😁

Sean Bean and Elizabeth Hurley in Sharpe, so 90s, so tempting.

Therefore Review 📀✌🏻🍿@thereforereview· 28d

"If he were such a patriotic American, why didn't he just report us to the authorities? He decided to put his information to good use and make a little money out of it. What could be more American than that?" Who knew that Clue would be giving such commentary on 2026. 🤦🏻‍♀️🎬🖤

Tim Curry as Wadsworth the Butler in clue with the repeated like that communism was just a red herring. This movie is some how spot on in speaking to 2026. They're not communists, their capitalists and they're going to sell our secrets to the highest bidder. Such an excellent script that keeps on giving. We're all thoroughly un-American!

Because everyone is going to be posting their "I'm going to see The Odyssey!" pics #filmsky, it's important to remind everyone that we could have already had this movie with Sean Bean. thankyouforcomingtomytedtalk 🎬

Sean Bean as Odysseus in Troy which should have given us a sequel with Sean Bean because The Odyssey was right there but alas no. Troy thought it was going to be historical badass and not have the gods and fantasy to the swords but then 300 came along and said watch this and now every movie has to look like 300. So, in short, many wrongs were had when we could have The Odyssey with Sean Bean instead. Thank you. Why the fuck does everyone have to take pictures of the movie screen title card to prove they are there watching Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey now? When I was a kid, you didn't say 'pics or it didn't happen' just because you went to the movies.

"...Sam Neill's complex performance of magic mixed with humanity, regret, and meddling is the pinnacle as we feel for Merlin & sympathize for what is to come..." Merlin (1998) Sam Neill retro #television review at I Think, Therefore I Review: ithinkthereforeireview.blogspot.com/2010/06/merl...

Sam Neill and Isabella Rossellini in fun medieval get ups for the 1998 Merlin, a mature well done television special believe it or not.

Late Bee Gee Robin Gibb dressed in black in his garden with his caravan wagon and his giant Irish wolfhound dog that's bigger than he is.

Terrible laptop camera snap of my Torti cat annoyed that I disturbed her while she's trying to watch The Birds. 😸

Every day is Caturday when you have a toritude cat like this who was annoyed by my terrible snap of her trying to watch The Birds in peace like any respectable chonky muffin girl cat.

More Behind the Scenes of The Marshal from director Andrew Baird's insta with Guy Pearce on the piano. I miss when we had DVDs filled with things like this! 🖤 For #filmsky folks who haven't heard Pearce sing & play guitar, A Slipping Down Life is a great little movie where he does the soundtrack. 🎬

Get yourself the Tod Browning Criterion set #filmsky 🎬📀🖤

The Tod Browning sideshow criterion set featuring Freaks, The Unknown, and The Mystic. Lon Chaney is excellent! I'll stop there because otherwise I will fill up the entire box with praise. Get the physical media always if you are able!

Ever heard of the Weekly World News? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

Weekly World News vintage tabloid cover with Duck Hunter Shoots Angel exclusive and Bat Boy news updates alongside psychic tips. I think my favorite headline was 'Mermaid found in can of tuna fish'

amirite? 🖤

Delia and Otho in Beetlejuice shocked at the small closet space and country cute decor of the Maitlands' house so with disdain, Otho asks to be delivered from L.L. Bean, and I can totally relate to his mood thanks to all the current rah rah Americana that is just downright terrible.

Lon Chaney in The Unknown is an acting masterclass. 🎬

It's the ill-fated hotelier Mr. Wells from the First episode of Dark Shadows! 😁

Conrad Bain of Diff'rent Strokes fame in an early black and white appearance on the first episode of Dark Shadows as the hotel clerk Mr. Wells. He appears a few times before being attacked and killed by the werewolf. Oh well, that's how things roll on Dark Shadows.

Films used to have Joey Pants in them! We need these vibes again please. 😁🖤🎬

Joey Pants himself reuniting with his Bound costars Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly in a hot tub where cigars and good times were surely had hot damn. We need more of these people onscreen with these kinds of vibes yes please save us from our conservative overlords.

I laughed out loud when @vampirevideos.co.uk ask my permission to Tales from the Cryptify an Instagram picture of me for the Recrypted podcast Promos! 🤣🖤🦇 Follow their Season 1 Episodes at www.instagram.com/recryptedpod/

Me in an old Instagram photo with me made creepy jewelry that the wonderful folks and artists at Vampire Videos have magically made look comic book demented in the spirit of Tales from the Crypt! You can hear me chat about Season 1 on their Recrypted podcast. It was a lot of fun and we take these bemusing horror comedy joys where we can find them. Thank you for listening!

Almost have my Neighbours rant down to 8 pages! I know a lot's missing in my notes. A healthier me probably would've done write ups by year instead of just lumping 85-89 all together. If I feel up to it, I may do a video follow up in the future #TVsky #Neighbours fans, soap lovers! 😁📝💪🏻🖤

Another bonkers tease of Guy Pearce in the upcoming The Marshal from director Andrew Baird. Love a little behind the scenes insta to get me thru another tough week #filmsky. I miss featurettes on DVDs! Will this be available on DVD? They've taken so much from us. 🖤💪🏻🎬

Guy Pearce in some kind of hazy film shot with something around his neck in a snippet from the upcoming film The Marshal posted on director Andrew Baird's instagram discussing the editing of the film in progress. It's sad we have to troll insta for behind the scenes info. We used to get filmmaking treats all the time and I dig that ish. I hope this movie is good!

Oh no, Trask catches Quentin manacling himself! 🤣 #NowWatching Dark Shadows 🖤

The werewolf Quentin is chaining himself up with the gypsy Magda's help but their enemy Trask catches them in flagrante playing with the manacles because that's how Dark Shadows rolls.

Absolutely terrible happenings here! Thought I'd continue the Guy Pearce rewatch but I need a comfort movie sans death/violence/animal scares/child perils. So of Pearce's filmography that leaves....Dating the Enemy? Turns out the dark & heavy reasons to like him as an actor aren't so comforting. 🤦🏻‍♀️🖤💪🏻

Since I mentioned The Last Man on Earth in my Top 10 Vincent Price, here is my retro full length review of The Omega Man. Vampire liberties are taken & there's a lot of 70s datedness but still some great SF statements. Read more #filmsky: ithinkthereforeireview.blogspot.com/2017/04/the-...

If they're undead spirits why are they in brownface? Why didn't they have some kind of green ghostly look? Dark Shadows does a lot of great, coded progressive things but the gypsy cliches are one of the few times the show is dated & off its time. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #NowWatching #Horrorfamily #DarkShadows 🖤

an undead gypsy spirit trial on Dark Shadows where the ghosts are still inexplicably brownface rather than you know a more ghostly pallor. One of the few times Dark Shadows is of the 60s attitudes in the stereotypes despite some of the good horror happenings

😁🖤🎬

Vincent Price in a white suit and wild afro disguise of a great Shakespearean revenge to do in Theatre of Blood. Excellent film. One of Price's best because he is the master at camp and character and costume accentuating performance. All the Bard the better!

Is there a Patriot Games joke in here somewhere? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣
