Colonel Sanders : IN A MOVIE?

Colonel Sanders shows his goods!
 Yes, It's true. Watching another Herschell Gordon Lewis Film left me in surprise when I saw it.Apparently here in Australia the Pre-cert video is worth a fair bit, but the movie itself is a bore fest, and If I was going to give it a review I would Give it 1 out of 10, But this cameo appearance is something else! Last time I gave a bad review for a boring, no-plot movie a lot of people hated me and that video was around $400 on the market at the time (must have been for its artwork). So no review here, instead the plot of a very, very boring film with a misleading title;
Blast Off girls (1967) : A sleazy record promoter tries to make it big with a local Chicago garage band and plans to make them famous while keeping the profits for himself. 

Its such a shame too, normally I love Herschell films, I have seen so many - but this is his disappointment. 

And so you don't have to endure the biggest boredom I'll just cut this film and show you the best bits, the the master himself dancing! 



Sure some people hate this guy, I don't know.. something with the KKK, making people fat (even though it's your own decision to eat certain food), putting in msg, making more money than you. 

But the fact remains this guy invented a recipe that was too good to keep to himself, he started off as a failure and is still a great icon. At age 65, Sanders' store having failed, he took $105 from his first social security check and began visiting potential franchisees. At the time he had over 100 items on the menu- I can' even imagine what kind of chicken goodness was around back then.Sanders sold the Kentucky Fried Chicken corporation in 1964 for $2 million to a partnership and his face was to be printed for all eternity. So next time you set your teeth into a big juicy piece of KFC ( No longer called Kentucky Fried Chicken- you bastards!), just remember the genius who invented it, and put everything he had on the line to make it big and can dance better than any drunk I have seen at a pub. Long live the greatest chef in the world!

Turning the clock back to : Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin Albums


This past fortnight or so I have been totally into Janis Joplin. Her voice is so strong, her clothes are beautiful and oddly enough when I was playing my guitar I would refuse to play any of her songs and wold say "what's so good about her". But being appreciated of the best now, I understand why. Not only did she invent original songs that so many others have remade and claimed as their own, re-invented Big Brother and the holding company, and she is the rebellious free spirit that pretty much had the same behavior as me when I used to party hard. Sadly, she passed away on October 4th 1970 by an accidental overdose at the age of 27. If you like her music, here are some links to download. Her best selling album "Pearl" (which she got her nick name), and Janis at woodstock.

PEARL

1. Move Over
2. Cry Baby
3. A Woman Left Lonely
4. Half Moon

10. Get It While You Can

Dreading the Chritmas Bells

 Crummy Crappy Christmas
Oh boy, here we go again. Open till 9pm, sale on now, dad will like this, shop at officeworks, buy this, get a loan, eat a ham, invite the family over, get happy, tinsel, drink coke , pretzels, fruitcake, gingerbread, carols by candelight with mothers clapping baby's hands together on the idiot box, home alone soundtrack, sports on t.v, must get more presents, stress in the kitchen, call up long distant relatives, badly made egg nog..yeah..Christmas here.
When I was a child Christmas was great, the weather got warmer, arts and crafts at school, Christmas movies were awesome, Id learn a Christmas song on an instrument, and countdown till the night we would go outside and look for Santa hear a bell and come inside for heaps of Prezzies! and a big European dinner with lobster and a large family to make it even better staying up late till we couldn't anymore. ok, that was amazing.
But I get older, the presents get stale, I fork out hundreds of dollars and effort making my own Christmas paper, decorating the house in lights, then santa dies, you have to help cook dinner, the family gets smaller, you get even older spend even more and now hate European Christmas food.
Years go by and now your older than ever, the family is smaller, the presents are so bad you throw them all away, work overtime for nothing, cook the entire dinner, decorate everything yourself, argue with everybody, can't even go shopping, you now hate mothers, guilt and shops, comercialism gets worse, they make you shit and worry before halloween about the most "wonderfull" time of the year, there is a sale everywere even though the prices havent changed at all, everyone drives crazy, only get Christmas cards from ex-boss's, ex-friends companies you don't give a shit about and for what - a shitty ass Christmas.

