Meanwhile, back at the movies...

Finally got to see Shriek 2 today. Wasn't sure if the Shrieking was due to the movie or the toddlers in the audience, or the sight of the ticket price. Basic plot line: Shriek and Princess Fiona tackle the horror movie industry in a scathing parody of every horror ever told in a fairy tale. I admit I really loved Pass-out-in-Boots. A great cautionary tale on the dangers of catnip, that one. Of course, Eddie Murphy was his usual assinine self. Spoiler warning: the scene where Princess Fiona turns out to be a deadly FemBot was worth the price of admission, though it was probably just as well that there were been a couple of large ear-wax candles rendered in strategic locations on set.
