I didn't think it was that bloody. (Well, a few scenes were somewhat gory.) I thought it was pretty good.

When me and my sister were younger my father used to manage Middlehope Drive-Inn. We would always ask him to take us to the drive-inn and he would always tell us only when the animated movies (read: Disney) were playing. He brought home the original movie poster of Ralph Bakshis Fritz The Cat to show my mother what the drive-inn was getting and when I found out it was a cartoon, I held him to his promise. Let the reader know that there would be exceptions to the rules and I would have to endure 13 more years before securing that movie for my VHS player.ChrisP said:There's another one? Yeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaa
Cheers again Mr. C. You always come through