I really don't wast anything to do with Christmas this year. I feel shitty every over day of the year, why would this one make me happy. Our family stinks and I have a constant reminder that its all my fault that my older brother is a ragging abusive alcoholic and I told him I never want to see him ever again. Even though my parents told my grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, and everyone else to fuck off. Work is stale and dry with no bonus holiday time, home alone isn't as much fun the 1,00000 time watching it, we won't eat lobster for dinner, granddad won't get me unique overseas presents, hell I won't ever see him again. And being a satinist really pisses me off with all that God, jesus guilt shit, although there is a satanic christmas thing it still annoys me. And Charities! Fuck- give, give, give! If I want starving kids in Africa, homeless people, or less privileged people in this world to have a better Christmas I will donate to the cause itself not some shitty tax ride-off, vulture grabbing cunt charity. Look at big chain stores - Buy a gift from our store, put it under our tree and we will give it to some hospital or salvation army kid that wont get 100's of presents. Why can't the store buy the presents, or donate 10c from every purchase or something, they make millions every year and they make You buy from Thier store for guilt and make you feel like a hero.

So call me what you want but bar humbug, fuck Christmas this year I'll watch one Christmas special and bad santa, work my ass off collecting dead people feeling like a cunt, and go out for dinner. No presents, no stores, no carols, no Czech dumplings, no itchy hats, no alcohol, no religious guilt,  no Crummy Christmas!
What Christmas used to mean to me: 
Happiness and Family:
 What Christmas now means to me:
Unhappy Commercialized guilt

Mills Movie Madness review: The Rose

Mills Movie Madness review
Today's movie is:   THE ROSE (1979)

Nominated for 4 Oscars. Another 4 wins & 5 nominations

PLOT:
Bette Midler plays "Rose", an artist strikingly similar to Janis Joplin. The film follows Rose's career during her last tour. Her rock and roll lifestyle of Drugs, Sex, and Rock and Roll and constant touring lead her to an inevitable breakdown.
 BASICS:
The story of the tragic life of a FICTONAL self destructive female rock star: the Rose, modeled after Janis Joplin.
Mills Rating:  9/10
Any fans of music, rock stars, self-destruction and life stories – then this is for you. I love this film for so many aspects, it has eye candy (Alan bates with that haircut and smile..nom, nom), beautiful and ever talented works of Bette Midler, similar traits to Janis Joplin (who I have related to and idolized for many years), amazing costumes, and a wonderful soundtrack. You would never have guessed that this is a fictional character, Bette plays so well that you want to go out and buy rose records and get a time machine to see a rose concert. I remember seeing this as a kid and loving this movie even though my mother constantly told me what was going to happen in the next 5 minutes and said how bad her character was. I loved the character of the Rose, and still do –some thing even remind me of some of the crazy things I have gotten into myself in my life. Unbelievable vocals, sassy wit, and sense of style, what’s to hate? Not even Britney or Paris was this wild and talented. Not many films make me cry, or leave me glued to the screen so much, and without any intermissions. This is defiantly on my favorite movie list. Must see if you haven’t seen it, if you love or hate the hippie era, and if you don’t like Bette – you will now. So there is no excuse for you not to go and see it!

If you like this film:
Try watching:
"La Bamba" (1987)
”Sid and Nancy” (1986)

 

Things I wish I NEVER ate

Its funny how you don't realize how many bad foods there are out there. I've been sick so many times ive lots count. Food poisoning isn't fun. It was when I was a teen, it meant time off school and a new diet that didn't fail. But some cases were to bad to explain. Maybe this list will help me out:

