Agree on 'Sweeny Todd' Spookymufu.....IMO Depp's worst thing ever.....I like most of his work.
He was great in 'The 9th Gate'

I think the 9th gate was underrated. I got a chill or two out of it.

Personally, I think it's better. It's definitely more upbeat. It's rock music, but if you don't care to see men in fishnets and heels, look elsewhere, lol.

Interesting Random Fact: My brother is actually NAMED Remington. Yes, it is after the gun.

in movies and or TV (for comedy even better) okay, but walking down the street, no. :)

theres a theater around the corner from me that has this on the marque all the time, if they're actually playing it I might check it out, or just rent it.

Bored the other night so we went out to one of the Halloween stores already open in the Cincinnati area and started getting ideas about what we wanted to be this year

Remind me not to walk down your street then...well, then again, I don't think it's wise to dress in drag and walk down any street in Texas in drag. lol.

Anyway, I would definitely recommend renting before jumping into the midnight show. It's really hard to pick up on the story and dialog when the whole theatre is yelling at the screen.

yeah, you should probably stick to boy clothes, unless it's Halloween :)


I am not even sure if thats still a theater, it might be a converted pool hall, it's had "Rocky Horror" on the marque for years.....might have just been the last thing it showed before it went out of business....I should look closer next time I go by there which shouldnt be too long from now, Spirit Halloween in right next door and should be opening soon

Your costume looks absolutely great. It should be fantastic when finished. Please post pics.

I have ventured into doing a female charater only 3 times other than The Ugly Duchess. They were:

I do to! I like spider movies like Taratula, Arachaphobia, Kingdom Of The Spiders and so forth.

However, I prefer them on the screen and not on me! Lol!

By the way Witchy, what are you going to be for Halloween?

Better get going!

I was thinking of being a Ms. Freddy Krueger. Not original, but I need and excuse to buy the glove without seeming like I'm creepy.
