Botox Beach Bereavement Club?

Ugh. Quite disappointed with movie last night: Boynton Beach Bereavement Club... Amusing premise, lots of well-known actors who were highly successful, esp. in comedy, 10-40 years ago. Actually more disturbed and distracted than disappointed. Sally Kellerman's and Dyan Cannon's faces are just too bizarre - not quite Michael Jacksonesque, but almost. And then there's Dyan Cannon's body and frenetic, jerky movements... I kept waiting for the movie to turn into an alien invasion plot that would finally show us the creatures living inside those artificial ALMOST lifelike human bodies.... now that I think of it, _Cocoon_ did have alien invaders and much older-than-usual actors. And that was a really good movie. Jessica Tandy didn't look like a failed skin rejuvenation experiment!
