Monster, Monster – Devil is a Loser

And here’s the most important thing to remember as we move into Halloween itself. The creepy stuff is fun, it’s great to have a thrill or two, but ultimately evil loses out. I know, I read ahead the the end of the Book. So on that note: HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Introduction to the Monster, Monster series […]

Monster, Monster – Be Chrool to Your Scuel

Saving the best stuff for near the end and this is one of my absolute favorites. Dee Snyder and Alice Cooper, plus a cameo by zombie makeup king and sometimes actor Tom Savini (who also did all the makeup effects for the video). In addition to Alice, other (off-screen) musical guests on the song included […]

Monster, Monster – Thriller

Come on, you knew this had to be on here somewhere. The long version too. MJ may have been a sick puppy, but this short film by John Landis really was one of the first to bring home the full potential of the music video as complete short form film, with production values rivaling those […]

Monster, Monster – Pet Sematary

The Ramones take on Stephen King? Why, yes please, I’ll have a bit of that! Introduction to Monster, Monster series here.

Monster, Monster – Living Dead Girl

Just realized we are 26 days into this and haven’t had any Rob Zombie. Let me fix that. Introduction to the Monster, Monster series here.

Monster, Monster – Monster Mash

Let’s start the work week off right with this little number by Bobby “Boris” Pickett. As often as it has been covered, I suspect there are a few folks out there who’ve never heard the original (this video was made about 20 years later, to go with the original recording). Introduction to the Monster, Monster […]

Monster, Monster – Are You Ready for Freddy?

So it wasn’t just goofy hair bands getting into the act with the burn-scarred maintenance man. In the 80s, Freddy was everywhere and even hip-hop artists, The Fat Boys, got into the act. Introduction to the Monster, Monster series here.

Monster, Monster – Saturday Morning Cartoon Edition

Today’s feature isn’t just suitably creepy, it’s also historically significant for being the very first Silly Symphony. Introduction to the Monster, Monster series here.

Halloween Nerdicure – I’ve Gone Batty

My latest nerdicure turned out so cute I was compelled to share. It’s a base layer of Nicole by OPI in Freshly Squeezed, topped off by Espionage Cosmetics ‘Nailed It’ wraps in Batty, which has a clear background, unlike their other wraps. I topped the whole thing off with a single coat of clear Sally […]

Monster, Monster – Welcome to my Nightmare

Alice’s signature tune. Sadly all copies of the clip from the CBS special with Vincent Price seem to have been pulled from YouTube, Boo!!! This is, if I have to guess, from the Trash tour. And because you can’t have just one rendition, here’s Alice and some much furrier monsters performing this one on The […]
