    Or could a rubber tombstone have been the way to go? A real actor, and a fake tombstone would have worked better, surely.
    Having a real editor on this film would have really worked wonders.

    Lingering on the Johnny dummy is just one of numerous editing blunders in the film -- another of which is the obvious Uncle Reg dummy that Barbara hits one too many times with the poker.

    Poor editing is the single most important reason why the remake could never, ever touch the original which utilized primitive, yet far more effective special effects.

    Happens all the time. I'll drop a quote from one my favorite flicks and people give me the puzzled puppy dog head tilt look.

    "We got this by the ass!" usually gets a funny response. "By the....ass?"

    Oh there are plenty in the series that would get looks like that. We could start a thread on them alone.


    "Mouth full of Greek salad"
    "they're coming to get you barbara"
    "biggest piece of meat in the cave"
    "I'm running this monkey farm now frankenstein!"
    "We're trying to make it to the island", "what island", "any island".

    to name a few

    Ones I use all the time and no one knows why...

    "Dummies... dummies... dummies..." (You gotta do the voice, and you gotta hold your hand up and your head down)
    "Is that food enough for you?" (preferably yelling and spitting for no apparent reason)
    "I'm dealing with it man. I'm dealing with it." (with a wild look in the eyes)
    "We whipped em. We whippped em good."
    "Scary. Isn't it?"
    "You ain't just down here by yourself."
    "It's gonna start to stink in here. We gotta clean it up."

    "When there's no more room in ______ the ______ will walk the ______." Insert whatever.... when there's no more room in the restaurant, the patrons will walk the sidewalk. When there's no more room in the dentist's office, the customers will walk the waiting room. It helps to say it real solemnly.

    I need to start using "we got this by the ass". I don't know why I haven't yet.
    Just look at my face. You can tell I post at HPOTD.

    Oh, Lord no Coop. That is my favorite moment in the film, especially how he says it.

    It always cracks me up, and I don't even know why.

    "Aint it a crime?"
    Innocent victims of merciless crimes, fall prey to some madman's impulsive designs.

    Step after step we try controlling our fate. When we finally start living, it's become too late.

    I mostly just like walking around and yelling at random people "Wake up Sucka!!"

    The phrase "bunch of yo yo's" always cracks me up, it just seems like the lamest thing you could possibly say. Is it even a insult?
