Wow. This must be some movie if you're posting an announcement of it
on hobbies.suicide.
All this crossposting depresses me so much I think I'll kill myself.

title: COMMENTARY: WILL ELVIS BE `KING' FOR ETERNITY?
author: MARK SILK

...
The look and the voice: Through the magic of recorded image and
sound, Elvis is available as a constant companion. In ``Elvis After
Life,'' Raymond Moody tells of a couple who created a computer
program to simulate communication with the dead entertainer.
``Sometimes I am convinced that the spirit of Elvis Presley has
taken over our computer,'' says the wife.

> Just what is this movie about, you ask?
Yeah, what indeed! Who are these people? I don't see Superman or Batman
or that avitar of Slack, Spiderman in his list. All I see is a bunch of
bonified False Prophets (well, maybe not Dan O'Neill; he's pretty
Bulldada) and some droning Mediocretin expounding on the "vitality"
of the "genre".

Remember, you can't spell "contemporary" without a "con".

Now I can die happy.

Indeed.

I only wish.
