"Rosemary's Baby"

Rosemary's Baby (1968) is a highly rated horror film, some say possibly the best ever made. It is currently rated 7.8 of 10 at IMDb, and was critically acclaimed. It was directed by Roman Polanski, and stars Mia Farrow in the title role.

Mia Farrow as Rosemary is half of a young couple who moves into a new apartment in a building with a frightening past. Their older neighbors befriend them, and when her husband starts having good luck with his acting career, they decide to start a family. Rosemary passes out, and wakes up with scratches. Her husband says he got carried away and his fingernails needed clipping. At any rate, she ends up pregnant. We see the rest of the film from Rosemary's standpoint as she begins to suspect her neighbors are witches, and want her baby. This is the type of suspense scare, where we never really do see the evil, but slowly realize what is going on along with Rosemary.

Mia shows partial breasts and buns, and there are also breasts and buns close-ups of her character. The way these are cut, it is likely a double. The film garnered many awards and nominations, including the Oscar for best supporting actress. I have to say that it was effective the first time I saw it, but does not hold up at all for a second viewing. The DVD quality is mediocre, and the special feature interviews weren't especially interesting to me. This is a C+. If you haven't seen it, and like the suspense style of horror, give it a watch.

    • The yellow asterisks indicate that I wrote the review, and am deluded into thinking it includes humor.
    • If there is a white asterisk, it means that there isn't any significant humor, but I inexplicably determined there might be something else of interest.
    • A blue asterisk indicates the review is written by Tuna (or Junior or Brainscan, or somebody else besides me)
    • If there is no asterisk, I wrote it, but am too ashamed to admit it.

    .wmv files made by Scoop from Shiloh's .avi's.

    NOTE: because of a unique combination of circumstances with the Windows media player and some substantial bandwidth theft, we will have to do all of our movie files in zip format. Left click on the files as you normally would to view a picture. When you get a choice, click on "save", and put it on your hard drive in the directory of your choice. UnZIP and play from there.

    I know this is not especially convenient, but it allows the film clips to continue. I can protect .zip files from hot-linking in the same way I can protect still images. For some reason, if I protect .avis and .wmvs from hot-linking, they will not play in the Windows media player, and I can't get a satisfactory work-around. Perhaps I will find a better solution, but for now this new policy allows you to continue getting the movie clips you want to see, which is much preferable to my abandoning the clips altogether.

     

    Kama Sutra, Part 2

    Not a great movie, but a pretty one. And a pretty sexy one as well. Yesterday: Indira Varma. Today: Sarita Choudhury

     

     

    Perhaps these tips will help if you have trouble with the codecs for these movies:

    Shiloh says:

    FYI when I hypercam vids to make the file size smaller I use DivX MPEG-4 Fast-Motion for the video compressor, then I use virtualdub to compress the audio. The properties for the vids says the video codec:  DivX Decoder Filter & audio codec:  Morgan Stream Switcher which I'm not familiar with. When I compress the audio with virtualdub I use MPEG Layer-3.  A friend of mine told me about compressing the audio about (6) mos. ago. Like I said previously, only been capping for a year & a half & I'm no expert. Hopefully this info will help members with the proper codecs for my vids.
     
    When I cap big brother's I use hypercam mostly & sdp & asfrecorder if the set up allows me. I stopped using camtasia cause the file sizes were always too big, could never figure out the process, over my head lol, plus it cost too much to buy in my opinion.

    A reader says:

    You mentioned that some users were having trouble with the videos on your site. There is a tool designed to determine what codec is needed for a video. http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ Hope this is useful to you or your users.

    Scoop says:

    I made the .wmv versions of each video. The codecs for these: Windows Video V8, Windows Audio 9. The upside of these is that you know the codecs, and they'll play in the Windows Media Player. The downside is that they are slightly larger, and slightly lower quality.

    Crimson Ghost
    NOTE: We currently have to do all of our movie files in zip format. Instead of viewing them online, save the zip files to your hard drive in the directory of your choice, un-zip and play from there.


    First up from the Ghost today...'caps and clips of Linnea Quigley and Michelle Bauer in scenes from "Assault of the Party Nerds 2: The Heavy Petting Detective" (1995).

    • Linnea Quigley, topless and a adding a little humor to her love scene. (1, 2)

    Next up...A couple of vids from the Mickey Rourke movie "Year of the Dragon" (1985).

    Scorpion's Skinemax
    First up, from the direct-to-vid flick "Boa vs. Python" (2004). Call me "old schoo" if you must, but I miss the good old days when mega-lo budget evil monster movies used bad make-up and creature effects instead of lame CG. But moving on to what really matters....former Heffer (July '96) Angel Boris looks great nekkid and shows off breasts and bum (plus I think I see a hint of pubes too).

    "Son of the Beach" babe Jaime Bergman (former Heffer-January '99 and she was also the 45th Anniversary Heffer) stars as the hero and shows a little bikini cleavage.

    The Sci-Fi channel runs this one from time to time, but of course without the nudity.


    Next up...the soft core flick "Model Lust" (2003). This is one of the many recent Skinemax flicks that features several ladies normally seen in movies found in the back room of the local Video Shanty.

    • Hardcore babe Diana Espen aka April Flowers baring all 3 B's. (1, 2)

    • