Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Shadow of a Doubt is great. Both for Charlie's character and an almost Lynchian darkness-in-a-small-town vibe.

"It's all in the wrist."
I mean - really: Martin Landau as BELA LUGOSI? What's not to absolutely, whole-heartedly ADORE about that combo.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
As JUNKIE BELA LUGOSI, no less!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What's not to absolutely, whole-heartedly ADORE about that combo.
In interviews Landau talked about how difficult it was for him physically because he's all teeth, and Lugosi's mouth was always a gaping, black hole. Love that attention to detail in his performance.
Plus his vigorous attack on the rubber octopus.
I love the soundtrack too: Bongos and Theremin! Genius.

"Boris Karloff? FUCK YOU!"
"I want to hear you call Karloff a cocksucker again." "SHHH! We want these Baptists to like us!"

I know. I've been thinking about that all morning, Drew.
I've made some changes to my part of the conversation. And if others who directly reference my posts could do similar, I'd appreciate it.
