Fancy Movie Time #39: Disco Pigs (2001)

On this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the Fancy Lads head to the Cork disco to sing some Kinks for the IRA as they cover Kirsten Sheridan's 2001 oink-fest: Disco Pigs. Does a young Cillian Murphy and a deeply idiosyncratic script make the movie a Fancy Feast? Or does opening up Enda Walsh's play lead to a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for sure: Solomon Grundy was DEFINITELY born on a Monday.

Next Episode: Secret Honor (1984)

Sex on the beach never made sense to me either until I dated someone from a landlocked state (New Mexico, actually) who hadn't actually been to a coastal beach until she was almost 30. It's a little bit what Brian said, too. Since y'all asked, it's fun for about a minute. Then you start noticing the sand.

My understanding is that Solomon Grundy is an unkillable zombie who just wants to be left alone for eternity but he keeps being taken advantage of by smarter villains who use him for his physical strength.

Elsewhere in NYC, a man wakes up. He screams "IT'S THE PIG," and he does not know why.
