Some movies are a marvel in simplicity. Great for the sheer reason that they work on a primal level. Tobe Hooper's 1981 classic Funhouse is just such a movie. It just works and the creature is great. Some poor elephant man gone wrong. Being brought up by carneys will do that to you every time. Their carneyness will pollute you and turn you into a bloodthirsty, horny monster.
Man, parasitic twins are the best. Who wouldn't want one of these. Your very own Belial to carry around, watch movies with, and rip people who generally annoy you into spaghetti! Well, although I unfortunately can't provide you with your own psychopathic mutant in a basket I can and will provide you with one of these sexy prints!
This little interaction is classic:
Casey: [In the Bar] There's something I've been dying to ask you. What's in the basket?
Casey: [Duane and Casey both laugh] So what happened? Somebody shrink him?
Duane Bradley: No, he's deformed. A freak, he's like a squashed octopus.
Duane Bradley: Our mother died giving birth to us. He was attached to my right side. They wouldn't let us go to school or anything. They kept us hidden. We were the 'big family secret'. Everybody hated us, except our Aunt. See, he likes the dark. He doesn't like to be seen, not even by me sometimes. And you know what else?
Duane Bradley: [Casey shakes her head] He talks to me. [Points to his head] Up here. Without words. I just hear him whispering in my brain. Sometimes he talks for hours and wouldn't shut up. I used to be able to talk to him like that, but that was when we were still connected. Our Aunt said it was our special gift. But since we've been separated, I can't do it anymore, but he can still do it to me. In fact, he's even better at it and he always knows what I'm thinking.
Duane Bradley: They didn't want him to live. But he fooled them, he just got stronger. If you only knew what it was like. Duane and I kept hidden from everyone. We're both so messed up. I don't know which one of us is worse.
It's been forever since my last post but Ive been painting like a damned fool and here is the first of my new paintings all ready for ya!
Ah, the Pumpkinhead. Brings back so many fond nightmares. Love the witch in that one, all wrinkled with willowy limbs and wrinkle skin. And one of the coolest movie rhymes ever!
“Keep away from Pumpkinhead, unless you are tired of living, his enemies are mostly dead, He’s mean and unforgiving, Laugh at him and you’re undone, But in some dreadful fashion, Vengeance, he considers fun, And plans it with a passion, Time will not erase or blot, A plot that he has brewing, It’s when you think he’s forgot, He’ll conjure your undoing, bolted doors and windows barred, Guard dogs prowling in the yard, Won’t protect you in your bed, Nothing will, from Pumpkinhead.”
How bout that for some chilling shit! Anyway watch the store on this one cause it'll soon see T-Shirt status.