Things I wish I had never eaten:
  • One big lot of pure marzipan
  • Extra salty Philippine tripe dish
  • Mouthful of Raw ginger
  • Two sticks of butter, rolled in sugar (its true)
  • whole 4 lt.'s of ice cream for desert
  • 10 cups of vanilla frosting (this is not a good idea)
  • food in a restaurant, after there was a cockroach on the table
  • food in a restaurant, after I was the cook go to the bathroom and not wash her hands.
  • That Chinese chicken dish from a Chinese restaurant in Cranbourne (food poisoning)
  • rolls of sushi till I threw up (looking at over 50 of them)
  • lasagna my brothers ex fat-slut girlfriend made (was sick for 2 weeks)
  • Purple chili's, that aren't for human consumption
  • an ice cube covered in vegemite, and rolled in sugar (was a dare that made me sick)
  • Cat food mixed with peanut butter (another dare that made me sick)
  • Cream cake that my brothers ex fat-slut GF made (pure cream, sugar and choc cookies pounded together then frozen -doesn't make a cake!..its just cold fat that makes u spew)
  • Two mouthfuls of fat collected from a griller of bacon (all I could eat-ewwww!)
  • A rose covered in bugs and sprayed with pesticides. (Not all flowers are edible)
  • my mums curry dish (just water and gravy with worst vegetables..not a curry!)
  • Uncooked corn pancakes made incorrectly
  • raw chicken
  • 5 -day old pizza, re-heated 3 times (mega food poisoning here)
  • 8 McDonald cheeseburgers for a snack (I'm telling the truth here)
  • Off milk
  • A Rotten apple with half a worm in it (made me sick for days, never touched an apple for4years)
  • A bee
  • One big Dirt clod
  • every bit of food that made me throw up on a date and made me look like an idiot
  • KFC at karingal, (Frankston-cranbourne rd), dried out, over oily, food poisoning

One of My Best ever chicken recipes!

One of My Best ever chicken recipes!

This one you have to try out!
You can make chicken skewers, or use the sauce to marinade drumsticks. But the best thing to do with this is make bits size pieces and serve it with rice. Yummy yum stir-fry!
This is an ancient Chinese recipe passed down generations; I got my hands on it and decided to modify it to today's standards. I love making this at BBQ's. So tonight, I will tell you my secret recipe.
First off, you must understand the techniques of Chinese cooking-ok this takes years to master. But the key thing to know is that it's all about smell, and using the five senses to understand the food of which we work with. If you can get the marinade right, About the third time of making this, you will know if its perfect just by the intense smell.
You must marinate this overnight!(I place all the ingredients in one a bowl with plastic wrap in the fridge) If your desperate, 6 hours might b alright,but longer the better.
NOTE: If you want a rich sauce, double the recipe.
  • 4 chicken thigh fillets (cut in half, and in 1cm bite size pieces)
  • Chinese cooking wine (2 tbls)
  • Soy sauce (2 tbls)
  • Oyster sauce (1 tbls)
  • Dark soy sauce (1 tbls) this is richer and heaver than regular type
  • 5 Spice powder (2tsp)
  • Sesame oil (about 2 tbls)
  • Some Finely sliced ginger or better let the minced jar type (2tsp)
  • ½ cup honey (doesn't matter if its no band type)
Garnishing (will put these aside and use later on)
  • chopped chili (I use one large red one, gives enough spice, but everyone to their own taste)
  • ½ the juice of a lime
  • shake of salt
You can buy most of these ingredients at Safeway. But Chinese cooking wine should be better if u buy at Asian grocery store. I go to KFL, at Springvale. (At Springvale center) cooking wine is like 90c. For a whole bottle, and other ingredients are about ½ price from regular supermarkets. The people there are nice to help you, so never be afraid to ask, they like it when you want to cook Asian.
Ok, now lets cook!
1. Heat wok with peanut oil
(if you don't have a wok, like I used to be like, just grap regular pan what u would make a stir fry with)
2. Add chicken slowly, don't overfill the pan.
(I add a little bit at a time, and place cooked chicken on foil lined pan and keep warm)
You have to cook till the chicken is cooked well in the middle. Don't let it brown just as yet, but is ok of u let it bubble and the sugar from the honey will form a thick sauce.
Don't stir too much, or will all fall apart. Mix it till coked in a lifting motion.
3. After Finished cooking all the chicken, add some more oil to the pan clean up all the left over sauce, and add garnishing (chilies, lime and salt)4. Stir in all the chicken, mix well.
Better to lift, and toss, instead of  stirring it all. This way the sauce wont burn, and the chicken wont lose its flavors.
Should brown now, and soon some black parts will appear. These black parts which are forming are the best part, gives it that charcoal taste. But don't let too much form, cause will burn and takes like something from a 16year old teenage Australian daughter's BBQ.

