I am compelled to go simply because it's DARK SHADOWS! I still remember watching it after school, up in my mom's room.
I totally want to do absinthe just the way Johnny Depp does in From Hell. In a bathtub like that.
Oh, look at the pretties!

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Funnily enough, that is the scene that is on right now. Adding laudanum to your absinthe? That is hardcore.

I have never seen an episode of Dark Shadows. I pretty much stayed away from the horror genre entirely prior to watching Buffy. However, I just looked at the cast list on IMDB, and I will definitely be watching that movie.

Oh, I forgot the laudanum. I might, you know, skip that part. Depending on my day.
I love that movie so much, and it's really so bad. But it's so pretty to look at. And, you know, Johnny Depp being angsty and other and tortured.

I just checked and Tinker Tailor Soilder Spy is opening here tomorrow! I must drag TCG to see it this weekend.

I've drunk absinthe in a clawfoot tub, in that decadent hotel room I had for the Washington F2F.
Of course, that made my bloodstream absorb the alcohol twice as fast and I was sloppy drunk by the time I'd packed and gone down to the restaurant. When I left after lunch and saw the guy with a bear cub on a leash outside, it took a moment before I realized I wasn't hallucinating. (National Geographic had offices next door, and they were going to have a photo shoot.)

I had to read that twice to see if you were in SF or somewhere else to make sure which mental image I should have of a bear cub.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Suzi is, apparently, me.
Oh. BEAR bear.
