“What Are You Now, Afraid Of A Little Insanity?! Since When Have We Been Sane?!” –BORGOFF MARKUS (“Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust” (2000))

“VAMPIRE HUNTER D:BLOODLUST” Is Simply The Very VERY Best Of The Best In Terms Of Coolness! It’s My Favorite Anime Of The 2000s, And Possibly My Very Favorite Anime Of All-Time! What A Way To Wake-Up, Eh?! Good Stuff, My Peeps, Fo SHO!!! 😀

(Not So) Random (Blu-ray) Movie Mention: “ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER” (2012)

Alright…

…So I Did Get ’round To Watching (On The Blu-ray)…

“ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER“

…And…

…Well…

…What Can I Say?!

Hmm.

Well…

…Honestly…

…I Had Fun.

Perhaps Even MORE Fun Than I Rightly Should Have.

Was It A Good Film?

Nah.

Not Really.

Was It A Sufficiently Sufficient “B-Movie”/Action/Horror/Schlock Flick?

Yeah.

Actually, It Was.

🙂

Is It Gonna Win An “Oscar”?

Nah.

Not At All.

Is It Gonna Get A Couple “Razzie” Noms?

Yeah.

Actually, It (likely) Will.

🙂

Do I Appear To Give A Rat’s Ass Either Way?

Nah.

Not Really.

Does That In Any Way Take Away From The Cheesy Pleasure I Received From Checking-It-Out?

NOT. AT. ALL.

Period.

😀

It Is Was It Is…

…It Is What It Was…

…It Is What It’ll Always Be…

…Cheese-Tastic.

Is That EXACTLY What I Expected It To Be?

Yep.

TOTALLY!

😀

What?!

Oh, Like You Really Had High Hopes!!

You KNOW You Didn’t.

You KNEW What It Was Going To Be.

And It Was EXACTLY That.

Cheese-Tastic.

Period.

I’ve Seen Worse Flicks, Fo SHO, My Peeps.

I Loved RUFUS SEWELL As The Big Baddie Vamp “Adam”…

…So That’s Nifty.

Mr. SEWELL Has Always Been A Personal Fave Of Mine.

A Very VERY Underrated Actor, To Say The Least.

He Helps The Flick Succeed Much More-So Than It Would Have Otherwise.

Or So I Believe.

THE BOTTOM LINE:

“ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER“

…Is…

…Was…

…Always Will Be…

…BETTER…

…Than A Poke-In-The-Eye…

…With A Sharp-Stick…

…In A K-Mart Parking-Lot.

That’s Good Enough, Right?!

Riiight.

Good Enough, Indeed.

😉       😀       🙂

What’s On Now?! “The DEATHMASTER” (1972)

Well, My Peeps…

…I Did Warn Y’all A While Back That…

ROBERT QUARRY

…Would Be Making Another Appearance Here On…

"You Jivin' Me, Turkey?"

Today…

…I’m Gonna Give You The Rundown On His 1972 Horror Classic…

“The DEATHMASTER“

!!! !!!!! !!!

These Days…

…It Seems Like No One Has Heard Of…

ROBERT QUARRY

…Let Alone His Work.

Remember, My Peeps…

ROBERT QUARRY

…Is Also…

“COUNT YORGA“

??? ????? ???

Remember That???

Remember That At All???

See…

…I Didn’t Think You Did.

Well…

ROBERT QUARRY

…Also Played…

“KHORDA“

…A Totally Different Style Of VAMPIRE!!!

😀

The Word Most Commonly Used Would Have To Be “GURU”, Fo SHO.

He Waltzes About…

…Wearing A Flowing Robe…

…Sporting Long Hair AND A Goatee…

…And He Has An Irresistible Appeal To The Youthful Hippies That Become His Disciples.

Disciples That He Soon Changes Into A Personal Cult Of VAMPIRES!!!

ROBERT QUARRY

…Totally Does His Part Justice In…

“The DEATHMASTER“

…And Makes…

…What Would Be A Merely So So Flick…

…Much MUCH More Enjoyable!

😀

“The DEATHMASTER“

…Is Totally A Flick I’d Call A Totally Forgotten Classic.

If You Enjoy Your HORROR With A Side-Dish Of CHEESE…

…Plus A Nifty “GURU” Thrown Into The Mix…

…Then…

“The DEATHMASTER“

…Could Be Right Up Your Proverbial Alley!!!

So Why Not Give This One A Go, My Peeps?!

What’s The Worst That Could Happen?!

You Don’t Like It.

That’s All.

You’ve ALL Watched Flicks Before You Turned Out To NOT Enjoy…

…Right???

RIGHT!!!

That’s Your Lone Risk Here, My Peeps.

It Clocks In UNDER 90-Minutes!

You Can Afford To Use Up That Much Time…

…Right???

RIGHT!!!

“The DEATHMASTER“

…Isn’t As Good As…

“COUNT YORGA, VAMPIRE“

…But It’s Still A Fun Little Romp So Far As 1970s Horror Goes.

