Abel Ferrara’s films have been such a crucial part of my cinematic education for roughly thirty-five years now. Since seeing King of New York (1990), I’ve been a fan of the New York auteur, especially his early career films, from Driller Killer (1979) up through The Funeral (1996). For me, those nearly two decades are … Continue reading Favorite Film Posters: Ms. 45
Hot Shots of the Week: Rihanna Returns
Last year we put Rihanna to work when she briefly subbed for a vacationing Yvette. Well, she’s back as the subject of this week’s featured Hot Shots, and she was kind enough to model a little something from her lingerie company Savage X Fenty. She’s a giver, that Rihanna.
Random Image Dump #50
How on earth do you celebrate a momentous occasion like the fiftieth Random Image Dump?? Well, by regurgitating fifty old images from throughout the six year history of this site and pretending it’s something new—or not pretending at all because I’m spelling it out right anyway.

Hot Shots of the Week: Carla Gugino Would Like a Word

I’ve been plowing through the Harley Quinn animated series on HBO. I’m absolutely loving it, especially how hilarious, twisted, raunchy, and R rated it can be. If you’re going to do Harley Quinn right, you have to bring the vulgarity, and this series does it well. Kaley Cuoco voices Harley and she does something I … Continue reading Harley
Hot Shots of the Week: Carrie On
She loves literature and lingerie equally, because she’s deep and complicated. They’re most definitely not going to laugh at her. Stephen King’s debut novel Carrie was published on this day in 1974. Famously, the manuscript for Carrie was rescued from the trash bin by King’s wife Tabitha after ol’ Uncle Stevie tossed it out in … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Carrie On
Favorite Film Posters: Adventures in Babysitting
American artist and illustrator Drew Struzan, who passed away last fall, left an indelible imprint on popular culture, thanks to the many memorable movie posters he created. I could list so many of them as favorites—The Thing (1982), Back to the Future (1985), Big Trouble in Little China (1986)—but my artistic and sentimental favorite* has … Continue reading Favorite Film Posters: Adventures in Babysitting
