The best place to hid something is in plain sight. That is why the workers at Uneeda Medical Supplies placed a hidden message in an eye chart in their boss’s office. It reads: “Burt is a Slave Driver and a Cheap SOAB who is going bald too HAHAH.” They “hid” it in an eye chart as a subtle nod to two facts. Namely, that Burt has poor vision and won’t “see” the message, and movie nerds have excellent vision and will comb over every frame of a movie to pull out even the most obscure details.
This is one of my favorite movies. I keep trying to get my family to watch it with me and they all roll their eyes. I remember well watching this in the theater. I went to a Saturday matinee super hungover. I started laughing when Freddie started clubbing the split dog with a broom and didn’t stop until after the credits. Amazing soundtrack as well. I think that eye chart thing was pointed out in the “The Making of ROTLD”.

This is one of my favorite horror movies from the 80’s, too.