So Check It Out, My Peeps.

If You Like It…

…GREAT!!!

If You DON’T Like It…

…SO WHAT!!!

😉

Hope The Morning Is Kicking-Off Right For Y’all.

My Morning Began VERY Early…

…So I’m Feelin’ A Walk Comin’ On.

I’ve Gotta Wake-Up This Sleepy Body.

Pester Y’all Throughout The Day, Kiddies!

😀

(Not So) Random Movie Mention: “THE BATMAN Vs DRACULA” (2005)

Well…

…Since I’m Trying To Force Myself Into Coming Back And Getting Some Actual Work Done…

…I Figured This Would Be A Great Place To Start.

Being A Huge Fan Of All The Animated Batman Series…

…I Decided To Cherry-Pick My Fave Of Faves.

I’m Unsure How Many Of You Have Seen…

“THE BATMAN Vs DRACULA“

…But It’s One That’s Made Truly For The Batfans!!!

How About This Little Tagline:

"GOTHAM CITY SLEEPS UNDER THE COVER OF DARKNESS WHILE TWO LEGENDARY BATS TAKE FLIGHT."

!!! !!! !!!

😀

I Know, Right!!!

WONDERFUL!!!

Here’s Another:

"THE DARK KNIGHT. THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS. IN ONE ROYAL BATTLE!"

!!! !!! !!!

😀

Do You Really Need More To Wet Your Collective Whistles, My Peeps!?!

Good.

ME NEITHER!!!

😉

Can THE BATMAN Stop DRACULA Before He Turns All Of Gotham City Into A Roving Band Of Bloodthirsty VAMPIRES?!?!?!

Wouldn’t YOU Like To Know?!?!?!

SURE YOU WOULD!!!

😉

“THE BATMAN Vs DRACULA“

…Is A Total Blast For Fans Of The Animated Genera.

You Know Me, Kiddies…

…If It’s COOL…

…If It’s FUN…

…If It’s WONDERFULLY ENTERTAINING…

…Chances Are…

…I…

…WILL…

…LOVE IT!!!

In This Instance…

…That Holds Very VERY True!!!

Give It The Ole Once-Over, My Peeps.

Hopefully You’ll Agree With Me.

“THE BATMAN Vs DRACULA“

…Is Totally Cool Beans…

…And Totally Worth The 80+Minutes You’ll Spend With It.

And…

…Perhaps…

…Like Me…

…You’ll Wanna Watch It Again…

…And Again…

…And Again And Again And Again!!!

I Shall Be Hollering At Y’all More And More In The Coming Days, My Peeps.

I Still Feel Like Total Ass-Bag…

…But I’m On The Mend.

And It Was Really Paining Me Not Being On Here Working For Y’all.

I Love My Blog.

And I Love All The Feedback I Get From Y’all.

I Do Do This Stuff For Myself, Yes…

…But I Also Do It For All Of You.

Hopefully I’ll Be Able To Continue Crankin’ Away And Actually Get Some More Accomplished Over The Coming Weekend.

With Any Luck…

(of which I generally have none)

…I’ll Be Back Up To Snuff In No Time.

One Can Only Hope…

…Right???

RIGHT!!!

😀

What’s On Now NoW NOW??? “DAYBREAKERS” (2010)

***\/***\/***

Want The Tagline???

CAN DO!!!

("THE BATTLE FOR BLOOD BEGINS.")

!!! !!! !!!

Yeah…

…This Flick…

“DAYBREAKERS“

…Was MUCH BETTER Than I’d Originally Thought It Would Be.

I Honestly Wasn’t Sure What To Expect When Seeing It For The First Time.

The Cast Sounded GREAT With Stars Like…

ETHAN HAWKE

WILLEM DAFOE

…And…

SAM NEILL

…So That Was Originally The Selling Point For Me.

I’m A Fan Of All Three Of Those Actors…

…So I Was Rather Looking Forward To Seeing This.

And THEN I Watched It.

And It Was, As I Said, MUCH BETTER Than I Figured It Could/Would Be.

.Period.

It Takes Place In The Near Future.

2019, Actually.

The World Is Now Populated With VAMPIRES.

Only A Small Number Of Actual People-People Remain.

The Blood-Supply Of The World, That The Vamps Need, Is Dwindling.

So The Vamps Are Trying To Create A Blood-Substitute Before The World’s Blood-Supply Totally Runs Out.

TRUST ME, My Peeps…

…You’ve Not Seen A Vampire Flick Quite Like This One.

It’s Kind Of Unique, Actually.

So That Helped A Lot, Also.

I Enjoy Things That Are FRESH, And…

“DAYBREAKERS“

…Felt Pretty FRESH To Me.

It Was A SMART Flick About Vampires.

And I Do Like My Entertainment To Have Brains…

…

…

…Sometimes.

