Let’s kick off Michelle’s birthday month of April with some beautiful shots of Ms. Pfeiffer, taken from my favorite of all her films, Up Close and Personal (1996). … April fools!

Behind the Scenes on The Howling
I’ve always told anyone who will listen that my affection for The Howling (1981) is unending.

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).
