The more things change, eh?
I guess so. I never heard of that movie until bones mentioned it earlier in here. Wonder what the reaction would be if they made an updated version of something like that? I'm rather surprised this movie was even tolerated.
It stirred up a bit of controversy back in the late 70's - no more or less than a lot of pop culture events that seem like they have the power to push Western 'Civilization' over the brink, only to be over as suddenly as they start, proving once again that there is life after high school.
