<span style="color: black;">Some of you might be familiar with a little film called <i>Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation</i> - the shot-for-shot remake of <i>Raiders</i> that took young filmmakers Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala seven years to complete. It's a masterpiece in its own right and was the subject of a heartwarming book a few years ago entitled <i>Raiders: The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made</i> by Alan Eisenstock. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">As it turns out, Jeremy Coon, the producer of <i>Napoleon Dynamite</i>, saw the <i>Raiders: The Adaptation</i> and is currently working on a documentary about its making with plans to make a narrative feature film. As part of the documentary Chris and Eric want to go back and film the one scene that they weren't able to recreate: the flying wing sequence and they need our help to do it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: black;"><em>A Fistful of Dollars</em> by Frank Chandler</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Tandem in 1972</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"><strong>The Man With No Name</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Every town has a boss; someone has to run the place. But San Miguel was a town with two bosses, and that was one too many. The town had lived and died in uneasy peace while the Baxter gang shipped guns and the Rojos smuggled liquor.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Then the Man With No Name rode in and saw in the set-up the chance to make himself a fistful of dollars. He set the rival families and their gangs against each other and managed to survive the bloodshed, unscathed, while each side paid his hire.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">But then a massive shipment of Mexican gold fell into the hands of Ramon Rojo, and the Man With No Name kidnapped the wife Ramon had stolen from her husband, the chips were down. Violence exploded upon the streets of San Miguel and many men met their fate to the clamour of Juan de Dio's death knell.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The Man With No Name came to within an inch of losing his own life; that was when he ceased to be merely dangerous, and became lethal.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><em>For A Few Dollars More</em> by Joe Millard</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Award Books in 1967</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"><strong>The Man From Nowhere</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">A stranger in every town. Who he is or where he comes from, no one knows. He has no friends, and a Colt 45 to take care of his enemies.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">He's a professional who kills for profit. A bounty hunter on a violent trail through the dusty, muddy towns of the lawless West. A quiet man who has faced down danger every day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Danger from Red Cavanagh, who had a $2,000 price on his head. And a pistol against the bounty hunter's back. But Red waited a split second too long.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Danger from "the sheriff." who was only worth $500. But the odds were high. Three of the "the sheriff's" men against the stranger. That was when the bounty killer's lightning draw paid off.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">And danger from El Indio. Wanted, dead or alive, for $10,000. Enough money to tempt a second bounty hunter, enough money to force the two hunters into a dangerous alliance.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">For The Man From Nowhere would betray his word for a single greenback. And kill unblinkingly For A Few Dollars More!</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><em>The Good, The Bad And The Ugly</em> by Joe Millard</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Award Books in 1967</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"><strong>The Man With No Name</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His partner is the desperado, Tuco, who turns vengeance into a sadistic contest of endurance.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His adversary is the ruthless Sentenza, a killer who long ago lost count of the lives he has cut down.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His goal is a $200,000 treasure in stolen Army gold for which many have died and more will be killed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His secret is a dead man's final breath. More than once it has saved his life, and it will lead him to the treasure - if he can keep alive long enough to reach it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His trail is a path of blood cutting across the hell that the Civil War had brought to the southwest. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">His reward - death, probably, from any one of a hundred enemies; betrayal, possibly, from the unpredictable Tuco; defeat, perhaps, blazing from Sentenza's custom-made pistol... or the gold that two armies and a legion of dead men have failed to claim!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">To the Man With No Name, the odds seemed alsmot favorable!