i could have sworn i saw a light
Once again longsunday has brought to my attention that everyone may not know about an atrist that I'm enamoured with.
So, I present you with Joseph Arthur. He's got a gorgeous deep and sometimes creepy voice that you can totally get lost in. (And here's where I have to admit that, yes, most of these songs make me think of Supernatural, but what doesn't lately.)
In The Sun
Invisible Hands
September Baby (live)
Ashes Everywhere (live)
and, a cover of Wild Horses
While we're on the subject of covers: Josh Ritter covering Leonard Cohen, Chelsea Hotel #2.
And, a zip with bunch of random songs by Cary Brothers 'cause I'd already uploaded it. No need to let such things go to waste.
Looking up the DVD release date for Slither (Oct. 24, why do I have to wait so long, why?) yesterday got me thinking about bad movies that are awesome. I'm not sure Slither is in this category since it seems clear that . And awesome. So, without further babbling.
My list of bad movies that are awesome (to the point that I don't actually think of them as being bad):
• The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension - A half Japanese half American comic book hero, genius scientist, brain surgeon. And he's a rock star! He's the guy that every little boy wanted to be when they grew up. And there are aliens from the eighth dimension, named John. And Jeff Goldblum in a cheesy cowboy get up. And John Lithgow and Christopher Llyod being wonderfully crazy.
• Top of the Food Chain (though the DVD is called Invasion for some reason) - This movie is on so much crack, zombie alien things, bathtub scenes with mannequins, fabulously crappy dialog "the lumpy bumpy section of town outside of town".
• Repo Man - I quote this movie so much it's not even funny, it's become part of my vocabulary. Emilo Estevez's best work. No, really. White suburban punks, aliens in the trunk of a Chevy Malibu, characters named after beer. And just so many little things like all the food products being generic and all the incidental background chatter and radios playing etc. being highly amusing. This is definitely my favorite on the list so of course I'm having the hardest time acturately describing it.
• Cemetery Man (Dellamorte Dellamore) - The most cracktastic zombie movie ever (or maybe not ever, but that I've seen recently). Zombie boy scouts, zombie sex (though not with the boy scouts) and Rupert Everett feeling generally put upon about the entire situation. Working in a cemetery where the dead rise after seven days is so tedious. Oh, and he's got an Igor-like sidekick. Oh, and it's and Italian movie but all the dialogue is in English just to add to the odd.
So, tell me flist, what are you're favorite bad movies that are awesome? 'Cause I know I should be able to think of more, but I can't.
The things you discover when trawling imdb:
• Nathan Fillion and Katee Sackoff in the same movie! (femmenerd we must see this together. Somehow.)
• Jensen Ackles, Clea Duval and Sean Patrick Flannery in the same movie!
I am so shallow, I don't even care what these movies are about but I am so going to see them.
eta: This vid is so many kinds of awesome I can hardly even deal with it. It's set to Hey Pretty by Poe and it's about the Impala. So much sexy shiny love!
