A broader farce about horror movies, for instance. <br /><br />But yeah...probably better left unmade.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-26597087985840940642020-02-20T21:26:37.497-06:002020-02-20T21:26:37.497-06:00Young Frankenstein is sooooo good.

Better that he didn't make it at all, probably.Ipecachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15157560182505626755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-83151222448061197722020-02-17T12:26:30.448-06:002020-02-17T12:26:30.448-06:00That's exactly where I am with this.