This tastes similar to satay chicken. It is so simple to make, people will never believe you could make such a dish!

Why 2K?: Going Forward In Reverse

This is written by Draconis Blackthorne of the satanic hurch. I hold no responsibilites whatsoever, this is posted simply because more peolple should read it. All credit and praise to Draconis.

Why 2K? {part 2}: Going Forward In Reverse
An Appreciative Remembrance & Application of Past {Un}Orthodoxies
Draconis Blackthorne.

Was there indeed an "apocalypse" on Y2K? It seems that yes, upon retrospect, there actually was a so-called 'apocalypse' after all. It came insiduously in the form of a de-evolution in the entertainment industry, where now, more than ever, with very few precious exceptions, mediocrity is heralded as the accepted 'norm', and society as a whole has suffered from it.

Upon observation, methods of expedient communication have improved via the interweb, proving beneficial for some personal and networking purposes, as well as diminishing unwanted herd interaction.

The 90's {not counting most "grunge" scrap metal; which was essentially the return of the 'hippies'}, 80's, 70's, portions of the 60's {not counting 'hippie' dregs}, and much prior from visual to audial amusements, were of an exceptional value in some way, defining these generations to some extent. This is further evidenced in the plethora of music and films which have been creating endless 'sequels' and 'covers' {both acceptable and inferior} from that prior to Y2K. In many cases, it seems the creative well has run dry, and/or standards have declined, with egalitarianism to blame. Even performers from many desirable past orthodoxies have been returning, with some truly enterprising sponsors bringing them about. The ultimate benefit of this is to bring attention to the original presentations, facilitating their acquisition.

Aesthetically, particularly from the Noir through to the 50's, even the herd were more presentable, with attention payed to accoutrement and haberdashery - it displayed pride in one's appearence.  How unfortunate it must be for current herd generations to be so devoid of such character and quality. It is now necessary to go 'forward in reverse', as it were.*

Fortunately, as Satanists, we instinctually preserve what is truly of {personal} value in our own timeless worlds, from whatever eras of choice of whatever genre, utilizing whatever methods and instruments of presentation, from technologies of whatever means.

In My world, I prefer most everything to appear artfully "antique" {whether actual or replicated; see the Emerson Entertainment system}, while imbued with modern technology, with the obvious exception of genuine collectables. Besides the CD and DVD player, the vinyl record, the cassette, and VCR players are in use,  sometimes digitizing them as needed, and if possible, even eight-tracks in some cases, ideally some "vintage" recordings played on an actual victrola and/or grammophone - the so-called "haunted house" aesthetic, which is in itself timeless {think Dark Shadows & The Addams Family with a personal touch}. Again, if not actual, certainly in de-facto.

Fortunately, favored presentations are more widely available for possession to be viewed at our leisure, devoid of the letharginator, commercialism and propaganda. It is certainly possible to time travel and exist in this manner devoid of contemptorary influence. To submerge oneself completely in the "past", which is one's present. Dress the part and speak the lingo, or "Walk the walk and talk the talk".

All time is now, so references to "the past" are excluded, thus preserving the entertainment fresh, which are both evocative and invigorating. Even if one has lived through these eras, there is much which has been created which has not yet been experienced containing that certain particular 'current', so it behooves the selective timeless connoiseur to choose superior evocations and pursue these with gusto.

* Consider the visual dynamic of the wheel, when spun fast enough in a forward motion, it will appear as if it is moving backwards, when it is actually moving forwards, thus creating a favorable momentum.

