Hump Day & Chill

Near Dark

It's Scary Season, you know what that means? Time to Hump Day & Chill to one of my favorite vampire movies Kathryn Bigelow's Near Dark!

Here's how the story goes:

Cowboy Caleb Colton (Adrian Pasdar) meets gorgeous Mae (Jenny Wright) at a bar, and the two have an immediate attraction. But when Mae turns out to be a vampire and bites Caleb on the neck, their relationship gets complicated. Wracked with a craving for human blood, Caleb is forced to leave his family and ride with Mae and her gang of vampires, including the evil Severen. Along the way Caleb must decide between his new love of Mae and the love of his family.

"Yes" it's as good as it sounds and then some. I hate to give away any more than this synopsis, but suffice it to say this is a unique one of a kind vampire movie that takes you on a journey that is anything but boring.

Hump Day & Chill!!!

Countdown To Halloween...

Give It Up Do As I Say
Lady Gaga

This year with Halloween being tailored to COVID 19, I still think it's important to get into the spirit (of course the pun was intended.) It's my favorite time of the year. This being stated I thought I would share with you what a huge fan I am of vampires.

"Yes" I love vampires, when I was a youngster I wanted to be one when I grew up. Yeah, there's that...

Here to represent is Lady Gaga as The Countess from American Horror Story: Hotel. While AHS: Hotel had it's flaws (all seasons of that show do, some more than others.) I enjoyed it for the most part. Especially how they set it in Hollywood and fictionalized real Show Biz icons and Serial Killers, into the tapestry of the story.

Well Minions we only have 21 more days until the High Holy Day, and if you want next year to be more celebratory, get out and VOTE!

Film Buff Friday: The Addiction

Being a fan of vampires & Abel Ferrara's work - I remember going to see "The Addiction" at The Nuart in West Los Angeles, CA - I even owned it on video for a spell. Lili Taylor is amazing! The Black and White photography superb. It is one of the most fascinating, horrifying, not to mention challenging additions to the genre. "Yes" that is a recommendation.

The Addiction [Blu-ray] (6/26)

Abel Ferrara and his 1995 take on the bloodsuckers with The Addiction. Philosophy grad student Kathleen (Lili Taylor) is bitten by a vampire and must learn to come to terms with her new lifestyle with now features a frequent craving for human blood. Shot in stunning black and white and on the streets of New York, The Addiction is a raw and shocking vampire film that only Abel Ferrara could make.

You Suck!

Michael's Musings

When I Think About You I...
Michael Shinafelt
Hello from the other side. While Trump continues to be the biggest punchline to everything all over the globe, life goes on. 

There is really so much beauty in world, like plastic bags tayin' in da win, Unicorn poop and rainbows. OK, kidding about the Unicorn poop, or am I? Remember anything is possible and don't call me Yentl

Shall we proceed? Computer says "yes"...

The Trumps visiting the Pope. The Pope looked like he needed an Exorcism in the photos.

I'm in the mood, come on give it up

A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him. Werd!

Tinsley Mortimer has a hotter vag than Sonja Morgan. Sonja needs to get over her jealousy tour.

Turning tricks with my crucifix. Someone has to.

I know Vampires who have aged more than Pamela Anderson. Don't judge me by the company I keep.
l-r Myself, Mike Clifford & Ivan 
Yesterday I celebrated the success of my friend Mike Clifford's video. It's a dance cover of  "What A Wonderful World" - we had a "wonderful" lunch at Casita Del Campo check Mike out on the net here: https://www.facebook.com/MikeCliffordsWonderfulWorld/

Beware of the trash that will not burn

Congratulations to Troian Bellisario aka Spencer Hastings. She directed the best episode thus far of Pretty Little Liars this season. Only five more to go until it the show ends. Yes, I am sad.

Hating people takes too much energy, pretend that they're dead

Helpful Hint: Never drink Tejava Tea (which I love) after you have had a fruit smoothie. The combination of acids made me hurl.

I wonder what the world would be like if I had Bette Davis Eyes?

Double Take: Pamela Anderson

Say What?!?!
Pamela Anderson
Does a leopard change it's spots? Sometimes, just get a good look at these side by side images of one Ms. Pamela Anderson at the Cannes Film Festival attending the premiere of 120 Beats Per Minute.

She traded bombshell for couture and is almost unrecognizable in her Vivienne Westwood gown. 

Change does a Pamela good. IMHOP she looks amazing, there are vampires who have aged more than her. 

I wonder what the wheels turning in her pretty little head are planning next? We shall find out very soon I'm sure.
