Keep an eye peeled-cha. [More:] There was once a movie called It Came From Hollywood. It consisted of a lot of b-movie clips (monster flicks, juvenile delinquent films, don't-do-drugs stuff, thant kind of thing) stitched together thematically with comedic comments from Dan Akroyd, John Candy, Gilda Radner, and Cheech & Chong. Nothing Oscar-worthy, but a blast when you had some friends and some cheap pot. I used to have a VHS tapoe, but it was lost and I don't have a VHS player anymore anyway. Also, there's some kind of legal dispute so there will be no DVD release. This kind of sucks. If anybody finds a bootleg DVD or a digital file of it, let me know. Thanks.
it's... the attack of the fifty-foot chicken wing!!!

great movie. it they kept all of my old vhs dubs from way back when after i moved out, my parents may still have an ancient vhs dub of it from when they used to run it ad infinitum on hbo back in the day. i'll ask next time i talk to them.

in the meantime, this is the kind of thing that pops up on the pirate bay every so often...

If you know a way to get it to DVD, I shall reward you somehow, good sir.

bad news. i checked with the 'rents yesterday, and they did find a tape labeled it came from hollywood in a box in their basement. when my dad popped it into his vcr, it turned out that it had since been recorded over with a couple of old episodes of days of our lives.

fuck.

i have a couple of other potential sources - i'll post inquiries and see where they lead.