Top 5 reasons why it’s BAD to be an Undertaker



Yes, it’s true with all the limelight at parties, seeing dead celebrities, seeing what its like to put your head on train tacks, knowing what the funeral industry is really like, and having hundred of stories to tell, There is a downside to this job, here are the;
Top 5 reasons why it’s BAD to be an Undertaker

  1. The gross things.
    Purge, The smell of purge being stuck in your head for days, blood clots sticking to your arm, awful gasses, human waste, mysterious stains on your clothes, blood on your shoes, cleaning day old facieses, picking up 4 day old plus bodies in houses in bad situations such as the toilet, pool of blood and vomit, stuck to a recliner from too much blood, breaking bones into place by accident just to name a few.
  2. Getting sick
    Getting Germs and having life term illnesses for collecting the dead is pretty serious; I am amazed that my bosses wont do random health checks or vaccinations. You can catch a lot from blood, gasses, touching skin, having air and particles to breathe in. You might have some disease in your body and won’t know about it till your 100 years old. A major risk in the industry and is highly overlooked. I hate getting colds and sick from nursing homes, and still having to go to work. .
  3. Feeling like the Bad Guy
    Have you ever gone into somebody’s house and they drastically hold onto you and yell “Please, don’t take my baby, I am nothing without them..Please!”, well you get it -and it’s a horrible feeling. You actually feel like Jeffery Dahmer on trial and the family is yelling at you for killing their loved ones. Especially on chritmas. It really kicks the depression in, and makes you feel like the Grimm reaper. Even if you accidentally do something wrong from doing your job- covering their face with a sheet, taking them away head first, wearing gloves, tagging the body – people can get upset and argue with you, when there is a family of 50 it turns out like a war. The title “undertaker” cannot be told when somebody has just lost a loved one, (You don’t know until they ask and then they tell you) and at that point the awkwardness and depression kicks in again.
  4. The fat people
    Ok, I’m not talking about the 100 kg guy on his bed. I’m talking about the 300kg plus guy who just happened to die on the floor in the back of the house where there are small hallways and things to smash into. Bad backs are the least of this problem, as you cannot even wrap them in a sheet, or put straps on them to carry them out of the house, it get worse too when they get stuck in the hearse, need 6 people to transfer them onto a cleaning tray, or they break equipment.
  5. Taking the toll on your body
    This job takes a harsh toll on your body, which I believe some things will be damaging for life in the long run:

  • Back problems
  • Getting sick
  • Depression
  • Lack of sleep
  • Working up to 16 hours a night on one shift
  • Not getting paid correctly
  • Letting age take its toll
  • Having to eat at 3am, skipping regular meals
  • Hand cramps, eye strains from endless paperwork at night
  • Driving while tired for hours
  • No breaks if busy – this could mean 12 hours straight
  • Moving the obese and diseased
  • Arguing with mean bitch nurses
  • Heavy lifting
  • Injuries on the job that cannot be taken care of
  • Having to work when sick because of “lack of staff”
  • Missing out on social, family, amazing events because you haven’t slept in 2 days
  • Being the “Ugly one” in the morning after working over 13 hours, meeting the beautiful, refreshed morning crew at funeral homes
  • Having your boss repeatedly remind you that you are now the “ugly one”
  • Only having fast food as an option for starvation
  • Unavoidable physical damage: Bags, wrinkles, latex reactions, boils on your face, bad skin conditions, eczema on your hands, rash’s, sprains.
  • Getting into bed after your shift finishes, only to get out for another 3 hours because the next staff rostered on are too tired to work and you wont get bonus pay.
  • vicious Backstabbing and lying co-workers

Gig Night Review: ATTACK OF THE MANNEQUINS

The count down began and 10 days went too long for me, But I finally went to see "Attack of the Mannequins" again, and it was worth the wait. Probably the number one reason for why I have been shouting out to everyone to see these guys is because: They Rock! I have been to far too many gigs to know what is good, and Attack of the Mannequins are great! I will defiantly be seeing them again. This time I was pretty much the only one dancing, but knowing lyrics (having their single blasting on repeat  in a hearse for 2 nights) made it more fun. This time round I was lucky enough to get another single, but signed by the whole band, and got a meet and greet with photos. Wonder why I have never done this with other gigs?: Because they were not top quality. I really hope that these guys get noticed in the big league, because they sound like it already. The video I managed to get doesn't have the best audio (standing in front of the biggest speaker will do that), but check it out to get a preview of what the band is like. Also check out their site or facebook  (if you haven't already) for music samples and gig guides.
Get out there, get more out of life - Go
out to a gig!