</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">He was cold as steel, hard as iron, and on the make for the only metal that really counted - gold. All sides in the battle for Mexico offered it. He chose the highest bidder - a peasant bandit, three-quarters fool, with dreams of glory and an impossible demand: "Teach me to make a revolution." He was a hired gun. He would do what he was paid for - even if he taught too well, even if the lessons cost him his life.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Some people called him a bounty killer. Others called him a bastard. But no one called him a coward and stayed alive...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">It didn't take long for the town to learn that Sabata was a man of few words and many talents, not the least of which was a deadeye draw. When Sabata wanted something, he didn't care who he had to kill to get it - that is, as long as it left him with a clear conscience and a big profit.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The results are explosive when self-exiled IRA explosives specialist John Mallory teams up with a Mexican peasant-turned-revolutionary to knock over the Mesa Verde bank... with dynamite. What started out as a nice joint venture to get rich, quickly turns into an operation for the revolutionary cause, and the two are drawn into a fight against the Mexican army, bearing painful similarities to Mallory’s IRA past.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Harrison Ford, who turns 71 this week, created one of the most beloved and lasting characters in movie history with his role in <i>Star Wars</i> as the irascible but lovable space smuggler Han Solo. But that isn't even his greatest and most iconic part -- that superlative must go to his archaeologist adventurer character Indiana Jones, star of <i>Raiders of the Lost Ark</i> and its sequels, TV prequels, graphic novels, actual novels, and more. But few people know how close this force of culture came to not being our Indy at all.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Jones is a no-nonsense, rough-and-tumble adventure seeker with a trademark brown fedora, leather jacket, and stubble. But so was the Charlton Heston character in 1954's <i>Secret of the Incas</i>, a movie that was looted for our hero's character design, costume, and even his attitude. Director Steven Spielberg and producer George Lucas have admitted as much, and perhaps because of a wish to cover their tracks, <i>Secret of the Incas</i> has never been released on video. A big difference in Indy's case, however, is that he is irrepressibly good-hearted and honest -- Heston's character in <em>Secret</em> was a horrible louse.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">When Spielberg and Lucas were created their movie's hero, his rough charm and charisma, the director was drawn to casting one of the hottest television stars of 1980: Tom Selleck, best-known as <i>Magnum, P.I.</i>. Selleck was the favorite to play Indy -- his falsetto voice notwithstanding -- until Spielberg saw a little movie called <i>The Empire Strikes Back</i>, where he was blown away by the actor playing Han Solo. Since Selleck couldn't get out of his contract with CBS to allow him to do the movie anyway, Harrison Ford (Lucas's first choice the whole time) stepped in and made motion picture history. And his voice is deep, too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: black;">Other Actors Who Would Have Been Indiana Jones</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">How might gravel-voiced Nick Nolte been as the titular scholar-adventurer? Steve Martin had the chance to don the fedora, but he chose the musical <i>Pennies from Heaven</i> instead. Bill Murray was ready to crack the whip but, like Selleck, couldn't get out of his TV obligations for long enough. Fellow SNLer Chevy Chase was one of the most popular stars in the world in 1980, but he passed. <i>Animal House</i> star Tim Matheson had the look, as did future <i>E.T.</i> actor Peter Coyote. Finally, Jack Nicholson turned it down, and Harrison Ford was cast just three weeks before filming began.</span><br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><strong>His name was almost Dr. Indiana ... Smith. And he was almost a duck</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The name everyone knows almost wasn't Harrison Ford's character's at all. It wasn't until the first day of filming that Indy's name was changed from "Indiana Smith" to "Indiana Jones." Somehow the lack of a long vowel in the original last name makes the character's moniker less impactful ... which is probably why they made such an important change once they heard the actors saying the old name. But at least it wasn't "Indiana McDuck," since Spielberg and Lucas have both cited the 1950s <i>Disney Ducks</i> comic books as inspiration for the series, including one issue where Uncle $crooge steals a native idol and has to run from a giant round boulder!</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Indiana Jones is an unforgettable character, and his portrayal by Harrison Ford both showed that the actor could do more than Han Solo and also propelled <i>Raiders of the Lost Ark</i> to the No. 1 box office spot. The original movie also lifted director Spielberg to iconic status, something that would be cemented with his next movie, 1982's <i>E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial</i>.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Raiders!</i> truly is
the story of the greatest fan film ever made. Years ago, I had the opportunity
to attend a screening of Eric Zala and Chris Strompolos' <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation </i>and I was blown away by it.
