Another film reference discovered on Day For Night - Stephen Dame - 03-26-2008

Got this from Andrew:

"I was watching an old movie called "The People That Time Forgot" (1977) and at the 35:30 spot, a character says a line that begins the lyrics to "Thugs." As the actress started the line, the song popped into my head and I wondered if she was going to say the whole thing, and she did. I found the movie at hulu.com/movies

The line of dialogue is: "well everyone has their breaking point, McBride. With me it's spiders, 'n with you, it's me."

cool find. i think it is hilarious that people flock to anything even remotely connected to the band.

like, why would you go rent a movie just to hear one line? just so you can shout "OMG!!!1111 THAT IS FROM THUGS!!!"
