Title: Blonde Movie buffs Post by: happybhoy on July 21, 2006, 12:48:11 PM This has bugged me for well over a decade now, back in the day I watched a late movie on BBC2 called Cold Dog Soup, it had Randy Quaid and the 'Big Kahona Burger' dude from Pulp Fiction, who was also in Swimming With Sharks with Kevin Spacey.
The basic premise is that this guys' dates' dog dies and she won't go out with him unless he buries it first, so he dives into a taxi driven by Randy Quaid planning on going to Central Park to bury it but RQ insists that he can get good money for it. There follows an increasingly surreal journey to off-load the doggie corpse and get back to make his date. It wasn't a classic but it was off-the-beaten path and quite funny but the thing is I've never, ever met anyone (even fellow movie fans) who have heard of it, let alone actually seen it. I've tried ordering a copy from specialist movie finder websites but with no joy. I'm not even going to entertain the idea that someone might have a copy but, for the sake of my sanity, has anyone else ever seen this movie, I can't be the only one?

Title: Re: Blonde Movie buffs Post by: happybhoy on July 21, 2006, 09:40:54 PM Seriously I've hunted for this thing for years without even a sniff, I make 1 post and they're giving the damn things away in boxes of cornflakes. It's a (highly successful) global conspiracy to make me look like an eejit.
Bought, paid for and a very tiny itch finally scratched Thank you Title: Re: Blonde Movie buffs Post by: BrumBilly on July 23, 2006, 06:26:52 AM This post is a welcome reminder of why I'm glad to be back online having recently returned from a year in London.
