I totally read the sentence in the 8th paragraph as "Nurses rush to seduce her," thinking WOW this really is a different re-telling.spacejackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14902182763527176185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34993991.post-1165852703186523072006-12-11T10:58:00.000-05:002006-12-11T10:58:00.000-05:00Mr. Sasquatchan,I don’t tend to identify with the ...Mr. Sasquatchan,<BR/><BR/>I don’t tend to identify with the killers much, so I tend to be drawn to movies that involve clever types, mainly because filmmakers who want a clever killer are usually required to develop the victims and monster-hunters a bit more. I like the first two <I>Saw</I> flicks, for example, not because Jigsaw’s garbled philosophy seems sensible, but because the victims seem to me to be the main characters. And watching the fight to survive is where the real drama’s at. At least for me.<BR/><BR/>Of the slasher types, I prefer the original Leatherface. With his animal-noises and his gender identification issues, he was such a great, surreal figure that captured that original film's whole crazy aesthetic.CRwMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896615209770501945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34993991.post-1165850872946634012006-12-11T10:27:00.000-05:002006-12-11T10:27:00.000-05:00How do you like your evil killing villains ?
