Jerry Lee Lewis Scares Us!


Dick Miller, not Dick Smith.  RIP, Mr. Futterman.

Here is Dick Smith, applying makeup to Jonathan Frid to age-ify him on Dark Shadows and House of Dark Shadows:



Ryan at the piano.

Yeah, so the Israel Keyes video is on youtube.  It's really disturbing so I'm not going to put it here.  You can go find it yourselves, you sick mohfohs.  (I DID NOT SEND IT TO KATYA!  SHE IS MAKING UP MADE UP THINGS!!!)


Here's the Ted Bundy television movie I remember from my childhood.  Mark Harmon ... huh!  Who'da thunk.

Oh my god!  My memory was real!!!!!  HERE'S THE BODY IN THE SNOW!



The real Jerry Lee Lewis, and ...


...Dennis Quaid, arguably hotter than the real deal.  He's got crazy face in that picture, though, so ...


...Dennis Quaid how I remember him as a child in Innerspace, when I thought he was hotty hot hot.  And oh yeah!  He was the lead in ...


... Jaws 3 (otherwise known as Jaws 3-D because the 80s).

Ah, what the hell. Here's the most amazing moment from Jaws 3:


Oh, you should watch it too:


There.  Don't you feel better now?


Dreamgirls!!!!


The Pied Piper of Lost Souls.


Jerry Lee and his 13 year old cousin, Myra Gale Brown.


Noners as Myra Gale Brown in Great Balls of Fire.


Shawn Stephens on her wedding day to the Killer.  (Um.  His nickname.  Not his alleged homicidal activities.)

Jerry Lee Lewis Scares Us


Hello Dear Listeners,

We have been enjoying the wonderful summer weather and doing our best to keep cool!  Hopefully you are enjoying the summer sun and staying safe from the things that go bump in the night. And, what makes summer better than a nice song or two?

Well this week you are in for a musical treat!  Katya and Laramie discuss the one and only Jerry Lee Lewis, AKA The Killer (really this is his nickname), and the many horrible things he has been accused of doing. If you haven't had a chance give Mr. Lewis a Google and bask in the 1960s terror that is his hairdo.

So join us as we delve into why you should be afraid of Mr. Lewis and people like him.

**Clinkies**

Katya and Laramie

Celebrate Independence Day with Reverend Lowe!

Nothing says, "I love 'Murca!" than shooting fireworks into the maw of a werewolf.

'SALEM'S LOT Scares Us!

This may be my favorite episode yet.  Stephen King's 'Salem's Lot is one of my top three favorite novels, and Katya and I have a gay old time dissecting it metaphorically and literally, exploring why the vampires are sexy, scary, and something horribly in between.

To begin, here is me two winters ago, with my fabled copy of 'Salem's Lot ... with movie pictures (thanks Aunt Nancy!!!).


My hair was especially insane; Mr. Barlow, meanwhile, is quite bald.  The horror of hairlessness, I guess.

I posted the pictures themselves a few weeks ago, but heck ... it won't hurt you to see them again . Imagine being seven.  And me.

His hands actually unnerved me more at the time than his freaky rodent teeth.



Katya hates Ben Mears; I had a giant crush on him, because of course I did.


Susan, you fool!  Bonnie Bedelia, meanwhile, is a pretty cool cat; I loved her in Needful Things and in Sordid Lives.  You owe yourself a checkout of that.


Ben and Mark explore the Marsten House ... and their forbidden love for each other.  First I gotta stake my old girlfriend; hold on a sec.


See?  Barney MacFadden ... total hot sauce!  Far hotter than ridiculous Fred Willard in shiny boxer shorts.


Barlow, the vampire!  Almost an afterthought.  And besides, everyone remembers the creepy floating kids.  Like this li'l rascal.


I LOVE THIS PHOTO.  This is the one that made me desperate to read the book.  And even moreso after my grandmother locked it in an attic and then burned it in a barrel ...



WHAT IS THAT GUNK COMING OUT OF HIS CHEST?!?  You can almost smell it.  I'll post a color photo; it looks like vanilla custard.


That last sentence makes me uncomfortable.





The copy we bought at the fabled, and now much lamented, Pamida in Sidney. These were the King paperbacks of my childhood, with that specific font with his name, and then the title in a variety of very bright colors.


The last two lines continue to make me uncomfortable.


The much, much, much, much truncated version that was my early Christmas present in 1987.



See?  Vanilla custard.


Marjorie Glick ... she's terrifying.  Look at all that gunk on her teeth!  But I guess she's good at causing erections when she chomps on innocent red-headed doctors who were just along for the ride.


So that's what happened to Susan.

Here's a few rarer shots from the 1979 film:












The very personification of meth.

Here's some more Barney MacFadden, just to prove how he cute he was:




And s'more Barlow, because, honestly, I like how he looks.  Would you rather Rutger Hauer?




A meme I made in 2007 before I knew what memes were.

And finally ... DON'T LOOK IN IN HIS EYES!!!


Darn it.  You looked.
