With a dash of homoerotic commentary spiking the evening, a number of us went out to see Darkness Falls.

Now, we knew what we were getting into, or at least, we thought so. It's a PG-13 horror flick about the Tooth Fairy.

We thought it might be funny. Or maybe even slightly good. What better setup for a so-bad-it's-funny horror movie than that?

But it wasn't. It was terrible, but not in a campy way, and there really wasn't any way to make fun of it. All I could do was sit there in the theater and watch the crap on the screen while struggling not to stand up and throw myself over the edge of the stadium seating. The filmmakers saved on special effects (and hiring a cinematographer) by adding camera shake that was worse than The Blair Witch Project whenever anything was happening on the screen.

Hell, Blair Witch was much better, and cost 1/115th the money to make.

I sat there laughing for about five minutes after TheGayestStraightGuy made a comment during the previews about how "the only funny-bone Adam Sandler has in his body is when I'm fucking him in the ass."

The only scary thing about Darkness Falls is the idea that a movie like that is considered releasable.

Oh yeah. Here's another sketch:
