Ooooh.

TCM was playing The 5000 fingers of Dr. T. Made in 1953, this movie is all that and a bag of chips. It's in the family of films like Dr Strangelove and Charlie and the Chocolate factory. It's surrealist with some nice biting commentary towards the conformity of the 50's and everyone's fear of the Atom Bomb. I can't imagine anyone on my friend's list who wouldn't like this film. If you've not seen it, do so. :) I'm going to make myself a Happy Fingers hat to wear on SecondLife.

Ohhhh yes, Dr. T. The ending was a little disappointing, as I recall, but it was otherwise wonderful.

"Say, where'd you learn to put the whammy on someone like that!?"

That was the best line ever.