While the quality of the video wasn't the greatest, what impressed me most was
how this group of kids managed to pull off a (relatively) shot for shot remake
of my favorite film of all time. What they lacked in props, locations and
special effects, they made up for with passion and excitement that resulted in pure
magic.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><em>Raiders!</em> is the behind the scenes story of how they managed
to pull it off (which only took seven years). The ingenuity that went into the movie
is astounding. The basement became their studio which held sets for the Well of
Souls, complete with overhead entrance created by removing an old furnace and
even The Raven Bar in <st1:country-region><st1:place>Nepal</st1:place></st1:country-region>
were Indy goes to find <st1:city><st1:place>Marion</st1:place></st1:city>. And,
yes, they even set fire to the place, just like in the movie. Unable to find a
monkey, they trained their pet dog to take on the role. After a few attempts,
they even managed to get a six foot boulder for the South American temple and they even filmed the entire truck chase.
The only scene missing from <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The
Adaptation</i> is the flying wing sequence because they couldn't find anyone to
let them blow up an airplane.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">It wasn't all pleasant for everyone involved though. As the
years went by, friendships were strained and tested as the kids grew up
and apart from each other. The book follows the entire story from the idea's
conception, through filming, editing and on up through the present day. After
years of having the complete film sitting on their shelves, Steven Spielberg
was finally given a copy and wrote letters to the filmmakers congratulating
them on their achievement. It's all here for you to read, and aside from the
opening chapters about repairing a home in post-Katrina <st1:state><st1:place>Louisiana</st1:place></st1:state>
(this part is a real chore to get through), it's a great read. But be warned,
after reading this book, you will want to watch <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation</i>, but it's not commercially
available anywhere.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"><em>Bond On Bond</em> by Roger Moore</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Lyons Press in 2012</span></div>
<span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">When this book was announced, I was somewhat interested as I have Roger Moore’s previous book sitting on my shelf waiting to be read. The following description was released, “The Bond movies remain the longest continually running film series in movie history, and 2012 marks its fiftieth anniversary. To celebrate these films and their cultural heritage, Roger Moore has written a book that features all the Bond movies, along with a wonderfully witty account of his own involvement in them. From the girls to the villains, the cocktails to the cars, and gadgets to the locations and everything else, this beautiful book is illustrated with hundreds of iconic images from all the films plus many previously unseen photos from Moore’s personal collection. This is the ultimate James Bond book, written by the ultimate insider, with all the affection and good humor we’ve come to expect from Roger Moore” and I knew that I needed to read this book. It sounded like a good time with Sir Roger Moore giving his opinions on all things Bond. Sounds fun, right?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">And I imagine it would be, but this book does not deliver in this regard. The book is broken down with chapters devoted to the villains, the girls, the gadgets, the cars, the locations, etc. The first seven chapters are merely Roger Moore telling us the same things that have been told in many books and documentaries over the years. We learn about how Harry Saltzman and Cubby Broccoli first created Bond, we learn about Sean Connery being cast and we read about the villains, girls, gadgets, cars, etc. that appeared in each film; but not Moore’s opinions on these things. He throws in some one-liners (some are cringe inducing) and anecdotes along the way, but most of these are merely re-hashes of things we've heard before. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The next three chapters entitled “Bond On Bonds”, “Bond Behind the Scenes” and “Bond On Screen” are the best three chapters in the entire book because here the book delivers. We get Roger Moore’s opinions on each of the actors who have played 007 and some interesting behind the scenes stories on the making of the films. It’s also nice to read a little about the rival Bond film <em>Never Say Never Again</em> and its release the same year as Moore’s <em>Octopussy</em> – I just wish it was more in depth. The final chapter, while featuring some nice poster artwork, feels like it was just added on for filler as it’s merely a listing of the filmmakers, budgets and box office receipts for each film. The book is nicely put together and features many photos, some of which I hadn’t seen before.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">But I have to call out Sir Roger on one thing. He goes on to describe the first time a wet bike is used on screen and delivers some behind the scenes details very nicely, but it’s in <em>The Spy Who Love Me</em> and not <em>For Your Eyes Only</em>. You were in both those movies, so surely you shouldn’t have made that mistake. Don’t get me wrong, the book is well written and it’s a quick and enjoyable read, but there’s not much new here for the avid Bond fan. Ultimately, this book by the ultimate insider is not the ultimate James Bond book.<br /> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I have enjoyed the character of Dracula ever since I was a wee lad and saw Bela Lugosi appear as the undead count one Halloween season. I was also a big fan of the <em>In Search Of</em> series hosted by Leonard Nimoy and remember being fascinated by the Dracula episode and learning of Vlad Tepes for the first time. Needless to say I've read a few books and watched many more documentaries on the historical figure over the ensuing decades. Having an interest in both the fictional character and the historical figure, I'm rather demanding when it comes to mixing the two together; even in fiction. If I'm reading a historical fiction book about Vlad the Impaler, I don't take kindly to the idea of him turning into a vampire. On the other hand, if the story is about Bram Stoker's creation and it mixes in the historical figure, then this can be quite entertaining, such as in C. Dean Andersson's <em>I Am Dracula</em>.</span></div>

is written as if you were reading a book that was penned by
Dracula himself. The story opens with four year old Vlad learning a
deadly secret: he is told by his servant that she is actually his
mother. His father, who has forbidden this secret to be revealed, finds
out and has her executed for practicing witchcraft. Vlad is made to
watch and holds his mother’s gaze as she is burned alive. Time goes on
and young Vlad Dracula has a vision of a young gypsy girl
whose name is Tzigane and she proclaims that one day they will marry.
This dream stays with Vlad as the story follows the historical Vlad
Tepes as he and his brother, Radu, are given to the Turkish Sultan
Mehmet II as hostages for their father’s betrayal. It is here, as it was
for the historical figure, that Vlad is shaped into becoming the man of
legend.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;"> <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">When
history has sufficiently unfolded, Mehmet sends Vlad back to Wallachia
to be his puppet on the throne; history has taught us the consequences
of that decision. It is here in the novel that the fictional character’s
story takes over. Shorty after his return to Targoviste, Vlad has the
remains of his father and older brother, who were killed by their
fellow nobles, found and interred in the family crypt. They prove to be
vampires and are about to feed on Vlad when Tzigane appears and wards
them off. She convinces him to meet her the following night at her cabin
in the woods – she would enchant Vlad’s horse and it would take him to
her if he came alone. <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u></u><span style="color: black;"> <u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">Vlad
and Tzigane meet and the gypsy witch explains that he is to be Satan’s
king on Earth and her his queen. Some time is spent in convincing him
that Satan is not the evil one and that the false God of light is not
all that he appears to be. They fall deeply in love and Tzigane begins
to train Vlad in the ways of the occult in preparation for his role as
king. Before that can come about, certain prophecies must be met. With
Tzigane’s superior powers, she is able to help Vlad fulfill these
prophecies – although he still struggles with the idea of Satan not
being evil.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u></u><span style="color: black;"> <u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">Vlad
Dracula loses his throne, as did the historical figure, but here Vlad
and Tzigane go to a secret coven of the undead where she becomes a
vampire to help further Vlad’s occult powers and knowledge. He is at
first repulsed by the very idea of the undead, but their love carries
them through that obstacle and guides him to accept his
destiny and become Satan’s Earthly king. <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;"> <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">After
years of training, the time has come for Vlad to once again return to
the world of the living and finish fulfilling the prophecies by becoming
a hero in his land and reclaiming his throne. The story then tells
some more of the exploits of the historical figure until all the
prophecies are fulfilled and </span><span style="color: black;">Vlad has decided to join Tzigane in undeath
as a vampire himself. <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u></u><span style="color: black;"> <u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">This
he does, meets with Satan and learns many more occult
secrets, including the ability to freely walk in the daylight; something
that Tzigane has missed so very much. With Satan’s permission, he
shares this knowledge with her and they spend the next day in the
sunlight. On their return to the castle, Satan betrays them and gives
Tzigane to the false God of light where she is to suffer an eternity of
torture. Enraged, Dracula vows to destroy Satan and rescue his beloved. It’s
not that easy though, as Satan used his powers and erased the memory of
Tzigane from everyone’s mind, including Dracula’s. It takes him a year
to remember her and in that time the legend that we know as Dracula is
born.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">Needless to say, Satan is outraged and so imprisons Dracula, who eventually manages to escape. It is here that he meets another witch, this one is not a follower of Satan or God, but Mother Earth. She helps Dracula regain his powers and remember his past lives which explains Satan's jealousy of Dracula and Tzigane's love. There's an interesting passage where it is said that they both have lived many different lives throughout the ages and have loved each other in all of them. It is also implied that one of Dracula's past lives was that of Jesus Christ! With the help of Mother Earth, they take the battle to Satan and the false God and are able to rescue Tzigane. Dracula nurses her back to life and they live together through the centuries...</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black;">The book turned out to be more of a love story than what I was expecting, but I really enjoyed <em>I Am Dracula</em>. It's an easy read and quite the page turner. I've read online that some people don't take kindly to this book and it's pagan/religious beliefs. I don't anything about that really, and just went along for the ride. And what a ride! The book kept my interest all the way through and I really wanted Dracula to rescue Tzigane before the end. It's a little light on the historical Vlad the Impaler, but still a good read nonetheless.</span></div>

do you keep it up?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, with my industrial-strength bra, of course.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

robbers in the cemetery, or hide and go shriek?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Yes, I did all those things, and also I was quite an
entrepreneur - when other kids were setting up lemonade stands, I was setting
up a little doctor and nursie stand. I, you know, played the nursie and I
charged the little boys and made quite a bundle, so I was really
entrepreneurial even at a young age.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, I don't keep much hidden, but what I do have
hidden in my talents I guess are cooking and spinning tassels. If you saw my
movie, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Elvira: Mistress of the Dark</i>,
you'd already know I have those talents.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Some kids practice the piano when they are little, but me, I practiced
twirling tassels.</span></div>

they have two arms, two legs... well, actually that's not a prerequisite

</i><st1:city><st1:place><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">London</i></st1:place></st1:city><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">, Glen or Glenda?</i>, which is not really a
horror film but it was pretty darn scary, I'll tell you that; <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I Eat Your Skin, The Wasp Woman, Dracula's
Daughter, Attack of the 50-Ft Woman</i>, which is kind of going over into
sci-fi, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Brain That Wouldn't Die</i>. </span></div>

Brain That Wouldn't Die</i> was pretty much up there. I had a lot of fun with
the head. We had a head there in the studio, and it's a long story, but her
name was Hedda, the woman from <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Brain
That Wouldn't Die</i>.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">4E: You shouldn't talk about Elvira's commentaries, there's
nothing common about them, they 're right up there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Hey, that's a good idea - why do they call them
common-taries?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">4E: They're remaking <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Frankenstein</i>.
