Seeing Red

The Women In Red
l-r
Dakota Johnson & Tilda Swinton

Since the Venice Film Festival happened the WWW has been flooded with impressions from it. This is one I found particularly striking, call it seeing red.

Why look it's Dakota Johnson & Tilda Swinton sauntering down the red carpet for a screening of their horror flick Suspiria. Look how red they both are, they match the carpet, but what about the drapes?!

Perhaps it's because there will be blood in the horror remake. Or maybe it's because they are red is the color of passion and they are both feeling quite heated. Then there is always the "just because" factor, you know, because they can and wanted to draw as much attention to themselves and their project.

Whatever! It's all fun and games until your film is poorly received, which luckily for this twosome it wasn't.

Off I go, I am seeing red at present of a totally different nature...

The Horror: Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho

Who Does Your Eyebrows?
Janet Leigh

Leaving one of the most indelible impressions of any horror film in history Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho is a classic that has endured through the generations. It has spawned three sequels, one remake and a prequel TV series, Bates Motel which is coming up on it's fifth and final season. 

Nothing had ever been seen on the silver screen before like Janet Leigh's shower scene death as Marion Crane. Not only was it shocking in it's brutality it was the first time a protagonist had been killed off in the first thirty minutes of a movie.

So for a Halloween treat I have decided to post a montage of images from one of my favorite horror movie deaths of all time, the "shower scene" from Psycho for you to savor. 

T.G.I.F! 

Help Me!

Watch Out!

Who You Gonna Call?

Wonder if They Will Get Slimed?!

T.G.I.F! Here is the cast of the new Ghostbusters in uniform. Pretty standard as were the ones in the original.

The new all female cast, in case you didn't know already includes: Melissa McCarthy, Kristin Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.

OK, is there anyone out there who feels this film like so much else in Hollywood is an unnecessary reboot, remake, or however the Hell you want to refer to it?

Honestly the only thing that would compel me to see this are McCarthy and Wiig and some bomb ass reviews to go along with it.

But, hey it's the weekend and I'm a giver and thought people, like myself would be curious to see the gang together and ready to bust some ghost ass!

Yep, it's all about fun!
