The Shrine

A few years ago while friends and I were nutty on mushrooms, we watched this movie which I hadn't seen since childhood. In one scene where Connoley draws an arrow on a stone and follows said arrow's direction, a little eh... goblin fairy pops out from underneath, flipping the stone over and says (among some other nonsense) "Your mother's a faggot..." followed by a word we couldn't place.

Having recently bought the DVD to confirm that it was not just the mushrooms and the collective hallucination, I have done just that. If you own the DVD, skip to about 0'24"30 and you'll hear it. The last word sounds kind of like Autobot, but maybe that's just because my roomate and I have been on about the Transformers movie lately.

I haven't noticed it, but that movie is fucked up. It's one of those movies that you can watch with almost anyone and they'll enjoy it.

That would be a fun movie to watch fucked up, especially on shroomies, from what I hear. Probably good when just plain ol' high too - I might have to try that sometime.

(Yeah, I'm still an egregious stoner these days. But I'm having a lot of fun with it. )

Speaking of children movies, anybody seen Mirror Mask? It's a rather neat movie and I always enjoy Jim Henson Co's work.

Mirror Mask had incredible art direction. The way everything was designed and how they moved had just the right amount of creepiness. It probabaly would have been one of my favorite movies if I saw it a decade ago.
