Review: The first scene in this movie is a boat. A ferry to be exact. It's delivering the main characters to the island. It's a glorious start to this movie. So glorious it made me reminisce about a memory long forgotten...
I was about 5 years old. It was 1981 and summer was in full effect. My family and I were at the local McDonald's enjoying a nice healthy meal. Living the American dream. We were outside on the McDonald's playground just after finishing our meal and I was having the time of my life. In my cholesterol fueled euphoria I decided I would stuff my melon in between the bars of the psychotic giant purple grimace. This medieval device was designed to have children stand inside of it and shake the living shit out of themselves. So here I am, skull jammed between Grimace's ass-bars, and this fat mongoloid jumps in and begins to send tremors through Grimace's bars so great that I think I may shit myself from the severe head trauma I am experiencing. I'm not really sure what happened after that, but it couldn't have been good. It's been bottled up until now.
