Burns Film Center Retrospect, August 2004 |
"I
think they're silly in a way that's absolutely undemanding, and they're
kind of harmless too. And I think that's part of their appeal. They're
not mean and violent. There are so many sorts of things now that are
foolish and destructive. And they really have a weird sort of sweetness,
I think." - Janet Maslin, on Troma movies, from CNN's Newsstand
program, October 5, 1998
