So here is Susan Strasberg because I was watching Scream of Fear and she was in it and very pretty.  The movie is also pretty solid as far as second tier early 60’s psychological horror movies go.  That sounds like faint praise but it’s Hammer and you can’t go to Hammer expecting prestige pictures, they have limitations.  I am setting expectations is all, for the kind of studio Hammer is this is a really good example of the kind of stuff they make.  You may or may not recognize Susan Strasberg but her name at least should be familiar.  This is because she is the daughter of perhaps the most famous acting coach of all time, Lee Strasberg.  On top of that she had a very long career.  I actually have seen her in a lot of movies over the years.  This is one of her earlier roles and I didn’t recognize her but now it makes sense that I liked how she played things so much, she has chops.  She also is classically beautiful.  I actually thought she looked like Anne Hathaway from some angles, which does sort of sum it up, the whole classically beautiful thing.  Anyway, good movie, good actress, guys, it’s October.  How great is October.  Without an October this post wouldn’t even exist.  Today I want to fuck Susan Strasberg.

This is where my blog becomes a snake eating it’s own tail.  So I posted Danielle Harris on Friday, which had me thinking about Danielle Harris this weekend, which had me talking to a friend about her last night, which had me watching some of her movies late last night.  So where does it end?  Will I just post Danielle Harris every few days from now on?  No, probably not.  First of all, there just aren’t that many pictures of her.  I can keep making gifs but I don’t want an all gif post and eventually it will just be gifs of horror movies and Friday already had her covered in blood and apparently to some people that’s “disturbing”.  It does seem like the end game of the internet, where it becomes such a narcissistic echo chamber that I am eventually just echoing back what I said.  And you guys think blood is disturbing.  I mean, I first saw Danielle Harris in a movie when I was about 10 years old.  She was also about 10 in it, it was Halloween 4 and was on VHS and given she’s a couple years older than me was probably a couple years old.  I have always kind of liked her, yeah, even at 10, though I don’t know if I knew I liked her at the time.  I had a complicated relationships with my crushes back then.  Either way, the thing is I would go years without seeing her in movies and years without even thinking about her honestly, until the internet happened and the rise of social media and so on, where you are able to create a little tunnel of your interest that keep you from broadening your horizons.  Then I started thinking about her much more cause she tweeted and Google would tell me it knew I was into her.  It’s why I watched one of the movies I watched last night. I only knew it existed because when she was making it she was tweeting about it.  Years ago.  It wasn’t good.  I actually knew that going in.  But you know… apparently this is where we’re headed.  If i had to guess one girl I would repeatedly post for the rest of my life it wasn’t going to be Danielle Harris but oh well.  I hope you guys like clown costumes cause it’s about the only thing left I haven’t posted of her.  And you guys thought blood was disturbing.  Today I want to fuck Danielle Harris.

I found out Hayley Atwell was at a thing last night when @femalecelebrityoftheday posted her and I was like, “Well, I guess I’ll be posting Hayley tomorrow”.  I was right.  It’s amazing how accurate my predictions are when I am solely responsible for their outcome.  I’m some sort of genius or something.  Her showing up at something always feels like such a rare treat, how am I supposed to not post her.  Anyway, the BFI is having a film festival and she was at the awards for it and she looked great.  And also I want her to just be in more stuff please.  Can you hear me Hollywood, it’s me Margret.  I would really like it if you made Hayley Atwell your biggest star now.  We’d all benefit because you’d have a bundle of charisma and talent and joy in your biggest projects and we’d get to see a bundle of charisma, talent, and joy in your biggest projects.  Thank you.  Today I want to fuck Hayley Atwell.

This is Sharni Vinson who is an Australian model and actress that I have only seen in one thing and that is You’re Next, a home invasion/slasher movie from what is now almost a decade ago which is kind of scary.  I rewatched it this morning and while it isn’t perfect it is a pretty cool twist on the genre in general. If you have ever watched a horror movie and wished the victim was more capable well… this movie is for you.  It doesn’t quite go all Rites of Spring/The Last House on the Left where she becomes the predator (and a monster) or anything, but it is fun to watch a bunch of men who appear to be thrill killers suddenly realize one of the women they are targeting is substantially more competent and capable than they are.  I don’t want this in every horror movie, it would become lame and pandering but it is a nice twist on the final girl.  It sort of feels like the end point of the type.  Not that it shouldn’t exist anymore but the logical extreme that some movie needed to take it.  The Final Girl is of course the girl who lives to the end of the movie but more so is the most capable member of the movie.  I have always had a lot of love for slashers, in part because I grew up with them and in part because they are unknowing commentary on the times we live in, but also because of the final girl.  In what is largely considered the best scholarly work on Slasher movies (which is why every hack like me quotes it, it’s almost the only resource we have), Carol J Clover came to the conclusion that Slashers are really the most consistently feminist genre of movie (which is both disappointing in some ways and probably shocking to people who love to shit on genre movies) in that not only is it one of the few sub genres that consistently gives female characters agency, it also is one of the few that forces male viewers to empathize with and actually identify with the female lead.  We don’t just feel for her in a movie, we are forced to see the world through her eyes and any fantasies we have about being the hero force us to want to be her.  Which is why I say this is sort of the logical conclusion of the type in that Sharni Vinson doesn’t just survive, she becomes the bad ass you are actively rooting for.  It’s why I included the first picture. When she picks up that ax you aren’t worried if she’ll live, you know those dudes in their creepy animal masks are in fucking trouble.  Again, this wouldn’t work for everything and the movie has it’s flaws, but it sure is a lot of fun to see the tables turned and her beat the shit out of some dudes.  And she does it really well.  And her accent is kind of sexy.  So today I want to fuck Sharni Vinson.

