"Stir of
Echoes" (1999) Stir of Echoes
(1999) stars Kevin Bacon as a blue collar family
man with a wife (Kathryn Erbe), a 5 year old son
and a baby on the way. His "new age"
sister-in-law hypnotizes him at a party, and
plants a post-hypnotic suggestion that he open
his mind to everything. He starts seeing the same
things that his son has been seeing all along.
What unfolds is probably best called a
supernatural thriller. It was fairly
well-received by the critics, but faired
less-well with IMDB users. Some loved it, and
others didn't see anything to recommend it. I am
in the second group. For me, the plot was
predictable, and not at all startling. Whenever I
disagree strongly with the critics, I try to
figure out why. I think, in this case, it is
because I don't find the idea of hypnosis at all
unusual, nor does contact with spirits of the
dead upset me. For me, there was nothing
frightening in this picture. Clues were given
from the beginning about where the plot was
going, so predicting the next development was not
at all hard.
Acting was fine, the photography was dark, to
set the mood, but was interesting. There was
nothing really wrong with the pace. In fact, this
is not a badly made film, but for me, it was
about as exciting and suspenseful as watching
dust accumulate on the furniture. The exposure is
from Kathryn Erbe in two places. In the first,
she is making love with Bacon, and her robe keeps
separating and giving glimpses of her breasts. In
the second, she is getting ready for her bath,
and the ghost is sitting on the tub, although she
can't see it. Note that we don't see her face in
the bath scene at all, but this could have been
to avoid full frontal. I have no opinion as to
whether this bath scene is a double or not.

TomCat |
Jr. here....Normally TomCat does
up some raw images and Johnny Web puts them
together into some nice collages for us. Well,
ol' JW is out for a few days, so in his place
I've picked out a few of TomCat's raw 'caps
cleaned them up a bit, and here ya go. Please do
not judge the cleanup work...I'm no where near as
good as JW when it comes to that stuff. Just
enjoy the 'caps. And while I'm at it...I think I
might just help out with the reviews...provided I
can break away from the never ending coverage of
my fellow Los Angelinos being nutty and
protesting at the Democratic National convention.
....On that note, my favorite highlight today
was just after they cleared out the crowd. The
"protestors" gathered in front of the
Staples center today to protest Police Brutality.
In the after math, after the police were very
non-brutal with their crowd control, one of the
local news guys grabbed two dudes from the
gathering for an interview. Trust me, they were
dudes!
So...our local Ed Morrow on the streets in his
quest for truth asks the two dudes if they were
members of a specific organization, and if so,
how many of that organization were in attendance.
Dude #1 replies...'I've been a supporter of
environmental rights for more than 20 years'
Dude #2 replies...'I've also been an activist for
environmental rights, but mostly I support the
legalization of medical marijuana.'
So Ed reminds them that the protest is against
police brutality. To which one of the dudes
replied 'I'm not afraid of getting arrested.'
More proof that weed can be fun once in a
while...but if you smoke it too much you turn
into a mostly brain dead, sandal wearing,
non-specific activist dude.

Images today from:
"Six Days Seven Nights" (aka "Let
Ford fly his own plane, and put Heche in a wet
t-shirt for 2 hours").
"Psycho" (aka "Let's make a
remake so much like the original that no one will
want to watch it because everyone has already
seen the original and there's simply no point in
spending the money other than to put two of the
hottest Hollywood celebs in the same movie
because that will sell tickets")
"The Juror" (aka "Let's take
the book of the month, 'adapt it for the screen'
-doesn't really matter if it's Martha Stewart's
favorite recipes or a psychological thriller- put
big name stars it it and badda-boom, it's a big
budget feature")

In comparison with most of Lorenzo Lamas's
other ex-wives, she's hardly shown any nudity on
camera at all. (either still, or film). Here she
is topless in these relatively rare 'caps from
"The Art of Dying". Kinmont (1,

Valeria Bruni
Tedeschi
Sister of supermodel Carla Bruni. I liked all
of the raw 'caps that TomCat sent over, so I
figured why not post 'em all. Even though they
are from the same scene from "Les
Menteurs", there is enough difference
between them to not be a frame by frame account.
Honestly I threw them all in simply because I
really like her breasts. Valeria (1,

Comments by PMS:
This one came as a folded up poster in the CD. I
tried hard to clean it up, so I hope you won't
mind the mess I made of it. I take my hat off to
all you other guys out there that clean things up
so beautifully. I knew it would be hard, but not
that hard! |

Very nice topless images from

a.k.a. "The Mountain of the Cannibal
Gods". #2 features Ursula being prepared in
a seasoned butter sauce. |
Lisa
Barbuscia |
This one was posted a few days
ago, and as we finally figured out...it actually
is Lisa Barbuscia, and not Lisa Bonet. UC99
extends his thanks to everyone who helped solve
the riddle. For the collectors, he renamed this
file with all of the appropriate names. Bonus
info from Sleuth...
"Lisa B" {as she's usually known}--real
name, Lisa Barbuscia--an American born babe who's
fairly famous in England as a pop singer. She
also used to boff Mick Jagger {but then, who
hasn't?}. She shows up in the "Jet Set"
columns in Europe all the time. Used to be a
fashion model in the Eighties.

Topless (of course) 'caps from
"Night Fire", by Don Bun. Don mentioned
in his email how surprised he was at the poor
quality of the DVD transfer. |

Topless vidcaps from "Six
Ways to Sunday". I've never been a fan of
her looks, her voice, or her acting
abilities...but she does have big boobs, so I
guess that earns her partial credit. |
Julia

A full metric ton of cleavage from "Erin
Brockovich". 'Caps by Dann. |

Another look at the nip slip.
From the reaction, I'm guessing this is pretty
big news across the pond. Over here in the
states...the Fun House is the only place I've
seen it mentioned. Over here...we're all about Christina, and N Sync. We can't waste
time on that old stuff! I mean that's like sooooo
1997. |
