And yeah, those names were indeed a joke, though with a last name that rhymes with "penis" and is also the name of a waste company, the kids are pretty much doomed for first through fifth grade anyway.<BR/><BR/>Good calls on <I>The Fly</I> and <I>From Beyond</I>. I'll have to check out <I>Werewolf of London</I> (does he walk through the streets of Soho in the rain?).Andrew Bemishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097037829531087694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18377389.post-18847846895476157842008-04-23T05:30:00.000-04:002008-04-23T05:30:00.000-04:00Congrats!

They tell me being an only child's no fun anyway.<BR/><BR/>As far as transformation scenes... I've got to agree with you and Dan that American Werewolf and The Fly pretty much take the cake. I'm also quite partial to some of the squishier sequences in From Beyond.<BR/><BR/>There was also an old Universal movie called Werewolf of London. Not an especially brilliant film, but it does have a great tracking shot sequence where Henry Hull walks behind a set of roman-style columns, and turns more and more into an anthropomorphic wolf each time a column passes in front of the camera.Dr. Criddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05181732644649615771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18377389.post-58312259718261668692008-04-23T02:11:00.000-04:002008-04-23T02:11:00.000-04:00P.S. about that Chud list; I can understand being ...P.S. about that Chud list; I can understand being fustrated by Kubrick fiddiling with A Clockwork Orange's outcome even if they aren't really coherent about it,but are they even aware that Palinuck actually liked the film's ending.

And all due respect to the esteemed Ms. Leachman, but I would imagine Cloris would be a little difficult on a child sooner or later. Once her classmates learn about the reproductive system, you'll have every smartass boy strategically inserting "it" in her name for his own amusement. Remember, just because they can't find it doesn't mean they can't spell it.<BR/><BR/>And hey, thanks for the shout out. I sometimes worry that no one reads these things, especially when I don't get comments.

You do realize that naming your kid Mordecai will almost guarantee he ends up as a butcher or furniture salesman (Come on down to Morty's!!!)<BR/><BR/>As for transformations, there's the vast majority of David Cronenberg's career.
