I tried to write a blog post before work this morning. I got a few paragraphs done, but I can’t finish it at the keyboard. Maybe tomorrow. Full disclosure: I did not work any more on it during breaks and lunch, because the lure of crossword puzzles was too strong. So let’s have our usual Monstrous Monday before the next episode of Dateline starts (regular readers may recall that on Mondays I watch Dateline on OWN).
I love this picture, because we all get by with a little help from our friends. Even a monster sometimes needs a hand.
I’ve been thinking about this movie a lot lately. It is Roger Corman’s Little Shop of Horrors (1960). I love that movie. I have no use for the musical, but to each his own, as the old lady said when she kissed the cow.
This, of course, is from my all time favorite, Nosferatu (1929). They knew how to use shadows in those old movies.
Just to end on a note of cuteness, here is one of my own little vampires, in a decorative pot given to me by my good friend, Marsha. I have no problem with cute monsters. I like all kinds!
