Ah yes, I loved watching Big Train. They had some greatly imaginative
ideas like "the artist formerly known as prince" stalking a herd of
jockeys and killing one like a lion hunting antelope. The jockey's legs
even thrashed while prince was suffocating it - now that's the sort of
detail that makes a dark comedy. ;)
However you can't go past The League of Gentlemen for dark shock factor
and pure zaniness. Fantastic stuff. That eccentric, murderous couple who
didn't like out-of-towners and kept asking "are you looocal?" made me
crack up in Robert Rist's lectures sometimes because he had a thing for
"locals" too, and sometimes said similar things.
