Just Because...It's Weird

It's All Fun & Games Until...
Miranda Kerr 

Just because it's weird, just because it's visual & just because it's Miranda Kerr, here is yet another one of a kind image from Tokyo.

That's right kids just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful photo op of Ms. Kerr and a Japanese food company mascot who goes by the name Marukome Kun. Yeah, you read that correctly, I don't get it.

All I know is it has something to do with promoting food, but honestly I find Marukome to come off more than a little disturbing. With his big blank eyes and wide open mouth...I will stop short of going there, think about it, but not too much.

Miranda is giving good face despite what I think is a totally awkward and perverse situation. Seriously would you want to be photographed with that?! I thought not.

Be disturbed, be be disturbed!

The Horror: Devil's Domain

The Devil really did make her do it...

Cleopatra Entertainment has announced the home video release of DEVIL'S DOMAIN, starring Michael Madsen, Sticky Fingers, Fred Rose, Rene Nezhola (STORAGE WARS) and featuring the music of Iggy Pop, DMX, The Onyx, and more. The film is currently available on all VOD platforms, and will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray July 11th.

 

DEVIL'S DOMAIN is a new-age horror film centered on a cyber-bullying incident at a fictional high school that goes terribly wrong. The victim then seeks her own unique form of revenge, albeit with some super-natural help along the way. 

 

DEVIL'S DOMAIN was written and directed by Jared Cohn (THE HORDE, WISHING FOR A DREAM, THE DOMICILE) and was produced by David Sterling. Brian Perera is Executive producing with Tim Yasui co-producing for Cleopatra Entertainment.

 

"Devil's Domain is a story about the ramifications of social media, cyber-bullying and how it affects the youth of today," said director Cohn.

 

Cohn has also been tapped to write and direct the upcoming Cleopatra project STREET SURVIVORS, based on the ill-fated 1977 plane crash that took the lives of several of the Lynyrd Skynyrd band members and crew as seen thru the eyes of Artimus Pyle, the band's drummer at the time and one of the surviving members of the plane crash.

Things That Make U Go, WTF?!

WTF?!
Bella Thorne & Blackbear

When I first saw this photo I went "WTF?!" to me, myself and I. I really couldn't tell who it was or what was going down with in it.

Honestly, I still only sort of know now after reading about it. The pink lady in question is actress and beauty Bella Thorne of the Freeform show Famous in Love which I binge watched, it was OK, but Bella has what is referred to as the "it" factor and whether the show goes to a second season or not her career will go on.

Now to the gentleman with the box on his head, apparently he is a musician who goes by the name of Blackbear. WTF?! as in Who The F#ck is that? I mean I suppose I could do a Google search on him and find out something that would help me solve that mystery, but I really don't have enough interest to do that at present. Perhaps I will later, or perhaps not. My feeling is if I have to do that to know anything about you, then your publicist and yourself are not doing a proper job and maybe, just maybe there isn't anything worth finding out.

Yeah, I know sort of harsh, but unless I am going to interview him or have heard any music he has done....well, you get the picture. 

So until I decide to do a search on him, Blackbear will be a "whatever" to me, and maybe that is for the best.

Let's Talk About Sex: Jon Hamm

Jon Hamm
In
Bridesmaids

Did the byline titillate you? Perhaps arouse you? Or at least make you curious? Well here is stud Jon Hamm to talk about sex. Sort of, while catching a wave on the WWW I found Hamm addressing his sex scene in Bridesmaids via People Magazine and since I love me a slice of Hamm I had to read more!

Well he did not disappoint. He delivered exactly the type of answer you'd expect from a guy who oozes S-E-X...

File this under Enjoyable: 

"While Jon Hamm admits it was awkward filming his sex scene with Kristen Wiig in the 2012 comedy Bridesmaids (especially since he had to wear a "flesh-colored thong"), he also kind of … well, enjoyed it. "It's like running in the rain. There's a certain point where you go, 'Fuck it, I'm already wet. I'm not going to get any less wet so I might as well enjoy how this feels,'" he told Playboy." (text People Magazine)

Hows that for some Saturday Sizzle? Thought so!

Film Buff Friday: Re-Animator

I remember Re-Animator causing quite a stir when it came out, yes that makes me old. I love this movie! I also saw the musical version by it's creator Stuart Gordon a few years back  in Los Angeles. 

It was on point, and Stuart was there that night. The more you know...

HERBERT WEST HAS A GOOD HEAD ON HIS SHOULDERS... AND ANOTHER ONE ON HIS DESK. 

One of the most wildly popular horror movies of all-time, Stuart Gordon's enduring splatter-comedy classic Re-Animator returns to Blu-ray in a stunning restoration packed with special features!

When medical student Dean Cain advertises for a roommate, he soon finds one in the form of Dr. Herbert West. Initially a little eccentric, it some becomes clear that West entertains some seriously outlandish theories - specifically, the possibility of re-animating the dead. It's not long before Dean finds himself under West's influence, and embroiled in a serious of ghoulish experiments which threaten to go wildly out of control... 

Based on H.P. Lovecraft's classic terror tale Herbert West - Reanimator and featuring a standout performance from Jeffrey Combs as the deliciously deranged West, Re-Animator remains the ground-zero of '80s splatter mayhem and one of the genre's finest hours.

Michael's Musings

King Cold Miser
Michael Shinafelt

"Cold is the color of crystal the snow light, That falls from the heavenly skies" Cold - Annie Lennox

Yes it's summer, but why am I feeling so cold? Well this past Tuesday we Americans celebrated July 4th. It was the 241st Birthday of our country, a celebration of a break from tyranny. Yet in 2017 certain people with brain disorders voted it back in. 

Thus I told people on my social media outlets to celebrate their independence, that is what will keep us all strong, shall we continue? Fer sure!

File this under things that never get old: "See Darlin' You Are A Whore" - Cristal Connors, Showgirls

It's official, I am the booty whisperer 

Admit it, kale sucks

Annie Lennox was recently mistaken for a promising new singer. Ugh, millennials.

Stop calling Kelly Clarkson fat

Always remember, your neighbors are cray

Fourthing Hard

Fourthed Hard!
Justin Theroux & Laura Dern 

Normally when a Holiday is over I stop posting about it. But I decided to give the 4th of July one last go. Why? Because I saw this cool image of two of my favorites Justin Theroux & Laura Dern via Justin's Instagram with the caption "Fourthing Hard." Thus today's byline, naturally.

The main reason I thought to use it is sort of silly, sort of cool, sort of me Charlie. It's because Justin used some of the many graphics available on Instagram to add to his duo photo. I love that feature in "The Gram" and use it with frequency in my stories section. Sometimes recycling the image on my actual page or other places.

Now if only Justin would caption one of those magnificent images of him freeballing with something really provocative...one can dream can't one?
