Movie anagrams!

[retrorussell]

Make a sentence with a movie title, then later in that same sentence make an anagrammed word or series of words.
Add (the) or (a) or whatever in parentheses between the anagrammed words if you must to make them work.
Example:
Watching SAW WAS an unpleasant experience.
Now, you try!  Capitalizing the movie title and its anagrammed word(s) helps its clarity, I believe.

While watching HALLOWEEN I was compelled to HOWL (at) ELENA for running the vacuum cleaner during the film.

Every time I watch THE AWAKENING at my friend's house, I fall asleep drinking GIN, THEN WAKE A half hour later and miss the ending.

Reading a synopsis for PIECES, I was prompted to "SEE PIC below" for a still from the film.
~also~
During a slow spot in BACKDRAFT I turned to the Arizona/Chicago Cubs game, just in time to see a D-BACK FART.
~and~
When I was young I wanted to see MANIAC so badly when it came out in theaters; I kept asking my mother, "CAN I, MA?"

I'm watching A SERBIAN FILM and can't see what's so shocking...
it's just some attractive european housewife cavorting around in various stages of undress...

oh hang on, this is A SERBIAN MILF.

My friends didn't feel like watching NIGHTBREED, but were instead interested in a game.. so I suggested, perhaps THEN BRIDGE?
