"...if Cabin Boy came out today, it would qualify as the one of the top five
comedies of the decade."

"Elliott now has produced a cult TV show, a cult movie and a cult novel."

That was a good article. I agreed with the author when he wrote,
"Elliott's effusively eccentric writing style reminds me of the
writing of MST3K writer/actor Michael J. Nelson. If you've ever read
any of Nelson's ironic movie reviews, you'll feel right at home
among Elliott's bizarre novel."

However, I disliked how the author started the article with, "Guys of a
certain age and temperament can't help but smile when they hear the
name Chris Elliott." Excuse me? How about *girls* of a certain age?
Keep your laws off my body!
