Action Sequel Double-Shot: “THE EXPENDABLES 2” and “THE DARK KNIGHT RISES” (2012)

Last Night, I Double-Dosed Myself On A Pair Of Action Sequels…

“THE EXPENDABLES 2“

(2012)

…And…

“THE DARK KNIGHT RISES“

(2012)

😀       😀

I Can EASILY Say This…

“I Liked Both Flicks MORE Than Their Preceding Flicks, Fo SHO!“

😉

In Regard To…

“THE EXPENDABLES 2“

…It Was One Of The MOST FUN Hardcore Action Cheese-Fests I’ve Ever Experienced.

Period.

I Had A Total BLAST Giving It A Go!

Almost All Of My Classic Faves Were Present!

SYLVESTER STALLONE

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER

BRUCE WILLIS

CHUCK NORRIS

DOLPH LUNDGREN

…And…

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME

😀

WOOT!!!

Yeah.

It Was Fun, Fo Flippiddy-Flippin’ SHO!!!

And As For…

“THE DARK KNIGHT RISES“

…I Can Tell You Was BETTER Than…

“THE DARK KNIGHT“

…Though, Sadly, That’s Not Saying Too Much.

I Didn’t Like…

“THE DARK KNIGHT“

…And Felt That…

“THE DARK KNIGHT RISES“

…Was Fun, But Horribly OVER-LONG.

I Was Gearing-Up For A Big Finish…

…Only To Realize There Was Still An HOUR Left In It.

Sheesh.

BUT…

…It Was Pretty Entertaining.

I Liked It.

That’s About All I Did, Though.

I Haven’t Been Much Of A Fan Of This Batman Trilogy.

I Wanted To Be.

I Still Want To Be.

I’m Just, Ya Know, Kinda Not.

Oh Well.

Shit Happens.

My Bad.

ANYWAY.

You Know I Hate Spoilers, So I Won’t Delve Too Deeply Within These Two Flicks.

All I’ll Say Is The Same Thing I’ve Already Said…

…BOTH Were BETTER Than The Flicks That Preceded Them.

What More Could You Ask Of Me?!

What?!?

“THE EXPENDABLES 2“

…Was FUN.

“THE DARK KNIGHT RISES“

…Was FUN.

So, I Suppose Complaining Would Only Be Done In The Event Of An Argument.

Otherwise…

…Nah…

…I Won’t Complain.

I’ll Likely End-Up Owning Them Both.

Well…

…Okay…

…Perhaps I Won’t…

…But I’ll Buy Them For Someone Whom Has No Issues With Letting Me Borrow Them.

That Way I Don’t Feel Scummy Or Dirty.

I’ll Just Need Them Once A Year Or So.

That’s What I’m Banking-On, Anyway.

Sound Like A Plan To You?!

GREAT!!

It Does To Me, ALSO.

😉

😀       😀

Need A Glimpse Into What I’m Doing Right Now?? Does THIS Help?!?!

Double Shot: The Song Stuck In My Head THAT ALSO Makes Me Smile: “A MATTER OF TRUST” by BILLY JOEL (1986)

“Some Love Is Just A Lie Of The Heart…

…The Cold Remains Of What Began With A Passionate Start…

…And, They May Not Want It To End…

...But It Will…

…It‘s Just A Question Of When…

…I‘ve Lived Long Enough To Have Learned…

…The Closer You Get To The Fire…

…The More You Get Burned…

…But, That Won‘t Happen To Us…

…’Cause It‘s Always Been A Matter Of Trust…“

***[{*}]***

The 1986 Single Album Version Of “A MATTER OF TRUST” By BILLY JOEL !!!

***[{*}]***

“Now, I Know You‘re An Emotional Girl…

…It Took A Lot For You To Not Lose Your Faith In This World…

…But, I Can‘t Offer You Proof…

…But, You‘re Going To Face A Moment Of Truth...

…It‘s Hard When You‘re Always Afraid…

…You Just Recover When Another Belief Is Betrayed…

…So Break My Heart If You Must…

…It‘s A Matter Of Trust…“

***[{*}]***

“A MATTER OF TRUST” Was The Biggest Hit Off Of BILLY JOEL‘s 1986 Album “THE BRIDGE” !!!

***[{*}]***

**[{*}]**

*[{*}]*

Alright, My Peeps…

…I’m Going To Try Making This Short-N-Sweet.

For The First Time In My Life…

…This Song…

“A MATTER OF TRUST“

by BILLY JOEL

…Actually…

…Oddly…

…Honestly…

…(almost) Depressed Me.

ARRRGGGHHH!!!

If Life Truly Is A Game…

…As I’ve Long Believed…

…Then This Is One Time Where I Wanna Throw A Penalty Flag…

…’Cause The Damned Radio Station Just Kicked Me Hard In The Stomach THEN Laughed At Me!!!

Sheesh.

Oldies Station My Ass.

BILLY JOEL?!?

Really?!?

The Man’s AMAZING.

The Music Is WONDERFUL.

And, I Did Manage To Smile Throughout My Listen-Along.

But, I Still Can’t Get Over The Fact That This Song…

“A MATTER OF TRUST“

by BILLY JOEL

…From…

1986

…Is Now An OLDIE.

😦

🙂

😀

It’s Really A Mixed-Bag Of Emotions, Honestly.

😉

VAN DAMME Double Shot: “DEATH WARRANT” (1990) and “DOUBLE IMPACT” (1991)

Well…

…Y’all Have My Brother To Thank For This One.

He Was Out Shopping…

…He Found This…

…And He Simply Had To Snag It For Me!

Nothing Like A Double Shot Of…

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME

…To Get The Morning Started On The Good Foot, Ya Know?!

SURE YOU DO!!

😉

We Begin With…

“DEATH WARRANT“

(1990)

…Starring…

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME

…With…

ROBERT GUILLAUME

…And…

PATRICK KILPATRICK

!!! !!!! !!!

In This Flick…

…VAN DAMME Plays A Police Detective Who’s Going Undercover To Find Out What’s Up In Regard To A String Of Murders.

The Thing Is…

…He’s Undercover Posing As An Inmate In A Maximum-Security Prison!!!

Sound Like Fun To Y’all?!

GOOD!!

FUN Is The Name Of The Game When We’re Talkin’ ’bout Some Serious…

…VAN DAMMEAGE!!!

😀

And Then We Have…

“DOUBLE IMPACT“

(1991)

…Starring…

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME

…As…

…Oh Yeah…

…TWIN BROTHERS!

!!! !!!! !!!

That’s Right, My Peeps.

You Get A Double Dose Of VAN DAMME In The Same Flick!

He Plays Twin Brothers ALEX And CHAD Who Were Separated As Infants The Night Their Parents Were Murdered.

Now…

…The Two Are Back Together Again.

They’re Going After Those Whom Murdered Their Parents…

…And They’re Out To Kick Some Serious Arses!!!

😀

Now Who Could Turn That Down?!

EXACTLY!!

Only Movie Snobs Could Do That.

VAN DAMME Isn’t Going To Win An Oscar Anytime Soon…

…But He’s Won Many Awards In The Annals Of Movie CHEESYNESS!

(hehehe Fo SHO!)

😉

Alright, My Peeps…

…I Do Admit That Neither Of These Flicks Is A True Classic.

In Fact…

…Neither Of Them Are Even The Best VAN DAMME Flick.

So What Are They?!

They’re Exactly As I’ve Said, My Peeps.

They’re Pure CHEESY-FUN, That’s What!!

🙂

Would I Recommend Either Of These Flicks To You As A “Must Watch” Type Of Flick?

Nah.

Not Really.

They’re A Regular Pant-Load Of Fun, Yes…

…But They’re Mainly For Those Who Appreciate Quality “B-Movies”, Ya Know?!

I Tend To Consider Any Movie Starring…

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME

…To Be A “B-Movie”…

…Which Is Why/How I’m Able To Enjoy Them So Much.

I Go Into Each One Not Expecting Very Much.

Just Cool Action/Adventure.

To Me…

…That’s Good Enough.

I’m All About Fun…

…And Cheese…

…And “B-Movies”…

…So Some Quality VAN DAMMEAGE Tends To Satisfy My Wants/Needs Very Well.

Could It Do The Same Thing For YOU?!

T’Is Possible, I Reckon!!

😀

TOM SELLECK: Double Shot Edition: “LAST STAND AT SABER RIVER” (1997) and “CROSSFIRE TRAIL” (2001)

Yes, My Peeps.

It’s Been A TOM SELLECK Western Type Day, Thus Far.

Having Just Finished Goin’ Back-To-Back With These Two…

…I Realized I Haven’t Talked Much Recently About Movies.

This Actually Didn’t Surprise Me Any…

…Since I Haven’t Really Watched Too Many Worth Writing About.

BUT…

…After Watching These Two Westerns…

…I Felt The Need To Give’em A Shoot-Out Shout-Out.

😉

I Started With…

ELMORE LEONARD’s

“LAST STAND AT SABER RIVER“

(1997)

…Starring…

TOM SELLECK

…With…

DAVID CARRADINE

…And…

KEITH CARRADINE

🙂

TOM SELLECK Plays “PAUL CABLE”…

…An Ex-Confederate Army Cavalryman…

…Who Has Just Returned To His Old Stomping-Grounds In Arizona…

…Along With His Wife And Two Children.

He’s Turned His Back On The Civil War Raging Back East…

…And Aims To Resume His Normal Life Again.

BUT…

…It Just Ain’t Gonna Be That Easy!

(And When Is It Ever, Ya Know?!)

There Are OTHER Folks Who Now Claim His Land…

…And Other OTHER Folks Who Pledge To Help Him IF He Helps Them With Their Dastardly Plans!

Needless To Say…

…It’s Gonna Be Hard-Slog For TOM SELLECK In This One.

Will TOM SELLECK Get These Peeps Off His Land?

Will TOM SELLECK Get Dragged Back Into The War??

Will TOM SELLECK Be Able To Save His Family???

Ooooo…

…Gotta Watch It To Find Out, Kiddies, Fo SHO!!!

😉

😀

THEN…

…I Moved On To…

LOUIS L’AMOUR’s

“CROSSFIRE TRAIL“

(2001)

…Starring…

TOM SELLECK

…With…

VIRGINIA MADSEN

&

WILFORD BRIMLEY

…And…

MARK HARMON

🙂

In This Flick…

TOM SELLECK Is “RAFE COVINGTON”…

…A Man Of The West Who Keeps His Word.

He’s Made A Promise To Look After A Friend’s Wife And His Lands.

BUT…

…The Wife (VIRGINIA MADSEN) Doesn’t Know Him…

…Nor Does She Believe He Knew Her Husband.

Oops.

Enter Into The Picture A Viscous Land-Snatcher (MARK HARMON)…

…And His Little Army Of Gun-Toting Henchmen…

…And The Stage Becomes Set For All-Out-Get-Out!

Will TOM SELLECK Take Care Of Business?

Will TOM SELLECK Get The Girl AND The Land??

Will TOM SELLECK Adopt ME???

Hmm.

The First Two Questions You’ll Find Answers To In The Flick.

😉

The Third Question…

…Well…

…I Ain’t THAT Lucky.

😦

(But We Already Knew That, Didn't We!?)

😀

Yes Yes Yes, My Peeps…

…It Has Been A Fine Day Thus Far.

Good Walk In The Early Morning Hours…

…Followed By Back-To-Back TOM SELLECK!!!

Sound Good To YOU???

SOUNDS GREAT TO ME!!!

😀     😀

Random Movie Mention Double-Shot Edition: “THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM” (1961 And 1991)

So Which One Is Your Favorite???

“THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM“

(1961)

…Starring…

VINCENT PRICE

??? ??? ???

Or…

“THE PIT AN THE PENDULUM“

(1991)

…Starring…

LANCE HENRIKSEN

??? ??? ???

??? ???

???

?

Well…

…I’m VERY SURE Y’all Already Know MY Answer.

If It’s A Horror/Thriller Film…

…And It Stars…

VINCENT PRICE

…Then It’s VERY LIKELY To Be A Personal Fave-Fave Of Mine, Fo SHO!

However…

…It’s Honestly Hard To Compare The Two Flicks.

They’re Both VASTLY Different.

The 1961 Version Was Produced AND Directed By…

ROGER CORMAN

("The Fall Of The House Of Usher" "Battle Beyond The Stars" "The Tower Of London" etc etc)

…The Master Of Schlock Film-Making…

…And It’s A WONDERFUL Adaptation Of The…

EDGAR ALLAN POE

…Story.

It Doesn’t Go Over-The-Top, And Relies Heavily On The Unknown.

The 1991 Version Was Directed By…

STUART GORDON

("Re-Animator" "Castle Freak" "Fortress" etc etc)

…The Master Of Over-The-Top Film-Making…

…And He TOTALLY Goes Way Way WAY Over-The-Top With This One.

*** *** ***

I Really Do GREATLY Enjoy Both Flicks, Sure Sure.

However…

…The 1961 Version Has Won A Special Place In My Heart As One Of THE MOST Fun Horror/Thriller Flicks EVER.

The 1991 Version Is Pretty Fun…

…But It’s Just Not As Much Fun As The 1961 Version.

Like I Said, Though…

…They’re Two VASTLY Different Flicks.

In The 1961 Version…

VINCENT PRICE

…Is A Man Being Driven Insane By The Thought That His Wife Was Buried Alive And That She Now Haunts Him And Their Home.

Check Out This Tagline:

("BETRAYAL CUTS BOTH WAYS!")

!!! !!! !!!

I Know, Right!!!

I Love It, Also!!!

For My Money…

…It’s Hard To Beat The…

VINCENT PRICE & ROGER CORMAN

…Combo.

They Worked Together Many Times, And This Is One Of Their Best.

.Period.

As For The 1991 Version…

…It’s Completely Different.

In Fact, The Only Thing That’s Really The Same Between The Two Flicks…

…

…

…Is…

…

…

…The PENDULUM Itself.

Well…

…And They Both Take Place In Spain.

But The1961 Version Takes Place AFTER The Spanish Inquisition.

The 1991 Version Takes Place DURING The Spanish Inquisition.

BUT…

…The 1991 Version Is Simply JAMMED-PACKED With Familiar Faces, Including…

…The Star…

LANCE HENRIKSEN

…But Also…

JEFFREY COMBS

TOM TOWELS

…And Even…

OLIVER REED

!!! !!! !!!

Totally, My Peeps.

I So Agree.

Nifty Little Cast For A Brutal, Bloody Horror Flick.

Some Of My Faves, Fo SHO!

Especially…

JEFFREY COMBS

…Who Has Been In Almost Every Film Directed By…

STUART GORDON

…And The Same Goes For…

TOM TOWELS

…Of Course!!!

The 1991 Version Is Mainly About A Young Woman Who Has Been Falsely Accused Of Witchcraft…

…And Now She’s Been Brought Before THE GRAND INQUISITOR…

…Played To PSYCHO-FREAKY-TWISTED-PERFECTION By…

LANCE HENRIKSEN

…Who Always Has Been…

…And Always Will Be…

…A Personal FAVE-FAVE Actor Of ALL-TIME, Fo Flippin’ SHO!!!

The Meat And Potatoes Of The 1991 Version Is TORTURE!!!

And NO, I Don’t Mean It’s Been A Torture To Watch It…

…I Mean It’s ALL ABOUT TORTURE!!!

It’s Kinda Wildly CRAZY As To Just How Much Torture They Pack Into This 97-Minute Flick.

And It’s GORY-GORY And Totally BRUTAL…

…But In A Fun, Twisted Sort Of Way.

😉

*** *** ***

So My Peeps…

…Any Way You Slice It…

“THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM“

…Is A Helluva Lot Of Fun…

…Whether You’re Watching The 1961 Version…

…Or The 1991 Version.

I Totally Prefer The 1961…

VINCENT PRICE & ROGER CORMAN

…Edition…

…But I DO Enjoy The 1991…

LANCE HENRIKSEN & STUART GORDON

…Edition.

I’ll Leave It All Up To You, My Peeps, As To Just Which Version YOU Like Most.

Either Way It Goes…

…I TOTALLY Recommend Y’all To See BOTH Versions.

Okie The Dokie???

COOL BEANS, KIDS!!!

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND, Fo SHO!!!

Try To Squeeze-In A Flick Or Two.

Trust Me…

…You’ll Thank Me For It Later.

😉

😀

Come And Get It!!! Your Weekend CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT Double-Shot Is Reeeaaady!!!

So, My Peeps…

…I Kinda Got Myself Into Mental…

“HIGHLANDER“

…Mode, Last Night.

Ended-Up Watching A Couple Of Them Back2Back.

Then I Remembered I Hadn’t Done My…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…Double-Sh0t!!!

So…

…Here We Are…

…And We Shall Begin With…

“HIGHLANDER 2: THE QUICKENING“

(1991)

Starring CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT, MICHAEL IRONSIDE, And SEAN CONNERY!!!

…Though I Honestly, MAJORLY Prefer The Version Shown Below.

||

\\//

\/

><><><><><><><><><><

Our Tagline?

("It's Time For A New Kind Of Magic.")

This Flick…

“HIGHLANDER 2: THE QUICKENING“

…Can Be VERY Difficult To Follow.

It’s A Combo Of  BOTH…

…PREQUEL And SEQUEL…

…As It Moves Back-N-Forth Through Time.

We Do Find-Out WHERE The Immortals Really Come-From.

We Find-Out WHAT Happens To An Immortal When He Has No Other Immortals Left To Kill.

We Find-Out HOW We Can Make…

SEAN CONNERY

…Return To Us From Oblivion.

😉

BUT…

…Mostly…

…We’re Left KNOWING This Flick Simply RAN-OUT-OF-MONEY…

…And Was Hastily Slapped-Together And Run-Out-There BEFORE It Was Honestly Ready.

😦

The “THEATRICAL VERSION” Was A CRAZY MESS From MOVIE HELL!!!

The “RENEGADE VERSION” Does Help Us A BUNDLE, Fo SHO, Though You Can Still Tell Some Of The Film Simply Never Got Made.

If You’re A Lover Of…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…And…

The “HIGHLANDER” Franchise

…Then You’ve Likely Seen Both Versions.

And I Sincerely Doubt ANY Of Y’all Wouldn’t Have My Back In My Preceding Statements.

“HIGHLANDER 2: THE QUICKENING“

…Is A Fun…

…Kinda Campy…

…Throwaway Of A Flick…

…That I SINCERELY DO ENJOY!

Just Do Me A Solid, My Peeps.

If You DON’T LIKE IT…

…No Worries, PLEASE.

Most People DON’T LIKE IT One-Damned-Bit.

><><><><><><><><><><

As For The Second-Helping Of Our Double-Shot…

…We’re Gonna Quickly Discuss…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT‘s

…Exit From The “HIGHLANDER” Flicks…

“HIGHLANDER: ENDGAME“

(2000)

…Which Co-Starred…

ADRIAN PAUL

(aka TV's "HIGHLANDER")

><><><><><><><><><><

Our Tagline Here, Is…

("It Will Take Two Immortals To Defeat The Ultimate Evil. But In The End, There Can Be Only One.")

😀

Fans Of The “HIGHLANDER” Franchise Had Been Waiting A Long, Long-While For CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT And ADRIAN PAUL To Join Forces On The Big Screen.

In 2000, That Finally Happened!

You Can Tell The Production Company DID Put More Time AND Effort Into This Flick…

…Though It Honestly COULD HAVE BEEN So So So Much BETTER.

I’m Not Going To Reveal Too Much About This One…

…Since Any True Revelations About It Would Likely Destroy Your Reasons For WATCHING-IT In The First Place.

What I Can Say…

…Is…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…And…

ADRIAN PAUL

…DO Do Justice To Their Characters…

…As They Battle…

…THE MOST EVIL…

…And…

…THE MOST DANGEROUS…

…Of ALL The Immortals!

This Flick…

“HIGHLANDER: ENDGAME“

…Is VERY Fun…

…While It DOES Have Its Own Little Moment Of MAJOR-LEAGUE TEAR-JERKERY!!!

Trust Me, My Peeps…

…You’ll Know What I Mean When The Moment Comes.

Hell…

…I CRIED…

…So I’m Sure One OR Two Of Y’all Will Do The Same.

><><><><><><><><><><

I Sincerely Hope Y’all Have Had A Decent Weekend, Thus Far.

Do What Y’all Can To Make The Remainder Of It As Decent As Possible.

L8r On, My Peeps!

😀

T’is The Weekend… So How’z ’bout Your CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT Double-Shot!?!?!

This Weekend…

…We’re Talkin’ 1995!!!

When You Mix…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…And…

1995

…We’re Left With A Couple FAN-FAVES!!!

First-Up…

“THE HUNTED“

"THE HUNTED" (1995) Starring CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT, JOHN LONE, and JOAN CHEN!!!

If You Think You’ve Seen’em All…

…In Regard To…

“WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME“

…Story-Lines…

…Then You Haven’t Seen…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…In…

“THE HUNTED“

.Period.

He Hooks-Up With A Hot-Chick…

…Only To Witness Her Murder…

…And To Be The Only Living Person To Have Seen The Face Of The Assassin.

Thing Is…

…This Assassin Is A NINJA-CULT-LEADER!!!

And NOW The HUNT Is ON!!!

They Want…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

...As DEAD As The Proverbial Door-Nail…

…And He’s ON-THE-RUN.

We’re Talking FAST PACED…

…FULL-ON MARTIAL-ARTS ACTION, My Peeps!!!

And The CLIMAX?!?!?

Well…

…I Ain’t Here To Spoil It…

…But It’s WONDERFULLY-LAMBERTESQUE!!!

You WILL NOT Be Disappointed, Fo SHO!!!

!!! !!! !!!

!!! !!!

And Then, Of Course…

“MORTAL KOMBAT“

"MORTAL KOMBAT" (1995) Starring CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT, ROBIN SHOU, and CARY-HIROYUKI TAGAWA!!!

As For…

“MORTAL KOMBAT“

…What More Is There To Say?

The Bulk Of Y’all, My Peeps, My Reading Audience…

…Grew-Up With This Game…

…And It’s Many Successors.

The First Time I Saw…

“MORTAL KOMBAT“

…I Was Actually A Bit Pissed.

I Felt…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…Was Totally Wasted.

He’s One Of THE MOST UNDERRATED ACTORS In MOTION PICTURE HISTORY…

…And He Gets Saddled With A Role Where He Doesn’t Get To Do Much Of Anything.

BUT…

…He Is STILL…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT

…And He DOES Totally Bring The HEART And SOUL To…

“MORTAL KOMBAT“

.Period.

It’s A Fun Flick, Sure.

It’s Got Some Pretty Amazing Fight-Scenes.

It’s Well Crafted.

It’s Well Paced.

And It’s Even A Pretty Daring Adaptation Of The Popular Video-Game.

My Only Issue…

…As Stated Before…

…Is…

I WANTED MORE LAMBERT!!!

MORE MORE MORE!!! !!! !!!

Is This One Going To Go Down In The Annals Of Film History As A Great Triumph?

Nah.

Is It STILL One Of The BEST Video-Game-Adaptations The 1990s Had To Offer Us?

YOU BETCHA, BUSTER!!!

So…

…When Watching…

“MORTAL KOMBAT“

…Remember This:

Come For The Film…

…Stay For…

CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT!!!

That’s What I Did.

And It Worked-Out Rather Well, Actually.

😉

HAVE FUN WITH THESE TWO, My Peeps.

THAT’S WHAT THEY’RE FOR!!!

!!! !!! !!!

Who Is ROBERT QUARRY? A Special DOUBLE-SHOT Edition

Alright…

…I Know…

…I Know…

…Most Of Y’all Haven’t The Foggiest As To Just…

…WHO…

ROBERT QUARRY

…IS.

.Period.

||
||
||

\\//

\/

/\

//\\

||

||

||

THAT’s HIM!!!

Yes, My Peeps…

ROBERT QUARRY

…IS…

“COUNT YORGA“

 !!! !!! !!!

I’ve Been A HUGE Fan Of…

“COUNT YORGA“

…Since Early On In My Childhood.

In Fact…

…My Father Used To Call ME…

“COUNT YORGA“

…When I Would Sleep Rather Late Into The Day.

It Honestly ALWAYS Made Me Laugh.

“Well, Count Yorga, Glad You’re Up!“

…He Would Say.

And I’d Just Shake My Head…

…And I’d Giggle…

…And I’d Smile.

🙂

You See, My Peeps…

…There Were…

…TWO…

“COUNT YORGA“

…Flicks.

The First Flick…

“COUNT YORGA, VAMPIRE“

(1970)

…Introduces Us To The Character.

He’s A Modern-Day Vampire.

A Count From Bulgaria.

And He’s Preying Upon The Citizens Of Los Angeles!

In The End…

…We Think Him Dead.

HOWEVER…

…It Simply Wasn’t True.

The Very Next Year…

…HE WAS BACK…

…In…

“THE RETURN OF COUNT YORGA“

(1971)

!!! !!! !!!

I Fell Deeply In Love With The…

“COUNT YORGA“

…Flicks When I First Saw Them Back In The 1980s.

Eventually…

…They Finally Released THIS…

||

||

||

\\//

\/

/\

//\\

||
||
||

…And I Plunked-Down My Money So SO FAST!!!

I’d Wanted My Very Own Copies Of BOTH Flicks So SO BADLY…

…That I Simply Couldn’t Help Myself!!!

(Side Note: THANK YOU Amazon.com !!!)

Anyway, My Peeps…

…I Just Sincerely Felt These Two Flicks Rightly DESERVED A Quickie Mentioning.

Even More-So, I Felt…

ROBERT QUARRY

…DESERVED Some LOVE Himself.

He’s Gone Now.

He Passed Away In 2009, At The Ripe-Old-Age Of 83.

BUT…

…For MYSELF…

…And OTHER FANS Like MYSELF…

…His Legacy In The Annals Of HORROR-FILM-HISTORY Is VERY SECURE.

And…

…Don’t Fret, My Peeps…

…These Aren’t The Only Two Flicks He Made.

So I’m Already VERY SURE He’s Gonna Get Some Sweet-Sweet-Lovin’ Again From THIS Blogger.

However…

…No Role He Played Was As Famous/Popular As…

“COUNT YORGA“

.PERIOD.

After You See Them Both…

…I’m VERY VERY SURE You’ll Understand WHY!!!

!!! !!! !!!

😀
