OH MAN, have you guys SEEN this thing?! it is SO COOL!
Alex Winter Directs, writes and stars in this not-very-well-known flik. Damn good. Heres the trailer to give you a feel for it.

Great, fun flick. You just can't miss with Randy Quaid and Rasta eyeballs. It was made shortly after the Bill & Ted movies, and, just in case you didn't recognize him, Keanu Reeves is featured as Ortiz the Dog Boy. It is one of the often overlooked great B-movies.  :thumbup:

Ha ha - I had forgotten about that film. I rented this from my local Spar when I was young (thanks to parents that didn't really put much stock in the British Board of Film Classification's ratings). I have a burning desire to watch it again now, as it looked better than I recall. Roll on pay day (I don't think joining this forum will be good for my bank balance).
Where the hell is that soothing music coming from?

Oh, Freaked is amazing. Staple of my high school years, actually. Alex Winter is a pretty funny guy, clearly demented. What are the odds we'll ever see a DVD release of The Idiot Box? Much less than that of the State, I can tell you that much.

There's a pretty good special edition of Freaked available. Pretty crazy, too. The previews before the movie are for Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry and License to Drive.

I'd buy it if I were you, because I already bought a copy for myself.

Freaked is a hoot to watch. One joke a lot of people miss is the name of the Everything but Shoes Corporation, Dick Brian. Remember to eat the Macaroons folks.

Freaked is a great movie, hands down.  Plus it had Larry Bud Melman from David Letterman in it too.  I like the "I Like Ike" guy, too.

Almost bought this a few days back only for the fact I heard it featured "Michu" Meszaros, the fascist midget out of WAXWORK :thumbup:
