V for Vendetta is basically the only piece of media where I turn off the subtitles (because I know the words by heart)

October 11th: Body Horror | The Thing

The Thing was released in 1982 and was directed by John Carpenter. A group of American scientists at an Antarctic research base are going about their normal operations when they see a helicopter shooting at a sled dog. They manage to save the dog, but once they take it in, they are shocked when commotion from the kennel causes the scientists to come face to face with a horrifying otherworldly creature. Now, they don't know who they can trust, and it's up to the men lead by chopper pilot R.J. MacReady (Kurt Russell) to find the devil in camp before it's too late.

Anyone who's seen The Thing knows why this movie was chosen to represent the body horror sub-genre. Without giving too much away, this film has some of the most beautiful practical effects in any horror movie I've ever seen (and I'd argue any movie ever) that still manage to stand the test of time. It employed pretty much every conceivable and known special effect at the time: hand puppets, marionettes, reverse filming, radio controls, wires, hydraulics, and pull cables being just a few. The film is wonderfully eerie and manages to capture a feeling of tension, paranoia, and distrust, and the acting by the group of just twelve men as the main characters is nothing short of stellar.

It can be watched for free on Internet Archive. Content Warnings for the Film (may contain spoilers): ||violence, body horror (obviously), gore, implied suicide (aftermath shown in not much detail), multiple dog deaths We have special effects artist Rob Bottin to thank for the absolute blessing that are these absolutely incredible designs. The majority of what you see in the film were made with latex and foam rubber which were then covered in creamed corn, strawberry jam, mayo, and KY Jelly. Bottin spent 10 days with Norris’s actor with Charles Hallahan creating different torsos, facial expressions, and even body hair patterns for Norris’s transformation, and hydraulic jaws were made to rip his torso in half. For Copper's death, an amputee was used as a stand in for when his arms get ripped off; fake arms were created with wax bones, gelatin flesh, and rubber veins as well as a mask of actor Richard Dysart's face. This movie is full of marionettes, prosthetics, hydraulics, and puppetry, and I absolutely adore everything it has to offer. If you'd like to see some more of the process that went into this movie, these are two very good videos to watch.

Happy 10th Anniversary to one of my All time Favorite Disney Films, Frozen. It' such a great film and it blessed the world with one of my favorite characters (and BEST Disney Princess), Princess Anna. It's a very special film for me and it's crazy that it's already a decade old.

Granted I wouldn't actually see Frozen until summer 2014 but regardless, Anna has been one of my favorite characters for just about as long as she's existed. I think of all of the Frozen Franchise the First film is still the best. In terms of Story, Visuals/Aesthetics, character designs, and some ICONIC songs (though I do prefer some songs in F2 over 1)

Anna is so special to me, and I am forever grateful that (for better or worse) Frozen became such a Smash it that it became a Mega Franchise that Disney continues to make content for and promote and Puts it's characters in everything. So Here's to 10 years and to another 10 more.

fellow ludwig ii enjoyer hell yeah....didnt know about the 1955 movie so i'll watch it asap thank you for talking about it hehe

Ludwig II. is (among others) one of my favourite royals throughout history, he's just so intrigueing and interesting.

I grew up watching this movie numerous times:

It's sadly in german, maybe you'll find a version with subtitles because it's so well made and I cry every time at the scene when he meets Richard Wagner for the first time, O.W. Fischer is the best Ludwig II. I could wish for 💜
