Just recently caught up with this ol fav of mine C. Barker's Rawhead Rex...

Great story/film. Barker didn't like the film. I thought it was a crazy classic. The sweary verger was a lot of fun.

The film's a fav of mine as well. Didn't know it was a book.

That's funny Bloof I didn't know it was a movie ::big grin::
It'sa short story from Clive Barker's Books of Blood...
Gotta put it down tho, cuz I just got Stephen King's new one in from the library...sticker on the cover says 14 day loan.
Sleeping Beauties that's tha title...

I 'member seein' this one at the drive in...real formative in my relation to horror...tha part where the lady gets her eyes pecked out and gets smucked by a truck ::love::...

Love Hitchcock!

....

Taking the form of a human being and corrupting it always good makes fer a monster in my book...Zombies fer one instance..The one's in the last flick I saw were some scary fucked up naked bloody blind hunchbacked bucktoothed really freaked my shit.
They was all climatized and adapted to post ZA enviro.
Extinction is the name of the flick. Lotta good hooks and twists in this one despite a few slow and sappy parts.

Really got me thinkin' 'bout how long I could hold out....

Watched the trailer for this and it looks pretty decent.

Speaking Hitchcock and the Birds...

I was just listening to an NPR interview with Tippi Hedren (the Birds, Marnie), her daughter Melanie Griffiths (Something Wild), and her daughter Dakota Johnson (The Social Network), where Tippi was talking about her last day with Alfred Hitchcock...

Tippi said that she was called in to Alfred's office, and conjured her to get-it-on with him there, when she refused, she said he forced himself on her, and she pushed him off. She said he said if she didn't comply she would have a hard time getting any work (as he held her contract). She said she told him "Do what you got to do!", left and slammed the door harder than she ever had before or since.
