It has been a while since I made a Monstrous Monday post. Of course that happens when I go days and days without posting. I am trying to be better about that. I am trying to be better about other things but with indifferent success. One must persevere (one being me).
He’s scary!
I throw in a monster, before I get bogged down in justifying my lack of success and begin to wonder how hard I am really trying. A nice creepy silhouette of Nosferatu from the eponymous 1922 silent movie will take my mind off my shortcomings. I mean, my problems. There is a new Nosferatu in theatres now, and I have been thinking about making a trip to New Hartford, NY to see it. I know, I know, it is cheaper to stream, but I don’t know how to do that. Additionally, it is more of an event to go see a movie on the big screen. And there are some great eateries around the cinema, so one could make a day of it. If only I still had a husband to drag along. Oh dear, that sounds like I am feeling sorry for myself, which perhaps I am. Quick, throw in another monster!
It says NO SMOKING, but he is smoking hot, yes!
Here is a different vampire, Blackula. I rather enjoyed that movie. I once started to watch the sequel, Scream, Blackula, Scream. I do not remember why I did not see all of it. Perhaps it was a DVR malfunction. Alas that it has never come my way again. I really must learn to navigate Roku TV. I would imagine there are any number of movies I would like to see available for free (I am a widow on a fixed income, you know) (yes, more whining; judge me if you are so inclined).
Somebody offer that vampire a napkin! And some Visine!
I searched my Media Library for another vampire and found the incomparable Christopher Lee. He looks as if he was interrupted mid-bite.
The man that set the standard.
I felt I should include Bela Lugosi, who many consider the quintessential Count Dracula. My late husband, Steve, always found this movie a little slow. I see what he means, but I enjoy it. I guess I’m just a sucker for vampires (see what I did there?). Ooh, that would make a good headline!
