The second film was "Guru, The Mad Monk" which we decided was an imperfect mixture of "Romeo and Juliet" and "Hunchback of Notre Dame" (the Disney version) set on a medieval Alcatraz and containing a character named Igor who we called "Quasitorgo" after his hunchbackness and his resemblance to Torgo from "Manos: Hands of Fate" (there was also a humorous instance of mishearing "orgy" as "Igorgy"). Guru and a vampire-witch kill people who have committed crimes and there's some nonsensical subplot about a guy's love being hidden in the church with Quasitorgo who likes her. Truly a masterpiece on man's inherent good and evil with lots of scenes of two people talking as a means of furthering plot.
