wow, can't go wrong with House of Frightenstein, it's a true Canadian classic. and i'm having a blast reliving it via space. now all i want space to do is Bring back Tremors the series and i'll be happy since theres not much hope of it coming to DVD :(

It seems most good things in Canada come from Hamilton - Frightenstein (yes!) Harrigan (yes!!), Tim Horton's (yes!!!), Nash the Slash (I think), and Sheila Copps' dad (who was a good mayor after all).
