Hump Day & Chill

Alexander Skarsgard

Here's the sexy Alexander Skarsgard at the premiere of his latest Wicker. Here's the synposis:

"On the outskirts of a village by the sea, lives a Fisherwoman; smelly, single and perpetually ridiculed. One day, fed up with her stuffy, small-minded neighbors, she commissions herself a husband to be made from wicker. In an otherwise conservative town, this unconventional romance sparks outrage, jealousy and chaos."

Alexander plays the man made of Wicker, naturally. 

What's that you ask? Why would one Hump Day & Chill to this? Wait for it...

See what it says on his shirt???

"Yes" please... now Hump Day & Chill to THAT!!!

Where The Wild Roses Grow

Everything's Coming Up Roses
Kylie Minogue & Nick Cave

One of my favorite duets is Nick Cave & Kylie Minogue "Where The Wild Roses Grow" off of his brilliant 1996 album Murder Ballads (Yes, I have it.)

The concept for the album goes like this:

"As a traditional musical genre, murder ballads date back to 17th-century Europe, where street singers and broadside ballads functioned as early forms of crime reporting or "oral tabloids" detailing real or fictional crimes of passion."

I won't give away any of the story you can cut to the video and enjoy it after the jump!

Tis the season after all...18 days till Halloween, Silver Shamrock IYKYK

Creature Feature

Rico Browning

Here's something to kick off your weekly grind. "Yes" it's a BTS image from the classic Creature From The Black Lagoon. 

Here's some "Creature Feature" trivia: The 1954 classic horror film Creature from the Black Lagoon used dual actors, split locations, and innovative underwater filming techniques to bring the Gill-man to life

The gentleman pictured is Rico Browning . He performed without a scuba tank or goggles, holding his breath for up to four minutes at a time. 

Impressive...

Hello Monday...time to get your creature on!!!

"Carrie" Turns 50

"Crazy Carrie"

Last night I attended the 50th Anniversary Screening of the Brian DePalma classic "Carrie" at Hollywood Forever Cemetery as a VIP with my friend Scott Jacobs in tow.

The evening was hosted by Janelle Monae and it was a blast! I was too young to see "Carrie" when it first opened in theaters, thus my only experience viewing it has been relegated to video until now...

Seeing it blown up in epic proportions at Hollywood Forever it made much more of an impact, I must say. Anyway catch a vicarious thrill and enjoy my images from last night's to do.

"This is Halloween, this is Halloween

Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat 'til the neighbors gonna die of fright
It's our town, everybody scream
In this town of Halloween" - This Is Halloween, The Nightmare Before Christmas

Michael's Musings

We've Met Before, Haven't We?
Michael Shinafelt

Boo! Hello Minions! As you know it's my favorite time of the year October, not least because of Halloween happening all month long. I am a hard one to give a good scare to, or to get creeped out over something, But it does happen on occasion. 

Thus the photo above is a homage to Robert Blake as "Mystery Man" in David Lynch's Lost Highway. Every time he appeared on screen a sense of dread and fear washed over me. It was one of those lightning in a bottle experiences, the images of him still haunt me to this day. That's all...

Just found out that female penguins will exchange sex for nice rocks. So if you're having a sh!t day, just remember that hooker penguins exist

Did one of those which Halloween character are you things online. Turns out I'm Annabelle, go figure

Hitting the 50th Anniversary Screening of Carrie at Hollywood Forever Cemetery this Saturday. Can't wait to see the ending in that setting! IYKYK!!!

I love how in horror movies the person yells out "Hello?" as if the killer is gonna yell out, "In the kitchen, want a sandwich?" 

BTW if you believe forcing God into schools will improve morality, I'm gonna need you to explain why it didn't work in your church...I'm waiting!!!

Saw a great indie revenge film called Violation on Tubi. It's definitely has it's own unique POV and well worth watching.

While Googling, very few letters are as important as the "R" in Gary Oldman, think about it, but not too much

Did you know Charles Manson and Ted Bundy were lovers on the Titanic, it's true - Ryan Murphy, probably

Woman Crush of the Week - The Queen of Spooky Season Sarah Michelle Gellar not just for Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Helen Shivers from I Know What You Did Last Summer is iconic as well. Were not worthy!

The only difference between "Religion" and "Superstition" is the spelling. The more you know.

Who's the biggest slut in the pumpkin patch??? Tell me

Repeat after me: "I'm too amazing to be someone's unsure thing" 

"I wish the world thought more like a gay man" - Shannen Doherty 

Parting Thought: What kind of creatures do you see in your dreams when you take off brand melatonin???
