I broke away from the “films about death” theme that I seemed to have going for the festival and caught The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T., which was just utterly insane and fabulous. It’s written and designed by Dr. Seuss, which was pretty much all I knew about it and really, it’s all you need to know too. It’s available on DVD. Go! Watch! Debate queer themes on the IMDb message boards! (Oh my.)