Who would be your choice if they remake the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bride
of Frankenstein</i>?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, my first choice, of course, is me, but if they
couldn't get me, because I would be too expensive, I would probably say Zsa Zsa
Gabor, because after all she has married everyone else, why not Frankenstein.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, I think the sexiest one is the Alien Queen,
from <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Alien</i>, because, I mean, she
spits acid, she can extend her jaw out a couple of feet, and she doesn't take
any crap from men. What could be sexier? So, I think she's my #1.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, I think I would really love to star in <em>The
Attack of the 50-Ft Woman</em>, because I think I could bring 2 very special things
to the role...</span></div>

would pick that one.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">RAY: If you had starred in Woody Allen's <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Sex

mammaries would have to have been restructured!</span></div>

terrible, terrible habit.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Well, I'm going to be working on a big Halloween album,
a record album, which I'm really excited about. It's got some really good
songwriters writing some new Halloween hits, which I think it's about time, I
mean "Monster Mash" has been kind of played into the ground - I know
we love it, but you know there is room for some new Halloween hits, so I 'm
going to work on those this year. Hopefully, we will get it out by next
Halloween. I'm also working on getting my sit-com on television, which has
been taking me a while, I did for CBS, but now they've declined it, so we're
running around trying to find another network.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Yeah, very much. I just came back from <st1:city><st1:place>New
York City</st1:place></st1:city> this last weekend, where I was in a big Fur
Free Friday Parade, and Forry would love this - I rode for an hour and a half
lying on top of a hearse through <st1:city><st1:place>New York City</st1:place></st1:city>...

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">ELVIRA: Yeah, I'm riding along wearing a bloody fur coat,
and it was great - people were screaming and yelling. I really had a fun time,
except it was kind of colder than a witch's nose out there. I'll think twice before I do that
again. But, yes, I 'm doing lots of the animal rights stuff and rescuing dogs
over here in my free time. If you know any dogs who are strays send them over.
I'll spend millions of dollars on them and find a good home for them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We're working on another movie, another
Elvira movie, but it's going along slowly, and I hope to start filming this year.
I wrote the movie. That's pretty much what's going on. Oh, I'm very close to
making a deal for hosting horror movies again on television. We're negotiating
right now with two different cable channels. And so, that looks really good. I
think that may be coming out soon. And, of course, I 'm doing my new Coors
commercial again for next year.</span></div>

of you in the months ahead.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">

gotta run. I've got an appointment for a

<span style="color: black;"></span><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Another week and another incompetent online seller. This time around we have an Amazon Marketplace seller called i-Deals, which appears to be the new name for longtime seller blowitoutahere. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">On Friday evening, i-Deals started pricing many DVDs, blu-rays and CDs in the $1 to $4 range. I didn't stumble across this sale until Sunday, when many of the choice titles had already sold out. Nonetheless, I did manage to find eight DVDs and two blu-rays that I wanted to add to my collection. I placed my orders and thought everything was fine. Four days later, I get an email from Amazon saying that the seller has cancelled my orders because all of the items were out of stock. I find it hard to believe that all ten movies are out of stock, especially since each movie listed multiple copies as being in stock when the order was placed; not to mention that Amazon's system won't let you order something from a Marketplace Seller if they don't have it available.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">After searching around for i-Deals online, I came across a couple of forums with people discussing this very issue. It seems many people are experiencing the same headache from these people. Some even go far as to speculate that it's not i-Deals fault and blame it on a pricing error in their system. Their key piece of evidence for this theory is that no-one would list something for as low as a buck. I don't know about you, but I've seen (and ordered from) Amazon Marketplace sellers who list books and movies for as low as one cent. They do this for the very reason that they hope you will check out the other items they are selling because Amazon's system doesn't allow for combined shipping. You will be charged $2.98 shipping for each movie that you purchase. That's how these sellers make a profit with their low pricing. So this system error theory does not stand under closer scrutiny.