Happy Friday the 13th everyone!  Boy I have been looking forward to this stupid day all year.  See, every Friday the 13th I use it as an excuse to watch horror movies and act like that is why, rather than me just generally watching a lot of horror movies.  It also means I check the calendar to see when the next one is coming.  When I saw there was an October one I was just thrilled.  It is as me as a day can get.  So why not celebrate with a Scream Queen.  My favorite one probably.  Danielle Harris, who is pretty hot and sure has been in a lot of horror movies.  Here she is.  Enjoy.  Today I want to fuck Danielle Harris.

Boy guys, I am really tired.  I am not looking for sympathy, none of you made me choose my bohemian, party filled lifestyle.  It’s no one’s fault but mine that my life is a thrill a minute adventure.  But the result of my wild night is that I feel like I was hit by a truck.  Luckily Daisy Ridley made today super easy by being in a photoshoot for Vogue where she looked great.  I mean, it was weird but whatever, I’ll take it.  I was obviously excited for the trailer the other day.  I hate trailers in general but I bite on a few, including Star Wars.  I got chills because I am essentially stuck in a state of perpetual adolescence and Hollywood in general and Disney in particular are really skilled at using nostalgia to manipulate the emotions of an entire generation with a severe case of arrested development.  I am not sure if I am criticizing myself, pop culture, society, or the entertainment industry to be honest.  I guess I can criticize more than one thing at a time, I am a remarkably talented individual and my mom tells me I am really smart.  My basic point though is I really liked the trailer and am excited for the movie.  And I will forever adore Daisy Ridley because I love the character of Rey and she played Rey and that’s all it would take.  Seriously, all it would take.  It’s why I’d give Mark Hamill my kidney if he asked for it, even though that would be greedy because he’s probably got a bunch of spare kidneys just sitting around as decoration, you know how decadent those Hollywood types are. Today I want to fuck Daisy Ridley.

Hey it’s Sunday so here is Charli XCX.  You might be wondering how those things are connected but I am going to leave that as a mystery.  And by leave it as a mystery I mean I wrote it and don’t know what I meant but if I pretend it’s a secret then I seem interesting and mysterious and your brain will come up with a more interesting connection than I could make up.  Or you won’t really care because you don’t really read this anyway and if you’re one specific follower you’re just scrolling to the bottom so you can misspell her name in the replies because you like tweaking me.  It’s all good because I have Charli XCX to look at.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

It’s never a good sign when it’s almost 4 PM and I go, “Hey, did I post today”. The answer today was no and it’s a symptom of bad sleep.  I don’t know if anyone else gets this but I woke up in the middle of the night and was up for 5 fucking hours before getting back to sleep at which point I am not sure what day it is, because my day has been broken up by too many separate sleep periods and I am loopy and out of it and also terribly old so missing sleep really wears on me.  On the plus side of being up from 2 AM to 7 AM though, is that’s plenty of time to watch horror movies.  I have to get them in somewhere.  This morning I watched the Cult of Chucky, which I kind of liked.  Part of that is just an affection for Chucky and after the silly turn the series took the bigotry of low expectations.  The fact that this wasn’t terrible was a huge bonus.  But also I really like Fiona Dourif.  In the last movie she became something the series never truly had, a good final girl.  I have an affection for final girls because you know, they’re the heroes and you are supposed to relate to them and I do with the good ones.  She was an especially good one in general though.  And you know,  maybe spoilers for a movie from 2013, it makes sense she might be Chucky’s daughter cause you know, her dad is an academy award nominated actor who just so happens to play Chucky.  I of course say maybe spoilers because I am fuzzy on that plot point.  Did Chucky have an affair with her mom or was he just obsessed?  I legitimately don’t remember.  Maybe that isn’t a ringing endorsement for the series.  Either way, the new one is pretty cool and I enjoyed it and I enjoyed Fiona Dourif’s performance.  Also she is pretty.  So today I want to fuck Fiona Dourif.

Boy, I hope Fashion Week never ends (Fashion Week ended last night).  Fan Bingbing is showing up again because she is the world’s hottest chameleon. Here are four of her looks in Paris for the few days of Fashion Week she was around for and it’s amazing how easily she flows from one look to another and they all look fantastic.  Even stuff I am convinced wouldn’t look fantastic on someone else looks perfect on her.  It’s exceptional really, her personal style.  I really can’t think of a look she has ever chosen that I felt hasn’t worked.  Like that black thing right there.  I feel like that shouldn’t work.  Or at least, that shouldn’t work for the same person who is wearing those big glasses and all white.  It feels like bad ass cyberpunk assassin and stern librarian are diametrically opposed looks but apparently they are not.  Apparently, they are complimentary looks.  I don’t know how much of this is because she is just that good at pulling off all these looks and how much of it is just because she’s very clearly cheating by being ridiculously beautiful but it’s working either way. Today I want to fuck Fan Bingbing.

I am aware I have been repeating myself recently.  I went to my blogs main page to just look to see if it’s as bad as I think and yup, in the past 10 days 3 people have made up 7 posts and hey, now it’s about to be 4 people making up 9 of the last 11.  I can’t help it if certain people keep showing up and looking amazing.  I would like to diversify but then on top of all of it Fan Bingbing shows up at Paris Fashion wee and this kind of feels like it goes without saying given it’s Fan Bingbing, but she looked perfect.  In all white and like… I don’t even know, even her face decided to somehow conform tot he look.  It’s damn impressive just how perfectly she can put together a look.  And really any look from what I can tell.  She is just gorgeous.  Today I want to fuck Fan Bingbing.
