty interesting facts...... and I want some now!    If it is good enough for 007, that is fine by me.



Ian Fleming's superspy James Bond uses Benzedrine in several novels. In Fleming's novel Live and Let Die, Bond receives Benzedrine tablets amongst other materials intended to aid him in a mission. Bond takes a tablet and later credits its effect with preventing him from fainting after severe injury. Bond also mixes Benzedrine into his champagne glass in order to be more alert for a game of bridge in the novel Moonraker. In the novel The Spy Who Loved Me Bond takes two tablets along with his coffee in order to stay awake all night. Benzedrine is also the drug of choice of Bond's nemesis Le Chiffre in Fleming's first novel, Casino Royale, albeit administered via an inhaler.

Just ask Nikki Taylor's sister....(although they've now decided to call that an asthma attack)

And if you like the talk about Benzedrine in Bond books...ever read the discussion about cocaine in Dashiell Hammett's "The Thin Man"?  A character is asking Nick Charles about trying cocaine like their discussing a new diet plan.

Cole Porter should right a song about that, oh wait, he did.

My story is much too sad to be told,
but practically everything
leaves me totally cold.
The only exception i know is the case,
when i'm out on a quiet spree,
fighting vainly the old enui
and i suddenly turn and see,
your fabulous face.

I get no kick from Champagne
Mere alchohol doesn't thrill me at all
so tell me why should it be true
that i get a kick
out of you

Some get a kick from cocaine
i'm sure that if i took even one sniff
that would bore me terrificly too
yet i get a kick out of you

i get a kick every time i see you standing there before me
i get a kick though its clear to me you obviously don't
adore me

I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high
with some guy in the sky is my idea of nothing to do

Yet i get a kick
Out of you

the worst part is the enraged ape guy raping the zombie girl. i could have done without that.

I never thought I would see something worse on film than Mork from Orc having a baby ... but now I have.
