Went back to see the film again tonight and was quite surprised to see that the theatre was 80% full. This was quite remarkable for a Tuesday night, though the $2.00 admission was certainly a factor.
Aside from one older guy who walked out during the Angelique/Barnabas sex scene, the audience seemed to really enjoy the movie. Jokes that went out over dead air at other screenings were quite well received. I was glad that I was familiar with the movie already because the laughter drowned out some of the dialogue.
There is definitely an audience for this movie. It just took them a while to find it. There was an equally large crowd waiting for the second showing.
A couple of random observations......During the final scene, Vicki reminded me of Wednesday Addams.....Does Angelique have a heart of glass? Cue the Blondie music!
