Ms .45 (1981) directed by Abel Ferrara and starring Zoë Tamerlis!! A film I have always considered a perfect example of exploitation cinema in the 80s. I also own a t-shirt for this one!!!

#Deucember Day 10:

Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS (1974) starring Dyanne Thorne and George Buck Flower. It’s funny to me how notorious this film and its follow ups were considered at the time when I just think they’re just utterly ridiculous. Like an episode of Hogan’s Heroes with fake blood and nudity.

Scored one of my Holy Grail movie posters. Baby Rosemary!!! Despite the pleasantness suggested by the poster, John Hayes’ Baby Rosemary is an utterly bleak boner-killer with unarguably the GREATEST climactic funeral home orgy in the entire history of climactic funeral home orgies. STOKED!!!!!!!

Dave Cockrum’s Futurians! Was so excited to reread this again but it’s a super high grade unread copy so I’m gonna be one of those guys & have it hermetically sealed in my sarcophagus in the giant pyramid I’m building in my backyard despite the city of Phoenix‘s concerns. I want to live by my rules!

Was finally able to catch up and clear my box at my LCS today. That’s 87 comics right there. Well actually 85 because I already read Saga and Something Is Killing The Children. Also, got 22 issues of Thor from Heritage. If you need me I’ll be reading until the end of the world. #wethotAmericanbeef
