I always hated when people introduced me by way of my (famous in allergy doctor circles) dad. “Oh, this is Dr. Busse’s son.” As if I didn’t have my own personality.

But, here I go anyway: Dee Snider! The massive-haired Twisted Sister? Well . . his son is a sick mo-fo, in the most glorious, wonderful, Quentin Tarratino way. His short film is wonderful. I haven’t laughed this much since Anchorman. (There is a trailer for Fool’s Day.)
