That title alone brings me to orgasm.
I like Tromeo more than Terror Firmer, but I hated the ended. Tromeo and Juliet was the best adaptation I'd ever seen of Romeo and Juliet up until the Mercutio character died. Then it went downhill.
I liked the original ending more.
I'd say Clerks is more independant, technical-wise, than Terror Firmer, given that Lloyd Kaufman's THIRTY some-odd years as the head of America's most prominant independant production company had to mean a decent budget for Terror Firmer.
According to the IMDb, the main chick in Terror Firmer was in Big Helium Dog.
