David Hasselhoff



On Monday I managed to get hold of The Hoffmeister's autograph. Unfortunately I didn't get to meet him, he was doing BBC Breakfast and luckily I knew the floor manager in there. According to her he was really nice & stank of booze at 8.30 in the morning.
Excellent.
I would have preferred to have slipped him a Baywatch book, but they're all in storage.
I'm so happy I could go out and get Trashed. In fact, I think I may.
Hail The Hoff.

Top Ten Super-Villains

Here I go again. Remember - with Super-Villains usually you just have to say what you see. Bird Man (One Of The Unholy Three)


The Vulture


MODOK (Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing)


Silver Samurai



Swarm (He's Made Of Fucking Bees) aka 'Mister Buzzy'

The Beetle

The Absorbing Man (Crusher Creel)

Scorpion

Whirlwind (Formally The Human Top)

Madame Hydra -( Now Known As Viper) Married To Wolverine

I know, I know - they're all Marvel. But that's what I was brought up on. Once again - have a go at naming them all, give me your own top ten, whatever you feel comfortable with. You know it makes sense.

Se7en (1995)


The Matrix (1999)



The Birds (1963)

Die Hard (1988)


Jaws(1975)


Manhunter (1986)


The Thing (1982)


The Killers (1964)

There you go, knock yourselves out.

Mickey Spillane

Mickey Spillane died yesterday. RIP a true pulper. When asked how fast he wrote he said: 'It depends on how much money I need.'

The Camp On Blood Island

I may have posted this before, I can't remember, but what the hell, it is very, very.

Ender's Game

Re-read this recently. Everybody should be made to read it. Believe me, it's worth it.

Zelazny

Just finished reading these two puppies that Lurcharino leant me. Good stuff indeed.

The Shadow



Haven't posted many books lately, have been straying from the Righteous Path, so here's some of my The Shadow collection that seems to have escaped storage.

Wild West

Well, as inspired by Molly's recent Horror Top 10, here's my pictorial Top 10 Westerns: The Professionals (1966)
The Magnificent Seven (1960)
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976)
The Big Country (1958)

The Wild Bunch (1969)
The Searchers (1956)
Tombstone (1993)
Fort Apache (1948)
For A Few Dollars More (1965)
Shane (1953)

Rio Bravo (1959)

Ok, it's my top 11 really, I just couldn't knock one off.
Tell me what they all are / tell me your top 10 - I'm sure I'll think of some cool present.

The Hills Have Eyes




Finally saw The Hills Have Eyes remake the other day. Not bad at all. V Intense. It strangely stays close to the original for a while, goes off in a completely different direction in the middle, then veers back to a copy at the end. Still, it's pretty damn good really & it's Wes Craven approved, so that's good enough for me..
The girl from Lost (above), meets someone who's obviously watched both seasons.
Have I mentioned how much I fucking hate Lost recently?

Just Bad Etiquette














The curse of Diff'rent Strokes. Little Arnold (top), didn't die when he was supposed to (he had no liver or something & wasn't expected to live beyond about 18), sued his parents for all the money they'd ripped him off for, then wound up as a security guard. A few years back he got sued himself for allegedly attacking a middle aged woman in front of her kid when she hassled him for an autograph.
Todd Bridges (above) who played Willis, was sent down after being found guilty of armed robbery when he held up a liquer store....


...and Kimberly (Dana Plato), well lil' Kimberly got herself addicted to smack, went to jail for robbing a video store with a pellet gun, was bailed out by Wayne Newton, went back to jail for forging Valium prescriptions, went in and out of rehab, became a hard-core porn star, came out as a lesbian, the died of a drug overdose in 1999. Her death was eventually ruled as a suicide but her fiance was never completely ruled out of the investigation.
Conrad Bain, who played the dad, is just fine.
