Aliens, Clowns and Geeks, Oh My!

"This is one of those films that can't be compared to anything else-a uniquely bizarre experience with the ability to enrage, enthrall, but mostly entertain."

     —Josh Millican, Dread Central

Out-of-work actor Eddy Pine stumbles upon the key to the universe and is drawn into an intergalactic conflict between killer clowns and sneaky green aliens--the fate of the planet hangs on the outcome. And thus begins a "wild, wacky comedy" (Horror Buzz) filled with hilarious twists and turns in this "fantastical sci-fi adventure!" (Bloody Disgusting)

From the mind of Richard Elfman (Forbidden Zone, Modern Vampires) comes another hilarious cult classic comedy featuring an all-star cast that includes Steve Agee (Suicide Squad), French Stewart ("3rd Rock From The Sun"), George Wendt ("Cheers"), Verne Troyer (Austin Powers), Anastasia Elfman (Bloody Bridget), Malcolm Foster Smith ("The Middle"), Rebecca Forsythe (Bronx Bull), Angeline-Rose Troy (CineDopes), Nic Novicki (Boardwalk Empire) and Martin Klebba (Pirates of the Caribbean) with a soundtrack featuring original music by Danny Elfman (Batman, Spider-Man) and Ego Plum ("SpongeBob SquarePants")!

Every Dog Must Have His Day

Jon Hamm & Cora

Hello Minions can you guess what today is? Why it's National Rescue Dog Day...Arf!

With us today to help commemorate it  are Jon Hamm and his rescue dog Cora. Hmmmmm...with all the celebrities to choose from I wonder why I went with Jon Hamm? I'm sure you have a pretty good idea, let's face it you know why!!!

Here are the top reasons to adopt a Rescue Dog:

While there are probably hundreds of reasons to rescue a dog, here are my top reasons to adopt a rescue dog.
  • You will be saving a life. ...
  • You can help in the fight against puppy mills and irresponsible breeders. ...
  • Time to find the right match for you. ...
  • It's cost-effective. ...
  • Because they might just save you.

Michael's Musings

Sigmund Freud, Analyze This
Michael Shinafelt

"Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength" Sigmund Freud 

Not sure why, but I have been thinking of when I studied psychology, particularly Freud. He fascinated me whether I agreed with what he had to say or not. 

What's that you ask? Do I agree with the quote I posted by him today? Analyze that question and get back to me with your answer, time to move forward and whip it!

Speaking of Whip It, I saw Devo for the first time at the Cruel World Festival, talk about a religious experience!!!

I am the proud recipient of a second COVID booster

Hump Day & Chill

Montgomery Clift

Look it's Montgomery Clift relaxing on a beach! "Yes" Clift is capturing a vibe for me in this languid shot of him having a Hump Day & Chill oceanside.

He's also water, as in a tall drink of one...oh those baby blues, swoon!

Don't you feel like kicking back and downing an adult beverage with Monty and taking in the scenery, I know I sure do.

Oh, what's my favorite film starring Clift? Why Suddenly Last Summer naturally. Hey nothing beats Tennessee Williams in my world. Here's the break down on it:

"In this adaptation of Tennessee Williams' play, young socialite Catherine Holly (Elizabeth Taylor) is traumatized and committed after witnessing her cousin's violent death on a trip to Europe. Her aunt, Violet Venable (Katharine Hepburn), wants to hide the events of her son's death and attempts to bribe young surgeon Dr. John Cukrowicz (Montgomery Clift) to perform a lobotomy on Catherine. But John vows to find out the truth about Catherine's state before taking any action."

So let's Hump Day & Chill at the beach with Monty shall we Minions, oh yes we shall...

Celebrating 100: Rashomon

Today I'd like to give a shout out to my buddy Jay Jacobson and his Classic Movie Blog as it is celebrating it's 100th post! The film that the honor goes to is: Rashomon 

Here's some BG on it:

"Brimming with action while incisively examining the nature of truth, "Rashomon" is perhaps the finest film ever to investigate the philosophy of justice. Through an ingenious use of camera and flashbacks, Akira Kurosawa reveals the complexities of human nature as four people recount different versions of the story of a man's murder and the rape of his wife."

Sounds intriguing, no? I say "Yes" I've actually never seen it. But after reading Jay's expert write up about it, that is something I am planning to do.

Celebrate Jay's 100th post by checking it out at the link below...Yay!

The Year Of The Doja Cat

Cat Woman
Doja Cat

I guess the Billboard Music Awards were last night. Me? I was too busy meditating to the Blood Moon to notice. 

Thus meaning I missed Doja Cat and her nearly topless look making a grand entrance.

Hey I always like a bold, provocative fashion choice and this certainly fits the bill.

I predict this week is gonna be great! It's already off to an amazing start with the lunar eclipse and our mascot for being fearless Doja Cat.

May I suggest what your motto be for the rest of this week, Hell how about forever? Bend it like Doja Cat!

Mic Drop...
