Finally out on DVD!


This: Aspiring stand-up comic Marty Malt (Judd Nelson) can get a laugh only out of his fellow trash man Gus (Bill Paxton), who accompanies Marty's deadly routines on the accordion. But things change for the duo when Marty suddenly grows a third arm out of the center of his back. They soon get an agent (Las Vegas royalty Wayne Newton), who books the act for a Hollywood TV appearance. Director Adam Rifkin wrote the warped cult comedy when he was just 19.

Netflix here has left off the brilliant trashiness of Lara Flynn Boyle in the role of Marty's sometime love interest. Picture a set flooded with trash, filth, and shadows--ala Naked Lunch.

Now if only I could get some dvd lovin of this persuasion:


Mmmmm. Helen Slater.

NIce! Never heard of this, ya geek. As for Legend of Billie Jean, the reason it's not out is because of licensing disputes. Is it Pat Benatar's fault or Christian Slater's? Probably neither and more like corporate disputes between DVD regions.

I blame Christian Slater. Just because.
