I received my copy of "The Wasp Woman" on Saturday and enjoyed it
thoroughly. This is vintage Roger Corman from the late 50s. The movie
hadn't even started and Frank remarked that it starred Susan Cabot, the same
Susan Cabot that was bludgeoned to death by her retarded son--that sort of
set the tone for this one, which in my humble opinion (IMHO) was the best by
Cinematic Titanic so far.
Some of the more notable zingers were:
(The opening title showing the studio "Allied Artists--AA") AA--I just
talked to Bill W. and he refuses to be friends with this movie.
Hey, directed by Corman, so you know this was three days well spent.
Oh, this was back when Detroit made a nerdy pickup truck.
Look, what do you see? (An adult and doberman puppy) More problems for
Michael Vick.
All right, rats on smack--now we're talking entertainment.
If your gonna be a guinea pig, ya gotta SQUEEL like a guinea pig.
Lilly Munster had more subtle makeup.
Heroin, take me away!
Who took my activia, how am I going to poop now?
Which dosage should I use, the large, extra large, or the Belushi?
(The old man's pedestrian accident--offscreen) Oh, don't cheap out Corman,
roll a hub cap or something.
I love New York in springtime, it looks so much like Encino (California).
Oh, brother, she's shooting up again and I'm fresh out of heroin references.
Hi, my name is Janice and I'm a wasp juiceaholic.
