It’s Noirvember, a time to celebrate all things noir, including the 1990s noirish erotic thriller. The month is almost over and I didn’t get to do any other noir posts, so to make up for that I’ve super-sized this post.

Miami’s Babylon Club is a favorite hangout of criminal-element types in Brian De Palma’s grotesque and glorious gangster film, Scarface (1983). The Babylon is where Tony Montana (Al Pacino) first puts the moves on Elvira Hancock (Michelle Pfeiffer). Tony visits the club as a guest of drug lord Frank Lopez (Robert Loggia).

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if I got … Continue reading The Art of the Ad: Sex, Lies, and Video Games, Part IV

One of these days I hope to feature a few of those lesser known … Continue reading Lost and Found: Fair Game
Earlier this year we lost the beautiful Jane Birkin. In this photo, she’s positively radiant. More recently, we lost the talented, sexy, and lovable comedic actor and businesswoman extraordinaire, Suzanne Somers. Absolutely killer movie poster art by Bruce Timm for Dracula A.D. 1972. Timm (Batman: The Animated Series and Mad Love) expertly captures the feel … Continue reading Random Image Dump #14
