So, I'm curious about where everyone here lives, and any sort of food your area invented or is known for/regional. I noticed in the pizza thread a few people mentioned tuna and sweetcorn which I think is British?

I'm in the Philadelphia area. Known for cheesesteaks, obviously. I've heard the hoagie was invented here (uncertain if true.) We have the Texas Tommy (hot dog, wrapped in bacon, grilled or fried.) Scrapple (breakfast meat, a pre-formed block of meat made with pork scraps, cornmeal, spices. Tastes better than it sounds.) Stromboli, similar to a calzone. Irish potatoes.

There's more. I know Chicago has a deep dish pizza, Chicago dogs, etc...

I love a Hollywood mess!

EXIT 8: An expectant father becomes lost in a repeating stretch of subway, where failing to notice "anomalies" may trap him there forever. This attempt to map psychological meaning onto an abstract video game premise only works somewhat well; an interesting attempt that manages to be slightly underwhelming at the same time. 3/5.

Act of Violence In A Young Journalist (1988) - All of my bad movie training has led to this: being probably the only non Uruguayan person who would be interested in watching this demented straight to video adventure, which was the subject of a documentary I saw ^ a few days ago. It's quite long at an hour and 48 minutes, the subtitles are dodgy (the worst is when they are eating and the white words are across the white tablecloth), and yet, it was ultimately a unique and compelling experience. If I had to describe it generically, it's sort of like a giallo with Something Weird/ Ed Wood vibes and spanish dramas I don't know about thrown in?

A reporter is chronicling violence in Uruguay as a story. Entire five minute long real time interviews with "experts" are included. At the same time, she is being stalked by a violent guy, so apparently her reporting is accurate! Besides of that, there is a romance with some guy and they go on awesome dates to places like the Wrangler store in Montevideo and constantly pour cokes for each other.

The only way to see this is on youtube. It had some great 80's incidental music and scene fades and would make a superb episode of MST3K if that were possible. The two lead actresses look a lot alike and one plot movement left me as completely confused as I've ever been while watching a movie because of that. There's even a little nudity, too.

5/5

For some reason, I can never think about Hall Of The Mountain King without looking it up.....
I always find myself thinking about The Sorcerer's Apprentice or Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.....
