We've been watching some really weird films of late, I've been trying to get the wife to watch something's I consider good, but which she just considers too much trouble...
My ultimate aim is being getting her to watch, understand and get "Amelie" in French and "Night Watch" and "Day Watch" in Russian...
Last night we started off with "Re-Animator", something I consider a classic... I leave the obvious observations behind, but something struck me as hilarious, something I'd not spotted before or at least not been conscious of being a teenager watching this mid-80's video nasty.
There's a scene in the film where they first animate a corpse, and the Dean of the university comes down and challenges them... And... He gets killed... So they reanimate him, of course, like you do... He of course goes crazy, so they lock him up in a padded cell, so the next shot...
We have him in his padded cell, he's salivating blood, he's banding his head on the glass......
BUT...
And this is where I lost it....
This padded cell, the window opens on his office... With his awards on the wall...!?!?!?!
I was so busy laughing I couldn't figure out, "Did they bring his awards to show him how human he was?" OR... "Did this sick fuck have a padded cell to watch random victims bounce off the walls as entertainment?"
I'm not sure which was worse? But it entertained me....
Especially when his daughter is co-oped to sign the frontal lobe surgery in that very room...
Come to think of it, the office is probably the "bad" doctor there... But why has he got a padded cell in his fucking office?!?!?!?
