Subject: Re: creamed corn

Hey, I won't have my Twin Peaks being compared to Children of the Corn,
or the Village of the Damned (not the remake anyway, when oh when did
John Carpenter forget how to make a good movie? Now the original British
version, that's another matter....)

Personally I love it all, yes the girls look good, as does the scenery
but I'm sure I speak for most people on the list when I say that it's
the plot and all the Lynchism's that keep people interested in the series.
