1/13: Pardon me, is it literally the edge of sanity or the edge of insanity for Anthony Perkins?

Whichever the choice is, it's clear that Anthony Perkins had lost his mind when he decided to do this film. It's also abundantly clear that he wasn't thinking when he's trying too hard to mimic Alice Cooper. The drain of his mentality can be safely attributed to complications of AIDS that eventually did him in a few years afterwards.

Back to Edge of Sanity, it displays a repetitive pattern that's akin to a broken record, and I keep seeing the same cycle over and over like fifteen times. Finally, the anachronism-filled show ends without any originality. I guess what it's all about is a one bad cocaine trip after another. Maybe lay off the drugs, eh Tony? Meanwhile, it's impossible for these prostitutes to be this good-looking.

All in all, trying to complete Edge of Sanity had been a struggle for me over the course of several days, but I got eight solid hours of sleep each night.