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">If it was a system error, then why did it take the company three days to do anything about it? Come to think of it, this "error" lasted Friday, Saturday and Sunday - just like a weekend sale would last. And if it was an error, why wouldn't they cancel all orders immediately and explain the situation to everyone and apologize for the inconvenience? They let all orders be charged and then cancelled them four to five days later. Many people would be understanding with an honest explanation of a system error, but no-one likes to be lied to that the items they purchased are out of stock. It looks like i-Deals offered some excellent deals and then changed their minds. This is unacceptable. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Fortunately, Amazon will see that everyone's money is refunded. For what it's worth, you can take some solace in the fact that their feedback rating is quickly plummeting. It's actually rather quite entertaining to keep checking their feedback and watch it fall. For those who are so inclined, you may also send an email to Amazon and notify them of your experience with i-Deals. From reading some forum posts, it appears that many people are doing so already. Many are also being asked to fill out reports to be sent to their investigation teams "so that the action will be severe on the seller."</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Unlike the <em>Indiana Jones</em> or <em>Dr. No</em> screenings, which only had a single participating cinema in the entire city of Chicago, four cinemas will be having this double feature:</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">With the announcement and release of so many Hammer movies and swanky blu-ray collector sets in the UK, I finally decided to bite the bullet and invest in a region free blu-ray player. When payday finally rolled around, I headed over to the Amazon UK website and started placing orders!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The first thing to arrive was a copy of <em>Quatermass and Pit</em>. Unfortunately, my copy did not include the slipcover, which was rather disappointing. I decided to write to Amazon and ask them if they would include it in one of my other orders that hadn't shipped yet. They worst they could do was say no, or so I thought. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The first chap who responded to my email said that after checking with the Fulfillment Team, that <em>Quatermass and the Pit</em> never had a slipcover and to reply to his email and let him know if I wanted to return the movie. Never had a slipcover? That statement is incorrect. If you don't believe me, take a look at the image I found in the blu-ray.com forums above. What's that next to the blu-ray case? It looks like a slipcover to me. If you look at the item page on the Amazon UK website, it's actually a photo of the slipcover.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Needless to say, I replied to let him know that he was incorrect. I pointed out the fact that the image on their website is that of the slipcover and not the blu-ray case. I offered to send the above photo and let them know that the right thing to do would be to change the image on their sales page. Guess what happened? After sending the email, the message was immediately bounced back as undeliverable. This new message contained links to follow in case I needed to contact the customer service team. So I did, once again.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I received a reply the next day and this new person tells me that <em>Quatermass and the</em> <em>Pit</em> doesn't have a slipcover. At least I got this guy to concede that the photo on their sales page was that of the slipcover. He also said that he would be contacting the appropriate department to have the item image corrected. If I can get them to agree that the image they show is that of the slipcover, why won't they admit that the movie has a slipcover? He also apologized for the error in their email programming and assured me that it had been corrected.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">A few hours later, I received another email from Amazon UK asking me to take a survey and rate their customer service team. Needless to say, they didn't get a very high score from me. Besides the actual slipcover, the only other thing I wanted was for one of them to acknowledge the fact that the damn movie did come with a slipcover. They may not have any to give to customers anymore, but the bloody damn movie does have a bloody damn slipcover!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Magnum Easy Eye Books in 1968</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

The Face of Frankenstein...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">
"The dull yellow eye opened. The creature breathed hard. Convulsively, it moved its arms and legs..."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">
So, after two year's work, did Victor Frankenstein, a philosophy student, see the results of his fantastic laboratory experiment. He had discovered the secret of giving life to inanimate matter and had created - with its yellow, shriveled skin, watery stare and terrible grin - a monster that would turn his own life into a walking nightmare.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">
