Lost and Found: Doom Asylum

First, a quick note: this review was written to evoke the delightfully lowbrow spirit of freewheeling fun from late night, cult movie show hosts (thank you, Elvira, Rhonda, and Joe Bob!) and glorious B-movie sites ( thank you, B-Movie Enema and House of Self Indulgence, to name just two!). I leaned into the over the … Continue reading Lost and Found: Doom Asylum →

Margot Monday

Monday morning check-in: yup, can confirm, still wolfish for Margot Robbie. To help satisfy our collective Monday munchies, let’s enjoy these appetizing shots of Margot as Harley Quinn, from Suicide Squad (2016).

Hot Shots of the Week: Get Outta My Dreams, Get into My Car

In 2015, actress and singer Kayslee Collins posed with a classic Jaguar for a high-octane Playboy photoshoot. With Collins doing a retro, Marilyn Monroe thing—platinum blonde hair and seductively parted cherry-red lips— these photos should come with the warning label, “Danger: Flammable.” The 5’9”, absurdly leggy Collins gives new meaning to the phrase “legs for … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Get Outta My Dreams, Get into My Car →
