So, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 is, uh, not quite the cinematic tour de force that you might expect.
On the other hand, it does have Dennis Hopper running around with a chainsaw screaming "AH'M A-GONNA SEND 'EM BACK T'HELL!" and the film begins with Leatherface killing two 80's frat boys to the accompaniment of Oingo Boingo's "No One Lives Forever," so it wasn't a total loss. Oh Tobe Hooper, it's amazing how far you fall once you actually get a studio budget to work with. Times like this and with Star Wars when I think films might be so much better if they didn't have so much money to work with. It'd force them to think of new and innovative ways of storytelling.
League auditons are tomorrow for real, and I still haven't settled on a monologue. It'd be kinda good to figure that out. And Dad hasn't called today. Oh boy, now comes to fun part. How long will the estrangement last this time before one of us chickens out? He almost certainly will back out of his agreement to pay for my fitness club membership and personal trainer, the first session of which I had today. I feel tired but kinda ok. Plus, one of the trainers I haven't met yet is a really attractive college graduate drama major, and if that's not incentive to come back, I don't know what is. Oh Heffie, you old hornball.