Mary Shelley wrote <i>Frankenstein</i> in 1818, when she was only 19 years old, as a simple ghost tale - one, in her own words, "to make the reader dread to look around, to curdle the blood and quicken the beatings of the heart." Its theme, of a man's revenge against a society that rejects him, is still being exploited in novels of today. <i>Frankenstein</i> is also the source of many Hollywood movies. It remains one of the most chilling horror stories of all time.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Twisting hideously in the flaming ruins of the Mill, it seemed that Baron Henry Frankenstein's creature was finally dying. Yet once created, this life made of corpses was hard to extinguish. And then Professor Praetorius came to Castle Frankenstein. He was brilliant, and completely mad. Why stop at the mere creation of life, he said, when a new world was in the offering?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">And what of Elizabeth? Was her love for Henry to be denied in this exploration of evil? Alone in their laboratory, the two scientists fanned the flames of horror, and cared nothing for the cost.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"><i>The Spy in Bangkok</i> by Bill S. Ballinger</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Published by Signet in December 1965 (1st Printing)</span></div>
<span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I</span><span style="color: black;"> began this book without having read any of the other books in the series and was immediately drawn into the story of CIA Agent Joaquin Hawks. The story starts out with Hawks in a prison cell on an island somewhere in Southeast Asia. He was captured when he was washed off his ship during a storm and is awaiting to be executed for spying. I was immediately hooked with this opening chapter, but I am curious if the events preceding his capture were told in the previous book. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Hawks is rescued by his contact, Dak, at the last moment and they make their escape. They head on over to Bangkok and the main plot begins. Hawks has been investigating an American by the name of Turlock and his yacht, the <i>Santanya</i>, is currently anchored in the harbor. Turlock is our main villain and he's a weapons dealer who made his fortune buying up war surplus at the end of World War II. Somehow, he's managed to get a hold of some nuclear warheads and it's Hawks mission to not let them fall into enemy hands.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Disguising himself as a Mexican guitar player, Hawks gets a job at the local nightclub where Turlock has been frequenting. He also gets mixed up with the beautiful dancer who works at the club. Hawks ingratiates himself with Theda Ray (punny isn't it?), Turlock's main squeeze, and is hired to perform on the <i>Santanya</i> for a dinner party. While on board, he discovers an antique cannon mould which was recently stolen from a local museum. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Reaching shore, after being caught by one of Turlock's goons, Hawks heads back to the dancer's pad to pick up his gear, but gets into a spot of trouble when her ex-lover shows up with the local police who don't act too kindly towards him. After some fisticuffs, Hawks manages to elude the police, but has lost precious time. The <i>Santanya</i> has already left port which means Dak and his men have followed orders and are tailing the ship, leaving Hawks stranded in Bangkok.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">A few days later, Hawks reaches Sawan and meets up with Dak and Turlock. A Chinese Junk has been seen quite a bit in the area and has unloaded a series of crates that were delivered to the local mine, which just so happens to be owned by Turlock. Sneaking around the island, Hawks busts into the abandoned mine shaft were the delivery was sent to find the nuclear missiles and several large blocks of solid gold. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">They tail the <i>Santanya</i> again and watch as they dive overboard and do some underwater work in a remote area down the coast in the Gulf of Siam. When Turlock leaves for the day, Hawks takes a look where they were diving to discover an old shipwreck and Turlock's plan is made clear. He plans to melt the gold down and make cannons out of it with the mould. He'll then paint them up, add some concretions and "salvage" them from the wreck. What better way to smuggle gold back into the United States?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">A new plan is formed with a corrupt local official who doesn't quite follow Hawks' plan and the whole thing almost goes sour. But they manage to attack the <i>Santanya</i> while the salvage operation is under way, but before Agent Hawks arrives, Turlock, his goons and the corrupt local are killed. He manages to save Theda from the pirates and they head back to port where, during the night, he plants three bombs on the Chinese Junk while the warheads are being loaded. They follow at a safe distance and sink the ship somewhere in the South China Sea. Mission Accomplished.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Bill S. Ballinger wrote a total of five Joaquin Hawks adventures, <i>The Spy in Bangkok</i> being the third in the series. I don't regret reading this one, but there were a few things that I didn't care for. The most damning of them being not having a compelling villain. Let's face it, this book, like most of these spy adventures, are trying to cash in on the Bond craze of the sixties; and having such a weak villain just doesn't work for me. I mean he's hardly in the story at all and does not come off as much of a threat. Turlock is forgettable and he's even killed off-page by a minor character. While not bad, but I don't know if I'll be seeking out any of the other books in the series.</span></div>
