Diggstown is AWESOME. Flat out. You get Bruce Dern, young and not an asshole James Woods and Gossett is great in it. SO highly recommended. 

I grok what you’re laying down 

A batshit Irish gang that enjoyed chopping folks up, in the 1970's....this needs to be a TV series

Warren Oates comes to mind as well. My favorite actors have always been character actors

Or gay, hellooooooooooo

You SOB...I never thought of him as Corman until just now. But man, is he dead on...

“slack” - are you a card carrying member of the Church of the Sub-Genius by any chance...?

“Well I don’t mean to kiss and tell, but I’ve been seen with Farrah...”

Buzz off yourself!

I was going to say, Ed Sanders who wrote “The Family” or whatever about knowing the Manson family??

Yes you have

I’m not

Why are you repeating what I say?

What?

“Well I don’t like your mother” 

As an old, she’s this generations “Heather” (aka Heather Thomas, Heather Locklear) - that blond sort of  look you’re describing so well.

You beat me to it, although at the time it was released it was drubbed by critics and failed badly at the box office. Personally though, I love the film and think it’s a lot better than people gave it credit for.
