Moriarity, you missed out on some great food by not going to El Arroyo's on 5th Street. Any place that offers a beer as part of the combination plate is awesome. Of course you drink Rolling Rock, ugh. Shiner Bock is the only way to go! Wish I could have made it down there for the festival, I have Pretty Maids on VHS, it was a budget movie release, don't know if it is still in print or not for those interested.

But when it comes to exploitation on the big screen... there is only one in this known world. The INCREDIBLY STRANGE FILM FESTIVAL... 6yrs old and still kicking more ass than any other festival. Seriously folks, the shit that plays on 35mm on a HUGE screen is unbelievable... its like going back in time to the 70's. The trailers are better :SUPERDUDE, THEY CALL HER ONE EYE... the features are more eye popping THE LOVE BUTCHER, BLACK MAGIC 2 etc Now if only QT would come down (all expenses paid of course) and host it! Unreal.... Hairy Reems...

Umm...does anybody really care about this? Perhaps you noticed by the lack of talk back regarding your column, Moriarty, that nobody gives a shit about the Quentin Tarantino Festival. Who gives a rat's ass about the bad exploitation flicks that QT deems "hip" enough to be in his festival? It's rather pathetic that you're all clamoring for the chance to brown nose Tarantino. I'm used to your boring and long-winded articles--but at least write them on a deserving subject.

Who give's fuck about Harry's fat ass?!?! His job is to spill the news, not share his dumb ass life with us! While we're on the subject of dumb ass lives! I hope your wife miscarries. Yeah, that would make my day! Shut the Hell up, you fuck!

QT3 has to be the best one yet! I am a HUGE fan of Richard Lester's "Musketeer" films, and have a soft spot for Roger Vadim's "Pretty Maids All in a Row." Rock Hudson is great in a change of pace role. Angie Dickinson lends great ahem, support (for the ultimate Angie movie though, see De Palma's "Dressed to Kill"), John David Carson (whatever happened to him?) gives a cool performance, and for support, check this out: the late great Roddy McDowall, Telly Savalas, Keenan Wynn, and James Doohan. Add an offbeat (and unusual) script by Gene Roddenberry, and you have yourself a neat (but very underrated) comedy/thriller.

If you're so uninterested in this stuff, why the hell have you taken the time to read the article and THEN go on to comment on it - pretending you have some sort of valuable input... Build a bridge guys, and get over yourselves! QT has (to me) obviously always been into the exploitation flicks, and it has (again, obviously, to me) served him well in his film MAKING career. The day you do any better, feel free to sling shit on the guy. Lock, Stock... was a GREAT film and I can't believe you guys are only just getting the chance to see it. I highly recommend it - *BUT* don't go in there ready to compare it to QT. Preconceptions will simply spoil it for you. Besides which, if you've watched much else of what the Poms (that's the British, ok?) have on offer (I'd say chances are, you haven't) then you just might be able to begin to understand why this film stands out. Anyway, I digress. My only other point is that I happenned to enjoy Moriarty's commentary, because it's always that personal take on a subject - how he was affected by the experience - which makes for an interesting read. If you don't get what I mean, read some Hunter S Thomson.
Any eating not done in Austin will be covered by Harry.
