Penny darling, that painting looks like my very own concept of Heaven!

ghoulishly,

Rawk!  what a deliciously ELDRITCH brew you concoct... and the humor is so delightfully reminiscent of our beloved Horror Host/esses of Yore!

Love the Barnabas portrait in the Uncle Chester sequence, too!  You know how to warm the cockles of an old Fan's heart!

The invocation of Lilith actually reminded me of some of our own Angelique's more fervent incantations...

Best of Luck with the new season!  Wow, and there are DVDs too.  Must go see!

cheers, GothEEEEEK

Further on deleted scenes from NoDS--I got out the DS Movie Book this past weekend and was reading NoDS cinematographer Richard Shore's fascinating description of a Quentin/Angelique lovemaking sequence that was filmed in the swimming pool with lots of "trippy" lighting and effects.  Stills exist, but the sequence itself was deleted from the MGM release print.  This is all detailed in Darren Gross' excellent article about the making of the two DS features.

Anyone out there remember whether the swimming pool makeout sequence is among the footage that was recovered by Darren?

I did happen to find the part in the script for the piano sequence and smirked all over again at the interchange between Laura and Ange.  Ange is so catty when she says "Laura my darling..."

I just have to comment,  as regards the recent grouping of images up to and including today's (Friday 10/30):  who in the right mind has a lynching/hanging in their front yard and then leaves the corpse just hanging there, to rot and moulder, FOR DAYS?  Apart from anything else, the smell, not to mention the slowly dropping body parts covered in maggots and pecked at by carrion, must have been horrific.

Even by the loopy standards of the Collins family (and remember, "hypocrisy above all!" IS the family motto according to Mrs. Carolyn Stoddard Hawkes), this is just way, WAY out there. 

And they were always depicted as being so averse to publicity... whatever passed for the local paper would have had a field day.  Can't you just see the scare quote headlines: "CORPSE OF COLLINS STRUMPET BIGGEST BOOST TO LOCAL TOURISM IN DECADES, MAYOR SAYS."

Ah, the team of Dan Curtis and Sam Hall....

What fun.  I enjoyed hearing his latest update--there's something very innocent about the idea of Mr. Frid entertaining himself at home paging through his edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica...

G.

Misterioso darling, YOU are priceless for re-posting that previous day's capture here--I'd missed it as I was not online for most of the weekend.

Poor Clarice!  I could speculate on what hit her, but I won't.  (At least on THIS picture, we know that the infamous Roger Davis and his actress-shoving ways had nothing to do with it!)

G.

May I just say again that I am LOVING these images.  In the scene shown for today (10/26/2009), I'm seeing people I NEVER saw before, either because my laserdisc print is p & s, or because I was always so focused on Angelique and Sarah when watching this that I didn't get to catch the different expressions of the people around them. 

Love the respective looks on the faces of Clarice and Diana.  And is it just me, or is Selby's pose practically pornographic??

Hats off once more, MB!

cheers, G.
