Especially Human Centipede, @avclub-749a8e6c231831ef7756db230b4359c8:disqus .

Throw in a horny mystery writer Forensic Pathologist Lord of Hell and a hot but troubled Fed woman cop, @avclub-e5e75678d9346d88878b7c95b97eac68:disqus, and I think you got something!

I can maybe see Forever in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, @disqus_oEG8HZmcUH:disqus …? Chuck and Lethal Weapon, though, really don't fit.

You're better now though, right, @avclub-e5e75678d9346d88878b7c95b97eac68:disqus ?

The first two Godfather movies and Apocalypse Now respectfully disagree, @rabartlett:disqus .
