Mare de Déu.

this thread makes me want to masturbate.

I did laugh when I came across people online complaining about how they called a character "portly" and made fun of someone with a lazy eye.

Has the internet met gay people?

There were gay people.

I think I'm going to use that gif a lot. I love it.

[Josephus]

thinking that's from Twin Peaks?

[katmai]

you would be thinking correctly.

The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971).  Simply breathtaking, is it a revenge thriller?  Is it a comedy?  Is it production design porn?  It is all of these and more: it is a Vincent Price picture.  You need only add a score by Goblin and this movie is weirder than Suspiria half a decade later would ever try to be.

Inexplicable incident after inexplicable incident occurs, all revolving around the nine murders of the titular abominable one, who has deigned to kill the surgeons who let his wife die upon their operating table years ago.  He will do so with the unlikeliest death traps, based upon the famous Ten Plagues of Egypt, from locusts to hail to frogs to... bats?  This movie, I swear, involves a man being impaled by a brass unicorn, launched by catapult across a London street.  To quote the chief inspector of Scotland Yard, "Words fail me."  But letters do not: B+

I am now seriously considering saving up some scratch to get the Vincent Price Collection on blu ray, if the four AIP Poe pictures in it and Witchfinder General are nearly as cool as this.

[Ed Anger]

Witchfinder General and The Masque of the Red Death are awesome.

The Abominable Doctor Phibes is an extravagant masterpiece of B-cinema, I utterly love that movie. The director, Robert Fuest, was pals with Anton LaVey (and probably a Satanist himself too) and that epicurean sense of the Occult and the dark clearly shows in his work. LaVey was an accomplished organist too, like Phibes.

The sequels aren't as good (and they had a much less hot Vulnavia), but they still have a few of those utterly crazy murder scenes that make you stand up and giggle like a madman.

I continue to watch TNG s2. Some episodes I must have seen before despite not remembering them as I knew just how the plot was going to work out...
Picard is a dick. Loose quote from one episode- we're heading to x, hopefully it will give me a chance to evaluate our new medical officer. Really Picard? You want people to be injured?
The way they had another doctor for this one series is curious.....
And she sucks. Way too much of a female Bones.

It's not just that she's a female knock-off of Bones, she has all his occasional abrasiveness without the underlying humor or humanity.
