I saw the Melvins touring with R.K.L. (Rich Kids on L.S.D.) back in '85 in Melbourne, Florida at the local V.F.W.
Buzz came out on stage and said, "We have come to destroy punk rock" and my life has never been the same.
Real "Neatorama-ish" unmentioned Melvins trivia is that Lori Black (aka Lorax), the Melvins bassist for most of their seminal work is the daughter of Shirley Temple Black, aka Shirley Temple. (Look it up.)

Agreed with Rob.
NBC has scrubbed YouTube pretty good, but it's still available on MySpace Videos:

Jordy makes a better bartender and Phil Hartman is his usual brilliant self as Worf.

As funny as it is, someone owes the Onion a quarter:

It sounds like you enjoyed it for what it was regardless. Otherwise, you wouldn't make such an endeavor to describe it.
The intent was a lot of the humor in a winking-at-the-audience/tongue and cheek sense.
It placed a lot of the peripheral humor of the Romero films and put it front and center- which is part of it's "love it" or "hate it" following.
It also skewered mid-eighties punk and new wave culture and resulted in a decent soundtrack.
The eighties were host to a lot of near-sadistic schlock horror/humor films which fostered a lot of the horror culture we enjoy today.
Most likely you've seen the Re-Animator, but I'd recommend the "near-sequel" From Beyond. I'm certain you'd great it with a similar and passionate disdain.

I really thought the first "Volume" was great, but it was obvious and admitted by Kirkman himself, that no one thought it would sell or even work.
The initial volume does an excellent job, but the subsequent volumes seem a tad forced.
