You only wish you got such invitations

I got the following e-mail titled "The Greatest Story Ever Told" from Doug today. It concerns an upcoming movie night. I'm so excited!!
You FOOL! Did you think I was talking about a Bible movie? Or an actual work of greatness? Then you have fallen victim to a Psychlo mind-trick, stupid man-animal! I mean the Greatest SCIENTOLOGIST Story Ever Told:
Battlefield: Earth! (bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!)
So those of you who don't appreciate the greatness of the truly awful might want to delete this and move on to your next e-mail, but the rest of you are invited for a showing of a movie that fought hard against such garbage as Supernova, Dungeons and Dragons, and Dude, Where's My Car? to triumph as the worst movie of 2000. (If you don't believe me, check out the reviews)
To quote just one encouraging review: "Every so often a movie comes along that is so overwrought, overacted and overwhelmingly inept that it must be seen to be believed." And seen it will be, in the comfort of our living room!
Not only that, our screening will be projector-enabled (at least, that's the plan)! And on DVD (if we can rent it, what with all the popular demand), which contains many special and hidden features.
[...details omitted...]
(You may want to BYOB as well - I think a LOT of alcohol will be required to enjoy this to the fullest.)
Prepare to go PSYCHLO!,
Doug, Hermann, Beeman and Mike (and the ghost of
L. Ron Hubbard)
P.S. I know that others have proposed Texácos (the tacos served by Texaco in SE on Grand/MLK) as an appropriate food-stuff for this film. I suspect, however, that my stomach will be sufficiently challenged by the "special effects" and bad makeup and bad dialogue. However, if somebody else wants to coordinate the Texácos order, have at it.
P.P.S. I swear I'll start showing decent movies soon. Maybe.
