movie review - Happy Texas

Vancouver, 2001.11.08

This is a movie about three escaped convicts and their adventures in the small town of Happy, Texas. Two of them wind up masquerading as a gay couple in the small Texas town to do the kid's beauty pageant. It's a decent story, and it's got a great supporting cast. This flick stood up to a second viewing quite well. Strongly recommended.

I tell you, Satan's gonna have no trouble taking over here 'cause all the women are gonna say: 'What a cute butt.' 'He's Satan!' 'You don't know him like I do.' 'He's the Prince of Darkness!' 'I can change him.'
