I thought that "This World, Then the Fireworks" was a good
adaptation of the Thompson story (in the first Black Lizard
anthology) -- though the ending is changed in an obvious and
expected way. The film feels pulpy, b-filmish, over the top.
Good fun. Much better, I think, than "The Killer Inside Me"
with Stacey Keach.
Doug (and there are now four Dougs with the new Doug, who
incidentally represents the first visible MD in a while--no
doubt ready to provide expert info on medical mayhem; a few
years back, we had another doc who had a spectacular meltdown
on the list and left)
