pretty good flick....

Trivial question: who was the country singer-turned actor that got that lawn-mower blade headache at the end?

Amazing film. And Billy Bob wrote it too didn't he?

[mrlessk]

Doyle: "Was you in the nut house for hackin' somebody up with a hatchet?"

Karl: "I never used no hatchet that I remember. Mmm."

Doyle: "So you're just crazy in a retard kind of way, huh? Wouldn't matter to me if you did do violence on someone. I ain't scared of shit. You're just a humped-over retard, seems to me. I'm just kiddin'. Welcome to our humble home, Buddy."

FYI: It's on my (Oregon) Comcast Cable tonight (Encore) 1:35 a.m. (Thur)

Once you meet Doyle :crazy: , the Dwight Yoakam character, any idiot can figure out how it's going to end....lol

Billy Bob wrote and directed it.

He did a good job in Uturn too which was otherwise a pretty lousy film.

you gotta love Billy Bob's "i reckon i like them french fry taters mmhmm"

"i seen that door cracked open a 'lil bit, i figured yous in there foolin around, mmhmm" i love that movie, i think ive seen it 40 times, i have it on dvd, i actually made sound clips for my comp, and also for a game. but mustard and biscuits couldnt possibly taste good. :D also john ritter was the gay friend of the kids mom.

Yep, he played Vaughan....

Vaughan Cunningham: "I'm just going to say it. I'm gay. Does that surprise you that I'm gay? You know what gay is, don't you?"

Karl:"I don't reckon. Kinda funny I guess."

Karl: "Not funny 'ha-ha', funny queer."

Vaughan Cunningham: "Well that's a very offensive way to put it. You shouldn't say that. You were taught that, weren't you?"

Karl: "I've heard it said that a-way."

[Gripper]

I think another good bit of the film is when Karl confronts his father,my respect for the guy went through the roof.As others have said you can easily see which way the film will end but you can't stop watching any how,I reacon mmmhmm,I've found myself doing that throat clearing thing,its driving my wife nuts,mmmhhmm :lol:
