Another Glass of Lame?

Posted on June 17, 2023 by mohawkvalleygirl

I was going to put off making my Lame Post Friday post till Saturday morning but decided to pour myself another glass of Sauvignon Blanc and do it now. What are you shaking your head at (or your finger or your booty) (you know how you are)? It is only my second glass of wine. And it is Friday night!

I am kind of sort of watching The Ape Man with Bela Lugosi. I found a DVD set I had forgotten I had: The Best of the Worst. I already watched Manos the Hands of Fate and Track of the Moon Beast, both of which have been featured on Mystery Science Theatre 3000. Again, kind of, sort of (the me watching part, not the MST3K featuring part). I have been looking at Facebook or doing puzzles in a puzzle book. I need a new puzzle book, by the way.

My current viewing pleasure.

This is not the best picture. Then again, some of the movies are not the best prints. I love buying these collections for cheap. Sometimes I get the same movie two or three times, but that is OK with me. The Brain That Wouldn’t Die, The Terror, and others bear multiple viewings.

For the record, I have not been completely useless tonight. I finished two articles for Mohawk Valley Living magazine and got them emailed out. I hope they like at least one of them.

I see I am over 200 words. Time to stop babbling on and pay more attention to what is happening to Bela. Happy Friday, everyone!

Basil, Beast, Big Chill… Oh Yeah, and Columbo!

I went running this morning, thinking I could do a Sunday Running Commentary Post. Fortunately that was not the only reason, because I don’t know that I can say that much about it now. However, I have been having a fairly enjoyable Cinema Sunday, so perhaps I can post about that.

We started with Dressed to Kill, starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson respectively. This was how I first encountered Basil Rathbone, not as the horror icon I later found out he was.

We went on to a couple of episodes of Columbo, which we happen to have on DVD. I would like to eventually have the entire series. I loves me some Columbo.

Next I wanted something cheesy, so we went to our collection Attack of the Killer B’s for Track of the Moonbeast. I remembered it from MST3K, if that tells you anything.

Now we are enjoying The Big Chill, an old favorite with a great soundtrack.

Now I am trying to think of a title to pull this post together. Well, what does anybody want from me on a Sunday afternoon? At least I am up to 200 words and a few illustrations. Time to start looking forward to Monstrous Monday! As always, I hope you’ll stay tuned.
