It was 40 years ago today. A little rock n’ roll musical written by out-of-work actor, Richard O’Brien, premiered at the 63-seat theatre, The Royal Court Theatre upstairs. Young actors Tim Curry, Julie Covington, Chris Malcom, Richard O’Brien, Patricia Quinn, Rayner Bourton, Nell Campbell & Paddy O’Hagan made up the original cast. 15 months later, filming began for the film version of the hit musical which would become the longest running theatrical release of all time and the greatest and most well known cult film in history.

Can we get this to 1973 notes?

Happy birthday, Rocky!

“Stopping a piece of work just because it’s hard either emotionally or imaginatively is a bad idea. Sometimes you have to go on when you don’t feel like it & sometimes you’re doing good work when it feels like all you’re managing to do is shovel shit from a sitting position.” —Stephen King

“If the thing you’re doing is funny, you don’t have to act funny doing it.” —Gene Wilder

Note to my haunting friends: almost every rule of funny can also be applied to scary.

Gene Wilder’s comedy philosophy. He never gets enough credit (because he deserves all of the credit).

Truth!

Happy Birthday Gene Wilder!

We became friends because we respected each other’s work and we like each other as people. I trust his taste and his intelligence and his point of view. I feel a kinship with him, an affinity as though he were a relative, which is very nice.

The Horror: Restaurant based on Dario Argento’s ‘Suspiria’ opens in Tokyo

The Horror: Restaurant based on Dario Argento’s ‘Suspiria’ opens in Tokyo:

You can run from Suspiria… You can hide from Suspiria… and now you can eat there, too? Huh? That’s right, kids, Dario Argento’s 1977 horror classic Suspiria, well-known for its sumptuous sets, innovative lighting and oh so Technicolor blood, has had its signature “look and feel” appropriated for a trendy new eaterie by the owners of Cambiare, an Italian bar & grill located in Tokyo’s Shinjuku nightclub district. Most “theme” restaurants are tacky affairs with the sort of mediocre food that attracts tourists and never the locals, who’ll avoid them like the plague. Having said that, I think I’d simply have to eat at a Suspiria-themed restaurant at least once…
