From The Onion:

Aging Gen-Xer Doesn’t Find Bad Movies Funny Anymore

HOBOKEN, NJÛDave Erdman, 34, no longer finds bad movies and other forms of mass-media trash culture humorous, the aging Gen-Xer confided Monday.

“I hate to admit it, but I just don’t get off on movies like Can’t Stop The Music or Krull or The Bee Gees’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band like I used to,’ Erdman told longtime friend Patrick Faulk, 33, over drinks at Melvin’s, a non-retro, non-hipster, family-style restaurant. “Even that one where Gary Coleman is living in the bus-station locker and picks winning horses doesn’t do it for me anymore. The sad fact is, I can’t get excited by anything unless I actually, without irony, enjoy it. How lame is that?”

I am serious about what I’m about to say: when I was about 9, “Trilogy of Terror” was on the 4 o’clock movie on WJLA in DC. I remember thinking the rest of the movie totally sucked, but that last sequence freaked me out beyond belief. I can still see that woman trying to bake the doll in the oven…ooohhhh, shivers.

Holy shit. Weird. We were totally looking for a good, cheezy if not totally creepy horror flick to accompany our wealth of green, green grass over the weekend.

We all agreed we would have a riotous time if we rented “that one movie with that like, native doll thing that had a sign that said, like, Don’t remove the necklace!…and that lady does it…holy shit man, that movie’s crazy!”

So my wannabe film snob-ass says, “Dood. I know that. It’s called Tales of Terror.”

“Dood! Cool! Let’s get it!”

(Later, at Hollywood Video, Rumbanik realizes that “Tales of Terror” is a total different film without that doll. He is now completely dumbfounded with the title.)

“Dood. It’s “something” terror. Something. Tales of something? Something of terror? Damn. Dood. It has a picture of that native on the front!”

Nevertheless, we never found it. You are a lucky man.

Krull still IS one of the coolest movies ever. I remember being in a Krull contest when I was like 11 and my prize was an acre of land on Krull, and I thought that was SO bitchin. Rock on, Blurb!

Are you kidding me? You paid money for something described as “the extended attitude version of Hell Yeah featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin!” Amazing. Did you notice what is said for Director? LOL
