That Bag Lady Was Funny!!!


I just got done watching this for the first time after ordering this from Amazon!!! I could not help but laugh at some parts!!!!

This "Piggy, Piggy!" line comes out of nowhere from Jeff Kober who plays Patrick, it is so random!!! And Jeff/ Patrick-or his stunt double jumps from that building and runs off!!!!!

And the fact that Lou/Logan was seeing Kober/Channing in different people was sort of freaky!!!!! Like him talking to that priest, and the preist is suddenly replaced with Jeff/Patrcik, going "How's the stomach buddy boy!!"

Another funny part was how Jeff/Patrick looked sitting in the gas chamber!! No fear, no worries about being gassed....and him blowing a kiss!!!!!

And the hyper bag-lady trying to strangle Phillips/Lou in the car!! And "give me a kiss Logan!!", and "OOOHHHHH, A BIG TRUCK!!"

And that "Hi Cutie" was stupid and funny!!! It came out of nowhere!! Like she was trying to scare us!! But it was more stupid than scary!

And the nutty nun with that gun going "I'm afraid she's not here", and "You would not hurt a nun, would YOU!"

This was more of an action--chase movie which I enjoyed!!!!

And that fan thing- what's up with that!!



What are the purposes of signatures!!..

Stop yelling. There are other ways to begin a sentence instead of "and." Form a cogent point in lieu of regurgitating scenes and dialog -- we've all seen it. QC complete.

Sounds like a plan, but only if you agree to go back to watching your "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" episodes rather than inserting your nose into other people's *beep* and sniffing their business; after all, I was talking to him, not you, but you felt compelled to intervene just as I did.

And you can take awerth with you to keep ya company. =)

Funny post man.

I watched the movie in the early (early) 90s and thought it was scary as funk.

I just finished watching it after 10 years or so. Your points were exactly what I was thinking.

The movie is awesome (spooked my gf), it's just unintentionally funny and has bad "stunt man editing out" skills.

And that fan thing- what's up with that!!


yeah. I tell ya, I still feel somebody owes me $8.50 over that. I saw that fan stunt in the trailer when this was in the theaters and said to myself "neat" and then was brainwashed into plunking down $8.50 to see it opening night. (manhattan 1990 yes movies were $8.50 then.)

Yes! I was also scared when I watched it back in the 90's. My sister and I used to brace ourselves for certain scenes.

Now it's hilarious!!

Bag lady was hilarious and the nun looked hot when Patrick had control over her.

Yes! I still can't believe I was afraid of this film. It's a comedy now!

Bag lady actually kissed Logan in the car, that was one funny moment :)

Although there are a few funny parts in this movie, it is not meant to be a comedy. That's the writers way of adding some humor to a serious story. It is about Satan, so they gave him a sense of humor, I love this movie. "Give us a kiss, c'mon pucker up" I just watched this again the other day, and I've been LMAO every time I think of that part. And what's up with the fan blade is, remember we're talking about Satan here and he pretty much can do what he wants. A stunt man jumped off the roof with a bungy cord, saw behind the scenes. Loved his mask, again ...he carved a pentagram into their chests. I lived with Satanic worshipers for months, and they're all too real!! But I guess it's what you believe.
