Twisted Spinster

For Halloween, Ace is having a scary movie thread. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be anything all that scary on tv tonight (I’m thinking of traditional scary like old Dracula films or Vincent Price movies, not the tedious slasher flicks that people think are what horror should be these days) — just stupid things like that dumb “Ghost Hunter” program on Scifi. Note to today’s entertainment producers: fake “reality” junk like “Ghost Hunters,” which consists of some people pretending to scare themselves in underlit abandoned buildings even though we know they are surrounded by a production crew and no self-respecting supernatural creature would allow itself within five miles of all that hubbub, are not scary — just annoying. How do these things stay on the air?

I do happen to still have that unwatched dvd of Shaun of the Dead, as well as a dvd I bought in the bargain bin of White Zombie (the old Bela Lugosi movie, not of the modern-day rock band), so maybe I’ll watch that. Boo!

Here’s something for the soundtrack.

And here’s something truly frightening — where did Donna keep her Tardis key?

Second update: okay… maybe this is even more frightening. Or maybe just kind of disgusting. Though he does make good “labor” faces.

Next day update: I watched no movies! I went to bed instead. I fail at Halloween.
