Oh hi,
This week on FilmSack, we grease up our crazy Ralph peddle bikes and get our heart rates up when we play a game of hide and creep with the unsuspecting teenage counselors fooling around down at Camp Crystal Lake on an overnighter of death and dismemberment for FRIDAY THE 13th. “You’re all doomed! This place is cursed. Cursed! It’s got a death curse” and “I’m the messenger of God! You’re doomed if you stay here!” Also, your creamed corn in the pantry is out of date… it’s bad… IT’S BAD! like a reverse Psycho from 1980 now taking revenge upon teenage impropriety on your favorite screaming service. Naked Bacon Neck Wound! Gurgle gurgle. Don’t worry… his career survives.
Anywho, I’m just out here painting various camp-related items in my painter pants and shirtless nipple-coverage only suspenders, as was the style at the time, thinking about our boss with the porn-stache, neckerchief, no shirt, cutoff shorty-shorts, pulling up stumps… and I’m thinking,
maybe I should have taken that job as a bag boy down at the Piggly Wiggly.
Randy, are all the girls up at camp gonna be as pretty as you? prettier you say?! daaaang.
