Ho. Lee. Shit.

I had a rough 36 hours (I had to unexpectedly put down my cat) and I needed to get my mind on something else. So thank you for posting those NaHs. That was absolutely fascinating for a film junkie who has very little conception of the sorts of problems that plague film production.

I was able to figure out what Pokey Stick 2's real title is and I just watched it. You were right. Fucking terrible. I love shitty horror movies and I still hated it. So many problems. I can't imagine what that script looked like. It's just heaps and heaps of pointless exposition and backstory. Then it all gets delivered in wooden monotone by actors who seem extremely uncomfortable . Then there is no way to differentiate the characters. Then the whole last half of the movie is underexposed so you can't see much of anything. But the worst problem is that it's just flat out boring. That is a criticism that I try not to use, but it is the defining characteristic of PS2. I like your idea with the Front Line Assembly cut. Maybe work some public domain classical fugues in there with the industrial. Regardless, it sounded good. Which is amazing given what you wrote. You are a miracle worker.

Have you written NaH#3 yet? I am curious as to how it all shook out.
