   Okay, I'll admit I've been dragging my feet about watching CT downloads.   
   Partly because I didn't know they HAD downloads (and I didn't want to   
   order homemade disks--The old-school anime fans will understand), and   
   partly because...yes, I'm *still* that traumatized from the Film Crew.   
   (Yes, I know the CT crew are the Funny Ones Who Still Actually Own   
   Rights to the Original and Aren't That Desperate For a One-Hit-Wonder   
   Buck, but old fears die hard.)   
      
   Meanwhile, while searching Hulu.com for some streaming-rerun goodness to   
   download late at night, I happened across a half-dozen old sampled 80's   
   episodes of "Elvira's Movie Macabre"....And while she's not   
   *overwhelmingly* funny (except for  the standard scene-specific   
   sarcastic host-seg digs at the movie), it's not Boobarella from "The   
   Simpsons", either.   
   More to the point, two of the listed episodes included host-hecklings of   
   "Legacy of Blood" and "The Doomsday Machine".  Think CT's movie   
   acquisition department shops at the same PD store.   
   (And as to the movies themselves:  Yes.  The mind can say nothing but Oh   
   Dear Gods.  Had "Legacy of Blood" aired during the Joel era, "Manos"   
   would have had competition for Inexplicable status.  0_0'' )   
      
   ...So, if I had to get my feet wet on either of those two Cinematic   
   Titanic experiments for pay-download, would either of the two be worth   
   the choice?   
   Or is there another episode ideal for first timers?   
   (And no, I'm not watching their "Santa/Martians" do-over, seeing as   
   there was nothing wrong with the first one.)
