Mega-Jinx vs. Killer Mr. Bitey

-
Apologies for my recent absence, on a whim I took much needed week off work and I am now trapped on my couch apparently unable to stop watching American Gladiators. I don't know why, but, seriously, it's becoming a problem, I may need help.

To make up for my recent uselessness here's a picture of me taking on Mr. Bitey in a titanic battle (during the ads in American Gladiators obviously).



 
Be back soon. x

    Damn, this is a giant Japanese monster movie waiting to happen. Would be great on a double-bill with the Sharks In Space feature. =)

    Wow! Amazing special effects.
    I haven't seen this one. Who wins?

    I'm just like Tiffany!!

    Oh, Joe, that's a brilliant idea. We'll be millionaires, I tell you!

    At risk of ruining the surprise ending: initially it appears that I win by cunningly defeating Mr. Bitey with the devilish move of placing him on a higher shelf. However, in an unexpected twist, while I am distracted by the cute deaf guy dislocating his shoulder and still winning the eliminator on American Gladiators, Mr. Bitey launches a surprise attack from behind and takes me down, as blood splatters Hulk Hogan on the TV screen my final words are ‘I regret nothing but buying this damn fish!’ Left nicely open for a sequel.

    Wonder if I can get Sonia to play me…….

    Sorry: Sonia's salary demands are too steep for the budget. It'll have to be Gina G.

    Suspected as much. Liverpudlian popstrels are highly sought after. Gina G it is then, I'm sure we can work her Australian accent into the script without too many plot holes.

Rentaghost

The Rentaghost cast When I was young Rentaghost was my absolute favourite show ever Once, when I was about seven, in an attempt to integrate me, my mother suggested I join the Brownies; the idea was met with scorn and derision largely because the Brownies swarmed (I’m assuming that’s what Brownies do) on a Rentaghost night, and they sucked, and dressed like tiny poos, and they sucked. It turned out later that I just wasn’t a naturally inclined participator in group activities. Needless to say I didn’t have a lot of friends as youngster, but then there are also no childhood pictures of me dressed like a chubby, redheaded turd at a jamboree somewhere, so take that, Brownies, who’s big and clever now?! Rentaghost was a British children's television comedy programme broadcast on the BBC between 1976 and 1984 and revolved around a company, 'Rentaghost', which hired out ghosts for a variety of potentially hilarious jobs and purposes. The first series of Rentaghost saw th...

Clive Barker's Coldheart Canyon: A Hollywood Ghost Story

I have issues with Clive Barker. In theory I should love him, the gore factor, the homoeroticism, the 80s, etc., but somehow I find his books inherently forgettable and that annoys me because I really want to love him and he insists on making that so hard for me. I keep being surprised by books of his, they jump out at me from nowhere and I discover I’ve read them and just couldn’t remember a damn thing about them. (Actually the reason CB keeps cropping up in my house at the moment is that my husband has suddenly developed something of a big boy crush on him and his novels keep dropping through my letterbox with alarming regularity and startling me with their familiarity). When I read the blurb about Coldheart Canyon I thought that it was going to be right up my street: A Hollywood Ghost Story, it promised me, I love old Hollywood, I love ghost stories, this has to be the Clive Barker book for me! Also, one irate Amazon reviewer described it as: ‘far from what I would call horro...

Horrific Beards I Have Known and Loved

Kurt Russell R.J. MacReady The Thing (1982)   I’m fairly certain that it’s widely agreed upon and that I can speak on behalf of everyone everywhere when I say that The Thing is awesome. I’m also confident that few people will disagree when I say that Kurt Russell in The Thing is awesome. But, despite the inarguable awesomeness of Mr. Russell, there is still one who monumentally and heroically overshadows even him, one who is the true star of The Thing, and that star is, of course, Kurt Russell’s beard! As helicopter pilot R.J. MacReady, Kurt Russell, or more specifically Kurt Russell’s beard, is stationed at U.S. Outpost 31 in the Antarctic when all manner of alien skulduggery kicks off and it seems apparent to me that it was the beard who was running this show. Although part of a twelve man crew, MacReady is something of the brooding loner and prefers to spend his time alone in his cabin playing computer chess and cultivating an alcohol problem. Despite this, and a genera...
