I don't know. Two words keep me from ever being excited about monkeys in a horror film: Monkey Shines

See, I was actually hoping that this was the official sequal to Monkey Shines. Helper Monkey + Scalpel = Awesome.

Worked wonders for the chimp in Argento's Phenomena (AKA Creepers)!

I love Monkey Shines, dammit. Maybe it's because it fulfilled my lifelong goal of seeing a paraplegic bite the shit out of a monkey.

Odd. My life long goal is a threesome with Diora Baird and Salma Hayek, but to each his own.

I was a strange child.

But seriously, I always thought Monkey Shines was better than most gave it credit for. It tapped into some primal fears of mine, I guess. I hate having to be taken care of when I'm sick, and in the film when he gets turned on by the creature that was helping him live somewhat of a normal life- it's terrifying.

The reasoning behind the monkey flipping out was a little silly, though. But it's not nearly the worst movie that Romero's made (that title still belongs to Bruiser).

Ya know, in a perfect world, we'd be able to merge homicidal monkeys and threesomes involving Diora Baird and Salma Hayek into one beautiful fantasy. I'm just saying.

I was hoping against all hope that this thread would be regarding the bitchin' Skid Row tune, dudes.
But alas, it's just another monkeymovie.

Bullshit!
Slave to the Grind is a much better album than the self titled.

for the record, skid row has a greatest hits album so I wouldn't say they peaked with their second song. Quicksand Jesus is my favorite song by them.
