Lines: 32 Keywords: Strange people, alien reproduction, asteroids. Anyone want to see a ``So Bad its Good'' kinda movie? Try _EraserHead_ (1978 Dir: David Lynch, B&W, 90 min). Capsule review: weird, Weird, WEIRD! Review: This movie is truly strange. I happen to like fairly bizarre flicks --_Liquid Sky_ is one of my favorites-- so I thought I'd give _EraserHead_ a go. Yipes! was I in for a surprise. I think it has got to be the strangest movie I have ever seen. Aliens ``mate'' with humans producing offspring who look like John Belushi's (sp?) brother on a bad acid trip. Mousy women give birth to little critters who look like a scalped version of ET. Asteroids float through space ominously. Many strange dreams. A radiator which emits a pulsating glow. Mysterious postal deliveries. Much flowing of body fluids, alien and otherwise. Mounds of cream-of-wheat. Illicit affairs in a jakuzi full of milk. Song and dance by a bleach blond chipmunk. Dinner at mom's. In short folks, this one has got to be seen to be believed. -- Trevor K. Flory UUCP: ...!ihnp4{!alberta}!sask!zaphod!flory Develcon Electronics Ltd. Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, CANADA -- Trevor K.
