Tales of True Adventure for Rugged Men Not Unlike Yourself
And this looks amazing.
Although I always feel a little icky about getting excited for these types of documentaries, like I’m a fan of Bundy’s or something. I’m not. This heap of shit killed at least 30 women. But the way he did it – and how he got away with it as long as he did – is fascinating.
Anyway, January 24th.
Yes, one more reason to hate Morrissey.
Lot 208 of 401, with a starting bid of $5,000.00. It’s expected to go for as much as $15,000.00!
From the auction site …
A male nurse ‘Pig Face’ makeup appliance from Rod Serling’s essential anthology series The Twilight Zone. This foam latex makeup appliance is painted in a light flesh tone with pink lips and large nostrils, and has been professionally conserved by LACMA object conservator Irena Calinescu and pin-mounted to an oval museum board. The appliance was made by prolific Hollywood makeup artist William Tuttle, who previously worked on H.G. Welles’ The Time Machine. It was acquired from science fiction writer and memorabilia collector Forrest J. Ackerman. This appliance has been meticulously cared for and stored in a light, climate and humidity controlled fine art warehouse. As a result, though the appliance is delicate and the foam is now brittle with age, the shape, color and appearance remain intact, and it is in good vintage condition overall.
In the episode ‘The Eye of the Beholder’ (206), the appliance is worn during the trademark twist ending, when the medical staff is repulsed by their patient’s ‘horrific’ beautiful appearance, one of the seminal moments in television history.
There’s actually TONS of cool shit in this auction. Check it out here.
Anyone watching this?
It’s supposed to be pretty terrifying to the point of making you vomit according to this article…
Steven King went so far as to say the series is “close to a work of genius.” I finished 2 out of 10 episodes. It’s not as scary as people on the inter webs are making it out to be, but it’s good. Lemme know what y’all think…
Correction: My inner 12-year-old wants to see this.
Check it out, you bastards.
BMG’s Art of The Album series presents a unique insight into the making of a seminal album. Recorded on the 8th June 2016, Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible of The Damned sat down with Colleen Murphy from Classic Album Sundays to discuss the stories, recording and impact of one punk’s very first album release.
Okay, let’s see if this works.
Anybody a fan of Return of the Living Dead?
UPDATE: This is an experimental server upload of a documentary about the film.
Effective immediately, The Sweats have been moved to Friday. Also, I’m beginning to think Man’s Story had the best cover art.
