Wondercon was fun.
I love this movie.
I know I mentioned it earlier, but I am now mentioning it again. It is the best.
The American trailer
I think the movie is scary in Italian though I like Karloff’s performances in English quite well. His little narrarator sections are fairly silly. Almost postmodern in their exposition of the horror film. He frightens you then he teases you for being frightened.
It is my favorite from Bava. One of my favorite of all time.
Skinny Puppy has a song “Deep Down Trauma Hounds” which appears on Cleanse, Fold and Manipulate. At least the version in question here does.
Below are some samples from the song.
I don’t want to talk about it.
I haven’t given it a second thought.
The mortem report doesn’t change a thing. Your client is in jail he’ll stay there.
You can look at a thing like that as evidence of instability and possible suicide.
Can anyone tell me what movie or TV show this is from? I have have been wondering since I first heard the song in 1987 or so.
The next Elvira? Guess what, its Martha Stewart. NICE.
I don’t know why I was thinking of Demolition Man. You make think I am being factious, but I confess I can watch that movie whenever and wherever it is on. For the benefit of those who have inteligently avoided this movie it is set primarily in the future and society has been engineered so that all the vices that we tolerate as a free society are outlawed. They also speak to each other in language that is related to self -help books and encounter groups. One of aphorisms that is used is, ”Enhance your calm”.
Well, the future is sooner than you think. Now you can get an mp3 or CD to “Enhance your Calm” now.
To me this is horrifying. Respond as you see fit.
There is nothing I can say that will be of any meaning on a the 6th anniversary of the terror attacks on U.S soil.
I wish I could bring some sense to today. Somehow bring meaning or healing to you or anyone regarding this matter.
