Aro...I think Cohen apologist is right on the money. Around Halloween, I re-watched The Stuff, this and some damn thing called Special Effects (mainly for Eric Bogosian.) I've also seen the uberweird God Told Me To.<br /><br />Around the same time, I also took in the Cohen-written/Lustpig-helmed Maniac Cop series. You can probably guess which I found highly entertaining(of course, MC 3 was total ass save for Jack Earle Haley's belated RoboCop audition as the main bad guy.)<br /><br />That's right, Cohen made a lot of disposable cheese in his day. The only problem is the shit expired a long time ago. Moldy outdated cheese. Now I'm not saying I still won't search out Q: The Winged Serpent because that just sounds like too damn much fun. But from what I've seen Cohen is much more of a doltish hack than distinctive guys like Lustpig or Hennenlotter.<br /><br />I thought a lot of the action was shot jarringly bad in this one too. And you want to talk bad creature effects? The blatantly rubber master vampire's facial expressions while he's maiming the punks looked like those of a brain damaged baby. <br /><br />At least Nazi Hunter Van Mear ruled and the finale was decent but it took forever to get there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-3470856540711805432013-01-04T13:21:46.557-08:002013-01-04T13:21:46.557-08:00I love the Cohen/Moriarty team-ups (The Stuff is b...I love the Cohen/Moriarty team-ups (The Stuff is by far my favorite). I haven't seen their MOH episode since it aired, but I remember it being a hell of a good time.Greg Anderssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16929457081087015165noreply@blogger.com
