It looks like the reunited Sinister Monster Doom Legion has survived their first adventure together (well, most of them). But there’s still one more loose end to tie up in this story arc…tune in this week to find out what payback Dr. Jeraukov has planned.
Okay. That’s just downright wrong hun. Seriously, nobody should have to watch that crud. Several of my sisters love that kind of stuff so I’ve felt the burn. It’s terrible, you never feel clean again!
Gah, I’m going to have to go watch a back-to-back Hellraiser marathon or pop in my Nightmare on Elm Street collection to rinse out my brain! Just thinking about it stings.
On the upside, I like that Hypnausea’s hat is still crispy! Hehehehehehehehe.
Trust me, I did not watch that movie on my own free will. I’ll admit that I don’t remember much about it now, but what few scenes I do remember were truly, painfully awful. No amount of wholesome slasher films can really wash away the memories that linger like a fart in an elevator.
Why does Hypnausea wear burnt clothes? Because it’s a ‘hot’ trend. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I can’t even berate you for the horrible pun, I walked right into it……
Haw haw!
Somehow it figures that Scap’s problem with the drug trade is that the addicts are having too much fun…
Excessively negative people can’t stand to see ANYONE happy, even if said happy person is under the thumb of needles and atrocious addictions. Even the brief respite that heroin-addicts feel when shooting up is more of a happy feeling than anything Scapula knows!
Hey, Moulin Rouge wasn’t that bad. In fact? It was actually pretty twisted. It opens with misery and depression, dark inner reflection, moves on to destitution and substance abuse with a midget (played by John Leguizamo). From there? We roll into lying, deception, implied prostitution, scheming and plotting, disease, more lying and manipulation (the love story really starts getting thick right about now), blackmail, extortion, double-crossing, discovery and revenge, attempted MURDER (persistently), then finally and inevitably? Tragedy. The grand master plan falls to poo after our heroine tragically dies a horrible death by tuberculosis. This movie had just about every ridiculous concept you could throw into a movie. There’s even a bit of singing. 😀 It’s pretty demented.
It’s sick, all right, but not in the pleasant way that most of the wackadoos I know would enjoy. Then again I know plenty of wackadoos who DO like that movie.
People are strange.
I prefer my violence to just hurt my body, not my soul.
Nicole Kidman in a bustier is a vision that nourishes my soul and sustains my mental well-being.
I have forgotten the rest of the movie, on purpose.
Not really a Kidman fan, looks or not. “Eyes Wide Shut” is all the proof you need that Nicole and her former-hubby are terrible actors.
Sheesh, I’m really on a negative rant, aren’t I? I’d better say something nice about someone fast….ummmmm…..okay, here we go: Tura Satana was really hot.
Okay, totally irrelevant, but no less true!
Who said anything about her acting? He was talking about how she looks in a bustier!
Point taken. I still stand by my statement, although she does have decent rear (as seen in the aforementioned Kubrick film).
Well, there’s another reason to keep my cyanide tooth in case I’m ever taken alive. Watching Moulin Rouge once was bad enough to make me cringe for a week…
I should start a crisis-hotline for people who have been subjected to Moulin Rouge. Quick counseling to help alleviate the pain and all that.
…of course, that’s what this comment section is for. Let it all out, children! Release the pain!
Is ‘Quick Counseling’ a code for ‘here’s a revolver with one bullet, you know what to do’?
Make it interesting: Russian Roulette! Maybe you’ll be healed, maybe you’ll amuse Vietnamese captors in that movie from way back when.
Please don’t say “The Green Berets”… I ain’t ever seen a bigger goof-up from a cowboy trying to be a soldier…even if it wasn’t propaganda…
For the most part, I agree… Moulin Rouge was not an outstanding film, by any means BUT… you must admit, the art direction was awesome! There are just some movies where my art person eyeballs get all whacked out over… and the sets and costumes just make me wish I’d gone into costume design. That’s about all that was good about the film.
Flashy lights and pretty effects can’t hide a crappy movie (although God knows they sure try that a lot)! It’s sort of like the Star Wars prequels; thinking you can trick the audience with lots of visuals to hide them from the fact that there’s a weak story and untalented/uninterested actors wont always work.
Hokayyy, I think I’m done ranting about this movie; this is a comic site! Rant about how bad, er, great the comic is today!
Probably better than Postcards from the Edge
Never heard of that one. I’m going to assume it’s a stinker.
I was very caught off-guard by Scapula’s statement regarding drugs. For some reason, I respect him more for not relying on something so simple and destructive as drugs in order to build his evil empire (although, I probably wouldn’t be as picky myself). It’s good to know that even weirdos have some sort of principles.
I think Scap’s aversion to drugs and alcohol has less to do with morals and more to do with being paranoid about everyone around him. He probably figures that anything that might dull his senses, even briefly, is an opening for one of the world’s many a-holes to swoop in and kill him.
That’s why Scapula never gets drunk…well, except for that one time.
Well that, and all those drunk and/or stoned idiots seem to really piss him off….. New Years’ Eve flashback, anyone? Why would he want MORE of those morons around?
Whatever the reason, it’s cool to see that the potential for profit isn’t wroth the price of the paranoia for him.
No one should ever be subjected to the “Ludovico Castrato”… or the “Mister Roboto”. How inhumane!
Domo arigato! Damn it, now I have that song stuck in my head.
My T-level went down just looking at the fourth panel!
Remember, you can’t sue this comic for any brain damage you may suffer while reading it!
