R.I.P Davy Jones

Rest in Peace, Davy Jones. Marcia and I will miss you.

Happy Halloween!

Netflix is now… Qwikster? Wait, what?

What kind of company changes their name without getting the twitter name first?

So, this isn’t really a beauty related post but I found the whole thing so funny I’m posting about it anyway. Today I got an email from the CEO of Netflix that was part apology and part LOLFEST.

Ali Lohan’s Face Turned into a UFO and Took Off

I don't know, man. I just don't know.

I feel bad for Ali Lohan. Her relatives are annoying as hell. She has been in her sister’s shadow since she was very young. Her mother is obviously doing a poor job taking care of her children. But today news sites and blogs all over the web are saying, “What the hell did Ali Lohan do to her FACE?”

My Top 5 Favorite Horror Moments

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark

“Melissa, why are you such a weird person?” you may find yourself asking. Well other than wonky genetics, the answer is that I spent entirely too much time as a child watching strange movies and television shows. Many of these quality films were hosted by Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. I love that she is coming back and will be hosting 26 horror films on a new series called, “Elvira’s Movie Macabre” which will debut on September 25. In celebration, here is a short list of some of my favorite horror movie moments.

Important Information About The Zombie Plague

They're coming for you, Barbara!

Zombies are undead humans that belong to the zombietus genus of the family Murderae. These are the most dominant ghoul species on earth. There are several species of zombies in the world. Most undead are carnivorous, but some are omnivorous. In general, there are two basic types of zombies. They are black or roof zombies and Norway or brown zombies. Both are thought to have originated in Asia and are now widely distributed throughout the world.

Prop 8 Overturned

Equality for All

Prop 8 has just been overturned. I just wanted to post about this quickly to say how happy I am that equality has won here in California. Much love to you all!

‎

Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same sex couples.

Read Arnold Schwarzenegger’s statement about today’s Prop 8 decision.

Music I’m loving right now: Lissie

These two covers from Lissie are really wonderful. Plus I found them via David Lynch, which is pretty funny. If David Lynch says something is good, then we should listen. What are music are you loving right now?

More music from Lissie after the jump…

Godzilla Will Mess You Up

Don't mess with Godzilla.

Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures released an image showing Godzilla’s new look at Comic-Con in San Diego. The film is slated to be released tentatively sometime (perhaps, who knows, maybe) in 2012. Not much more info is known other than that. I like this new look for Godzilla. He looks more like himself and more menacing than the trash unleashed upon Matthew Broderick in 1998. I like to forget that movie ever existed. You should too.

Crabs: The Human Sacrifice

Stabby, stab, stab!

I found this image while reading the Caustic Cover Critic’s blog and nearly spit out my Diet Coke. I had no idea such a great series of novels existed in this world. Seriously? Giant Crabs attacking humanity? And they are forced to use tiny (to them) knives in order to take their human victims? Err, I suppose their giant claw hands are tired from all the killing.

See more of this and other great book covers over at the Caustic Cover Critic. Quick, before the Crabs get you.
