Did anyone notice?


Did anyone notice that the black and white movie playing at the video store is the camp classic "Strait Jacket"(1964)? It's the scene where Lucy Harbin (Joan Crawford) is whacking her husband and his girlfriend with an axe. The first time I saw "Serial Mom", I didn't notice because I wasn't a Joan Crawford fan back then. When I saw it for the second time in Brazil, I was thrilled to see "Strait Jacket" being a part of "Serial Mom"!
Any thoughts or comments?

I was wondering if that was a real movie or just something filmed to fit into that scene. Gotta check out that scene :P I remember when I was like 6, that scene kind of scared me :P

All movies in this film are real movies.

Off the top of my head:

Blood Feast - the gore movie Chip watches in his room
Straight-Jacket - horror movie in shop
Annie - of course, the movie mrs Jenson watches
Deadly Weapons - the movie Scottie masturbates to

I'm sure I've missed some tho.

Also the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was playing when that old bag that didn't rewind came in to rent Annie.

Did you also notice that the judge at the trial was called R.A Moorehouse

This is a direct reference to Ruth Ann Moorehouse, a member of the Charles Manson family
