Review of Highlander (1986) by Andrew B — 27 Mar 2011
According to legend, the screenplay for cult favorite Highlander appeared when a basement-dwelling metalhead kicked over his bong in a futile attempt to stand after consuming two âshare sizeâ? bags of Combos and a tube of raw cookie dough.
The bong water within, which was ancient and, indeed, nearly solid, spewed forth across the shag carpeting, musty since times of old. The mystic fluid soaked all in its path, including a half-completed âSociety for Creative Anachronismâ? application, one WWF comic book, a cassette containing Queenâ(TM)s greatest hits, and two or three Dragonlance novels.
From the resultant mist, which did reek mightily of Mountain Dew, the film was born. And yea, the world spoke as one: âWe wonâ(TM)t see this in theaters but we might check it out on VHS later, maybe.
