We discussed it on a Girls On Film podcast episode a back and if memory serves, it was mostly me just saying "I can't really say just how much I love this movie."<br /><br />Love me some Strait Jacket, the matchup is just TOO perfect (and the Silence of the Lambs connection makes it even more golden). And George Kennedy sweating in black and white!<br /><br />Sadly I really didn't like Trog, but I think Crawford completists will still get something out of it, especially since she's blond and talking to an ape man.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-7795100803959838372011-06-09T09:36:02.839-04:002011-06-09T09:36:02.839-04:00Ahh, Baby Jane.

Davis and Crawford may have hated each other, but they rocked the devil out of that movie.<br /><br />Strait Jacket is 31 flavors of awesome! Joan Crawford working the most carny man in all of movie history, William Castle? That's a slam dunk if I ever saw one. Which was carried into the sublime with a sweaty George Kennedy.<br /><br />I haven't seen Trog yet, though. I must remedy that. Joan Crawford rocks. That's all I need to know to watch this movie.Burgundy LaRuenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-3394381440292322952011-05-27T14:51:08.394-04:002011-05-27T14:51:08.394-04:00I WISH John!

One day I'll have to read a Crawford biography to try to gain an understanding of how JC's took such an unfortunate turn after Baby Jane- which is still one of my favorites.John Marcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616296400880495672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-52829953907515337332011-05-27T10:01:35.397-04:002011-05-27T10:01:35.397-04:00I'm there!I'm there!deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-76435602799758294222011-05-27T08:14:26.928-04:002011-05-27T08:14:26.928-04:00Planet of the Violent rape Men : Pants offPlanet of the Violent rape Men : Pants offTangerineDream9noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-86392165157970844252011-05-27T07:39:59.831-04:002011-05-27T07:39:59.831-04:00Nigel/Matt: Planet of the Violent Rape Men could b...Nigel/Matt: Planet of the Violent Rape Men could be a mashup all of its own...<br /><br />And Mike, gah!
