A memorable shot indeed, although the shot just before Barnabas enters the room of Julia smoking, having spent herself in rage and frustration, completely exhausted emotionally, was even more unforgettable.

I unfortunately don't have the means currently to post the episodes.  Maybe someday...

G.

MB, you are truly a DOLL.  thank you thank you thank you!  *swoons*

Grayson and Thayer are on fire together in this scene.  If only, if only, the rest of the movie had been on this level.  I do look forward to the movie being released on disc precisely for this scene and a few other moments, such as the Old House sequence with Julia confronting Barnabas, Grayson and Thayer's kitchen/lab scene, the costume ball etc.

G.

Golly.  This was practically my last hope that Grayson's OLTL episodes would ever see the light of day...

G.

Happy Birthday Darling!  Hope you enjoyed a beautiful day.

hugs, Steve

Maybe they can film it using Pixar bobble-heads.  That would certainly give an entertaining twist to the 3-D factor.  They'll love it in Peoria and think of the action figures!

cheers, G. still repeating his mantra:  NoDS restoration out on DVD (with extras)!

Fans of the 1795 storyline will catch a glimpse of a familiar image (involving blonde beauty Annette Vadim, a torn, blood-stained dress, and a mirror) in this trailer of Roger Vadim's 1960 classic Blood and Roses:

I wonder where this fan got hold of the trailer. I've heard of a laserdisc release from Japan (?) which may be the source.  The trailer wasn't on the crappy EP VHS release from Paramount in the early 1990s, and the color on the trailer is much more vivid than the washed-out palette of the print Paramount presented in their US VHS release.

This brings back fond memories for those of us old enough to have been around back when this was "the cerebral fan's alternative" to Famous Monsters:

I think of this painting as "Barnabas and the Leviathan Queen"--perhaps even Carolyn as she would have been after her "transformation"?

If you go back to the gallery of other mag covers for this zine from the Sixties, you'll see that images of Barnabas figured several times over the years in the cover layout.

Enjoy!
