Polls Are In!


My last poll question read "Who do you think is the true Scream Queen" 55% of you are diggin Jamie Lee! One of my faves has always been Halloween. Halloween,directed by John Carpenter, was produced on a budget of $325,000 and grossed $47 million at the box office in the United States, equivalent to over $150 million as of 2008, becoming one of the most profitable independent films ever made.I remember back when I was a kid We-G and I set off to be the next John Carpenter and Debrah Hill. We had a camera, location, actors and all! We were serious about it. We never did finish...every one started paring off, we were kids what do you want. We'd film a kissing scene and next thing is every ones disappeared, no shit. Now that I think about there was a big baby boom soon after, what ever.

Born on the 22nd November 1958 in Los Angeles, California. The daughter of film stars Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh, Jamie Lee Curtis launched her film career as a "scream queen." After a nondescript supporting role on the TV series Operation Petticoat, Curtis rose to cult stardom thanx to Halloween!
I had this theory once that Jamie Lee was born a hermaphrodite! Now wait, I love Jamie Lee but i thought it we rid that her name could be just as easily be a boys name, she's been on some kind of hormone medication since like 11, her kids came to her by adoption! I think after a few days past her parents decided they wanted a girl. Doctor trimmed the excess, called him a girl and around puberty they realized instead of the trim maybe they should have patched the peach and put Jamie Lee on the estrogen cocktail! I know...I need to lay down.

Mechanical Animals


This album virtually rebuilt the band and gave it more of a Glamour Rock persona. It is Manson's worldwide best-seller. Despite its success, the album was marred by controversy and is notorious for its shocking imagery.in the beginning sales were extremely strong but it became virtually blacklisted when it became the scapegoat of the Columbine shootings of 1999 (despite the dislike of Marilyn Manson by the shooters), so why was Manson's name drop at all?
While dating Manson, during the "Jawbreaker" era, McGowan appeared in a music video for the song "Coma White", and also performed backing vocals on the song "Posthuman." Both of these songs are available on this album! Download and enjoy!

"I Killed The Teen-Dream"

Jawbreaker is a 1999 dark-comedy directed by Darren Stein. It was released February 19, 1999. The film stars Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, and Judy Greer as girls in a clique that is at the top of the feeding order in their local high school. Dark, edgy, yet still teenage, the movie obviously pays homage to the 1989 dark comedy "Heathers". It has also been compared to other teenage movies such as "Clueless" and "Carrie".The movie opens with a semi-playful kidnapping that goes terribly wrong when the huge jawbreaker that McGowan's character sticks in the victim's mouth gets hung up in her throat after she's been tossed into the trunk of a car. It was all supposed to be a prank, but now one of the hubba-hubbas is dead, and, because this is a modern satire, the other hubba-hubbas have to start acting cold-hearted about it.Rose was oh so bad in this movie. First she kills one of her friends, well she supervised. Then just as she's working on the story, and figuring out what the cops should here, Fern Mayo, an outsider, poses as a threat to her lil secret, she reinvents her as "Violette" just to keep her in order. But like all creations she develops a mind of her own! Marilyn Manson was given his cameo part because he was engaged to Rose McGowan at the time the movie was made. It was fun to watch him on the big screen! He played a small part. Cortney pics him up at a bar to take him back to her dead friends bed to fuck, so that it looks like Liz had been raped in bed, where she propped the body! If you haven't seen this movie uer really missing out.

The Sounds Of "Planet Terror"


The soundtrack to Planet Terror was released on April 3, 2007 from Varèse Sarabande, though the score managed to sell on iTunes a week early. Rodriguez revealed at Comic-Con 2006 that inspiration for his score came from music composed by John Carpenter. Rodriguez said that during the filming of Planet Terror, Carpenter's music was often played on set. Great mix-up, I love what Rodriguez does with his scores, and with a touch of Carpenter, you can't go wrong! Rose did some vocals as well, she sounds great! So here's the soundtrack,download and enjoy!

"Cherry Darling's" Go-Go Dance!


The intro to "Planet" was brilliant. The music, the tone it set, just picture perfect. I loved at the end of her dance when she is crying by the mirror. Rose McGowan so hot and perfect for "Cherry Darling". I guess she's Robert's new Salma. So if you loved her with both her legs, then watch her gogo @ "The Grindhouse"!

Planet Terror!


"Planet Terror" is a 2007 film written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, about a group of people attempting to survive an onslaught of zombie-like creatures as they feud with a military unit. The film, a tribute to the zombie film genre, stars Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodriguez, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, Michael Biehn, Jeff Fahey, and Bruce Willis. Planet Terror was released theatrically in the United States as part of a double feature with Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof", fucking bad-ass, under the title Grindhouse in order to replicate the experience of viewing exploitation films in a "grindhouse" theater.
I loved just about everything Robert Rodriguez has worked on, Desperado, "El Mariachi", "Once Upon A Time", "From Dusk", I can go on and on. "The Faculty", while it was directed by him, I know he didn't have the complete control he should have. Maybe it was the music, at least Salma Hayek was there; so I guess he pulled more strings then i saw come through. Its just not the same without his music and Tarantino's screen play on it. They should just get married, Robert and Quintin...they make good babies lol!
I noticed Rodriguez pulled lots of inspiration from "John Carpenter"! The special FX were very "The Thing", several shots and angels were like right out of a "Carpenter" movie; major thumbs up for that! Marley Shelton was so good in this movie. Rodriguez worked with her on "Sin City"; she's the one that gets killed in the opening, by Josh Harnet's character. What ever it is that she brought to the film was great, I loved her as "Dakota", I can't say anything bad about this movie! Its slowly becoming one of my favorite movies of all time! "Planet Terror" is just so good and so much fun to watch...well you might feel a little prick.

"Be Lookin Good Boppers"


Not a highly realistic or dramatic portrait of the New York gangs, but a very exiting roller coaster-ride of action, raw settings and imaginative characters. The film's opening sequence is classic and downright brilliant with NY's most vicious gangs gathering in the park. The self-acclaimed leader – Cyrus – encourages the gangs to work together and take over power. When he's suddenly killed from within the crowd, the Coney Island "Warriors" are immediately pointed as the betrayers. What follows is a fascinatingly shot chase through the dark and foggy NY ghettos. Very scary, them running through different enemy's hoods and having to look over their shoulder every other minute! Eventually "The Warriors" encounter angry-filled gangs and fight them in typical, rough backtown settings like the Subway or the notorious Bronx. James Remar is terrific as the overactive Warrior Ajax and he receives good feedback from the rest of the cast.Its fucked up what happens to Ajax, with the whole park bench scene.
"The Baseball Furies", one of the gangs called upon to get "The Warriors", were the fucking coolest and the creepiest by far; when The Warriors bump heads with them at the park on their way to Grand Central, Ajax really gives it to them! If you dig "Class Of 1984" you'll love this movie!

"The Warriors" Soundtrack


Easily Walter Hill's best movie and maybe it even ranks among the 10 best films of the late 70's. The cult-status of The Warriors is still increasing! Plus the music is GREAT! This is what "The Armies Of The Night" are bopping to. "Can you dig it", well download! Enjoy.

Tracks

1.) Theme From 'The Warriors'-Barry de Vorzon
2.) Nowhere to Run-Arnold McCuller
3.) In Havana-Ismael Miranda
4.) Echoes In My Mind-Mindrill
5.) Fight-Barry de Vorzon
6.) In the City-Joe Walsh
7.) Love Is a Fire-Genya Ravan
8.) Baseball Furies Chase-Barry de Vorzon
9.) You're Movin' Too Slow-John Vastano
10.) Last of An Ancient Breed-Desmond Child

"Feeding The Masses"


"FEEDING THE MASSES" wraps it's arms around the throat of this controversy. They show the balance between those who have gone crazy in their panic, the folks who try to get rich off of tragedy and most of all, the media's "head in the sand" approach to journalism. One "Duck and Cover"-like segment assures people the best way to avoid getting eaten by zombies is to "Just Play Dead." And of course, that is exactly what the government would like everyone to stop doing.Director Richard Griffin (also responsible for the upcoming RAVING MANIACS) put this one together beautifully. He doesn't have hardly any budget to work with, so it is surprising to see such good results. There are a few scenes in which the constraints were far too obvious, unfortunately. Much like Dave Parker's THE DEAD HATE THE LIVING, a few moments of CGI reveal their low-rez roots. Simple effects like muzzle flashes from the automatic weapons look good, but flame or explosion shots really fall short.

Polls Are In....


Last week I had the poll question "what are you guys thoughts on the up and coming "Nightmare On Elm Street Remake". Seems like you guy can't wait! according to the poll results, 80% of you "Can't Wait", while 20% said "What The Fuck Ever"! Personally I can't wait,but that's just me; I'm so curios about how it will turn out. I think the movie will fail miserably if they try to give this new Freddy that dark funny, full of personality life that Bobert Englund Gave. The original scared the fuck out of me, Freddy was always in the shadows, so mysterious, and creepy, even with his dark jokes.I think instead of trying to bring back a familiar freddy, they should just go super dark! I mean darker then "Wes Cravens New Nightmare". I don't' think his humor should come through as strongly as Englund's Freddy. Freddy should be back in the shadows, super mysterious, a real demon! I've got hi expectations about this one, and some thing tells me I'll be satisfied.

Nightmare Recap...

"WELL FUCK ME GENTLY WITH A CHAINSAW"


"Heathers" is a 1989 black comedy film starring Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, and Shannen Doherty. The film portrays four girls in a trend-setting clique at a suburban Midwestern high school. The girls—three of whom are named "Heather"—rule the school through intimidation, contempt, and sex appeal. Veronica, the protagonist, although officially a member of the Heathers, does not like the way that they run the school, their misuse of powers, and their intimidation of "lower" students."JD" a sociopath drifter who eventually falls in love with Veronica uses his hate and love, Veronica, to kill the most popular students at school, and make them all turn out to be suicide, writing suicide notes and all. But their victims are now being glorified, due to their touching death notes. And even in death they still were able to start a trend, a suicide trend! The ending is the most shocking part of the flic. Just think "Mean Girls" with lots of funerals!

Image:300px-Heathers.jpg
On the DVD edition of Heathers, the "special features" section has the script for a different ending which was considered too dark for teen audiences and nixed by New World Pictures, the distributor. It reflects back on a comment by J.D. earlier in the film, saying to Veronica, in defense of his actions, that "the only place different social types can genuinely get along is in heaven."
In this version, J.D. dies in the boiler room, and Veronica is shown walking through the school, though only from the back. This is interrupted by shots of the bomb counting down, showing that Veronica had not shut it off. When she reaches the front of the school, Veronica turns around, allowing the viewer to see that the bomb was strapped to her chest. It hits zero, the screen turns black, and Veronica says "Boom."

Teenage Head*


Teenage Head came together in the early 70's when four young guys from Westdale High School in Hamilton, Ontario decided to form a band. Gord Lewis, founder and leader, Frank Kerr, Steve Mahon, and Nick Stipanitz weren't buddies, but each had a strong interest in the same type of music. By May 1978, they released their first single "Picture My Face" on Epic Records, and quickly became part of the scene exploding in Toronto. The legendary self-titled debut album followed a year later, turning the heads of many because it perfectly captured the spirit of the era. What's more, it showcased the bands talent as writers, with the ability to craft songs that would continue to stand the test of time; even by today's standards."Teenage Head" performed in a club scene in "Class Of 1984". Hot download! Enjoy.

Class Of 1984!


Class of 1984 is a 1982 film about a new music teacher at a troubled inner city school, where students have to pass through a metal detector due to problems with gangs, drugs, and violence. It was directed by Mark L. Lester and starred Perry King as teacher Andrew Norris, Merrie Lynn Ross (who also co-executive produced) as his wife Diane Norris, Roddy McDowall of "Fright Night" as Terry Corrigan and Timothy Van Patten as Peter Stegman, the leader of the gang of thugs who terrorize the school. It was one of Michael J. Fox's early roles, before he was a well-established actor. Not know for horror, but there is some gore near the end of the movie. There's even a hanging in full view of the entire school!The movie utilized the punk look and image that was becoming part of popular culture in the early 1980s. The movie's theme song, "I Am the Future", was performed by Alice Cooper. The film also features a performance by Canadian punk band "Teenage Head". If you dig "Teenage Head" I'll be posting them later!

The Rocky Horror Picture Show!


The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 musical comedy film that parodies science fiction and horror films. With a screenplay written by Richard O'Brien and Jim Sharman, the film features Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick. The film is based on the British musical stage production The Rocky Horror Show. I never bothered watching RHPS until after the release of "Party Monster". The movie was a lot funnier than I thought it would be. Very spoofy, very campy, very much recommended. Tim Curry as "Frank-N-Future" was brilliant. I recommend watching it with a group, its a lot more fun this way, if not then just watch it!

"Lil" Columbia


After "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", "Little Nell Campbell" managed to sign a recording contract with A&M Records, producing three singles. “Do The Swim” was a moderate hit in 1976, perhaps helped by a live performance on Australian television in which her titts fell out of her top! Oh and F.Y.I. the lips featured in the opening sequence were hers, not the voice, that was "Tim Curry". Download and enjoy!

Tracks

1.) Do The Swim
2.) Stilettos and Lipstick
3.) Dance That Cocktail Latin Way

Music From Rocky Horror!


This classic midnight movie has some really funny songs! My personal favorites are "Science Fiction", "Hot Patootie" and "Dammit Janet". Really weird, but oh so much fun. Check it out and remember, "Don't dream it, be it". Download it! Enjoy.

"Jingle Balls"


This clip from the "Waters" movie "Cecil B. Demented" takes place in the van before one of their shoots. Cherish the porn star tells us about her childhood. Among her is the rest of their crew witch includes a drug addict, a devil worshiper, a gay guy, a closet hetero, and thats not all. The characters just keep getting more outrageous. This movie is funny as shit, if you like trash you'll love this flic.

Cecil B. Demented!


"Cecil B. Demented" is a 2000 cult film directed by John Waters. The movie is about Hollywood A-List actress Honey Whitlock (Melanie Griffith) a famous starlet whose public persona is that of a sweet and considerate woman, but who, in reality, is demanding and mean. Honey is introduced to Cecil and his eccentric friends (who also act as his film crew)and is kid-napped and taken to an abandoned movie theater, where she's kept captive. Cecil, Honey and the crew run around the city, filming movie scenes at real (unapproved) locations, often involving innocent bystanders in the process. Some shooting locations turn into shootouts with police, with crew members getting shot. This movie was so insane and fucking bad-ass! Melanie was perfect for the role and it was alot of fun to see her in a "Waters" film!
