A couple more reviews

We watched a couple more of the £1 ex-rental films:

Bubba Ho-Tep This is what independent films should all be like. Elvis is alive and well and in a nursing home in Texas. Enter an Egyptian mummy intent on eating peoples souls. Elvis (with his buddy JFK) have to save the day. Odd, clever and quirky, this is one of the best films I've seen in ages. Grand Theft Parsons I've been a fan of Gram Parson's music for a number of years so I obviously wanted to watch this film. It presents a version of the events following his death with the stealing of his coffin and eventual burning in the desert. Disappointingly not many of his songs feature in the film. Interesting, humorous, worth watching.
