Jean "PoolMan" Poulet is 23 years old, and the first representative of the Great White North for the MRFH (though thanks to Toni, loses his "Only Canuck" status). This Canadian correspondant has completed Electronic Engineering at the BC Institute of Technology, and currently works as an inside tech salesman, customer support person, warehouse manager, official first aid attendant, and general rabble-rouser for a company mysteriously unnamed (but not affiliated with any Bond villain... rats!) His current aspiration is a black belt in SKF kickboxing (not such a long way from his current blue belt), in which he is now an official assistant instructor, with an army of yellow belts at his command. He also dabbles in movie reviews under the impression that he is good at them (silly wabbit). PoolMan is a fan of all comedies, both sick and mainstream, but also has a love for dramas and martial arts movies, plus many others. His fave flicks include Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail, Aliens, Bloodsport, the Indiana Jones series, and the Star Wars series. Look for him in Ernest Goes To School as a band member and substitute football player, #73. (No kidding, but do so at your own risk, eh?) Future career aspirations? Assassin who visits high school reunions.

Edouard "Ted" Benoit, 15, was born in New York City, and moved up to Massachusetts. He's loved movies for as long as he could remember. Earliest cult movies seen include Ed Wood's movies and "True Stories". My favorite directors are John Landis, Sam Raimi, Quentin Tarantino, and Masamune Shirow. Favorite movies include: Near Dark, Re-Animator, SiD aNd NaNCy, and Monty Python and The Holy Grail. He claims to have loved the MRFH from its inception, but Ted is a known compulsive liar who will do anything to become President (just kidding, Ted!) Ted is desperate for e-mail. Send him some stupid questions. Brighten his day.

Toni "toni" LaRue, aged 20, is the second representative of Canada. She is a third year student at the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta and divides her time between 4 eerily similar Sociology classes and Psych 'Spell Freud and You Get an A' 201. Other than that, she spends her time buying pointy silver jewelry, complaining about the weather and gazing lovingly at her sleek new VCR. She dreams of being a frighteningly wise film buff someday and has preferred 'different' movies since childhood, where she feared the gremlins, giggled at the gelflings, and was entirely convinced that the strawberries of the world were after her with nasty, big, pointy teeth (recurring nightmare, anyone?). When asked to list her favorite movies, Toni is likely to mutter and look put upon for a long while before saying "anything with scads of blood......or musical numbers."

Andree "Andie" Thibideau is finally 18 years old, so now she's legal, which is good (note: Andie actually wrote all this... why, we do not know). She's now a freshman at Truman State University in Kirksville, MO. She really likes it here, even if Missouri is known for inbreeding. Andie brought so many movies with her to college that she is sort of the Blockbuster of her floor. She divides her time between being a Psychology major, watching a lot of movies, and making additions to my list of guys she's kissed (second note: this does not include any of the staff of MRFH to date). Her favorite movies are Top Gun, Clue, Jaws, Shag, Tombstone, A Few Good Men, Empire Records, and Scream. She doen't watch a lot of TV, but sets aside time each week to watch Friends, ER, and Ally McBeal. Andie likes: chocolate & peanut butter, guys who make me laugh, Scooby Doo, being kissed on my neck, football and basketball, and of course a good movies. Andie dislikes: tomatoes, pretty-boys, Pokémon, too much tongue, soccer and most girls' sports, and movies that are so bad they can't even be good.

Jacques-Yves "Kyle" deCouteau, 21, is not particularly handsome or interesting in anyway. As an expert social engineer, he relies on well-crafted films to provide a map of modern pop culture he can reference to in everyday conversation. Kyle loves comedies for laughs, action and horror flicks for vicarious thrills and chills, and romantic films (i.e. “chick” movies) for methods of getting girls to talk to him. He has already earned more free video rentals than some earn in a lifetime. Born in Colorado, he currently lives in the sunny paradise that is Southern California, dispensing film critiques and thoughts to any of his fellow college students that will listen. Kyle’s favorite films are those which provoke discussion and provide real-world insight into any situation; these films include PCU, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Fletch, and Suspiria. He recently realized he has five female friends for every one male friend. Kyle is a Gemini.

Jean-Luc "Sean" Gretzkie is 21 years old, and attends California State Polytechnic University in Pomona, where the big pointy building there seems to attract a lot of camera crews. No, seriously. He even had a shot at being an extra on one of them, but it didn't work out. Don't worry, he's got his collection of 30 DVDs (and growing) to console himself, carrying such titles as Clerks and Mallrats (of course!) to Run Lola Run to the Matrix and others. Oh yes, he also goes to classes, and he works as a lab technician on-campus. Did I mention he works for a Rocky Horror cast? Yeah, he does that too. Fave movies include: Clerks, Mallrats, PCU, Army of Darkness, and The Truman Show.

Canadian Enemy Number One!
Justin, traitor to the Canadian way of life, is no longer a threat to your sanity, security, or mayonnaise sandwiches. His terrorist campaign of terror was brought to an end by the heroic PoolMan in mid-2000. Justin was best known for working his poor, underpaid staff to the little nubs on their fingers, stealing candy from infants, and parking in handicapped spaces. World leaders rejoice that this dictator has been brought to his knees. Currently, Justin is being held prisoner somewhere near Hudson Bay, Ontario.