😉

SO, My Peeps…

…Why Not Give This One A Look-See, Eh?!

It’s Fun.

It’s Fresh.

It’s Pretty Damn Cool, Actually.

I Wouldn’t Be Watching It If It Weren’t Cool.

Well…

…I Mean…

…You Know…

…Cool In MY Book.

And My Book Has MANY Editions…

…And Volumes…

…And The Print Is Small…

…And The Chapters Are HUGE.

That’ll Do.

😉

😀

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!!!

!!! !!! !!!

😀

How ’bout A Movie Cocktail? M’Kay. Here’s The Ingredients…

ONE-Part “ALIENS“

+

ONE-Part “BLADE RUNNER“

+

ONE-Part “THE MATRIX“

+

ONE-Part “BLADE“

+

ONE-Part “THE SEARCHERS“

MIX-It-WELL

SERVE-It-HOT

What’Ya’Got?!?

“PRIEST“

That’s WHAT!!!

"PRIEST" (2011) Starring PAUL BETTANY, KARL URBAN, and CHRISTOPHER PLUMMER

Sooooooooo…

…WHY Are We Discussing “PRIEST“???

Well…

…Hmm…

…’cause I Wanna!?!

Yeah, That’s Part Of It.

What’s ANOTHER Reason???

I Suppose You Could Say…

…”I Consider It GOOD KARMA!”

WHY???

Because “PRIEST” Is What I Was Watching This Morning…

…When…

“You Jivin’ Me, Turkey?”

(http://youjivinmeturkey.com/)

…BROKE 6,000!!!

So…

…I Sincerely Felt…

“PRIEST“

…DESERVED A Mention.

Wouldn’t YOU???

SURE YOU WOULD!!!

😀

Paul Bettany in "PRIEST"

Honestly, My Peeps…

…I Had A BLAST Watchin’…

“PRIEST”

…FO. SHO.

Karl Urban in "PRIEST"

It Was Almost A “KITCHEN-SINK” Type Flick.

Had A Bit Of It ALL, Ya Know?!

Some Folks Told Me…

“Dude, I TOTALLY LOVED “PRIEST”!!!”

…While Others Told Me…

“Wow, Dude, I REALLY HATED “PRIEST”!!!”

…So I Really Went Into It With A TOTAL Mixed-Bag Of Thoughts.

HOWEVER…

…I LOVE IT When The Opinions ARE NOT One-Sided.

To Me, That’s How It Should ALWAYS Be.

PERIOD.

When EVERYONE Loves It…

…I Find Reasons To Dislike It.

When EVERYONE Hates It…

…I Try To Find Something To Enjoy About It.

I CANNOT STAND Being Otherwise.

That’s Just Me.

😉

With “PRIEST” I Really Didn’t Have To Look Very Hard…

…To See ALL SORTS OF THINGS…

…I Simply Found…

…HIGHLY ENJOYABLE!!!

Paul Bettany is "PRIEST" and A DAMN FINE ONE!!!

I Really REALLY Hate Giving Away Movies…

…Especially When Bloggin’ing…

…Since I KNOW Not EVERYONE Who’s Reading Along…

…Has Actually SEEN The Movies I Discuss.

I Just Enjoy Giving You The Quickie-Skinny.

Then, I Leave YOU…

(My Peeps/My Readers)

…To Make-Up Your OWN Minds.

I’m Not Writing A Review To Sway Y’all One Way Or Another.

(Side Note: I Just Turned On BLONDIE's "One Way Or Another" After Typing That Last Line 😀 hehehe)

I’m Just Sayin’ What I’m Sayin’.

Do You Feel My Jive?!?

SURE YOU DO!!!

I Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way.

"PRIEST" Was PRETTY Damned COOL... ...To ME... ...If That Means Anything. 😉

THANK YOU ALL…

…For Your Continued Support…

…For Your Continued Attention…

…And…

…For Your Continued Acceptance.

I Appreciate It More Than I Could EVER Tell Y’all.

And THAT’s THE TRUTH!!!

“I Can’t Afford The Luxury Of Anger. Anger Can Make Me Vulnerable. It Can Destroy My Reason, And Reason’s The Only Advantage I Have Over Them.” — Dr. Robert Morgan (VINCENT PRICE) (“The Last Man On Earth”)

“The Last Man On Earth” (1964) is THE BEST FILM VERSION EVER MADE From The Novel “I Am Legend” by Richard Matheson. PERIOD.

Vincent Price IS “The Last Man On Earth” and He Plays The Part TOOOOOO PERFECTION! That’s TOTALLY The MOST Glaring Reason For THIS Version’s “MY FAVE Of FAVES” Placement. PERIOD. PERIOD.

And NOW (for the third time no less) I OWN IT, AGAIN! WOOHOO!!! I (sadly) Have a Horrid Habit of Wearing-Out My DVDs. Perhaps I Should Just Go Ahead & Get Multiple-Copies of Those I Enjoy Most, Eh?!?!
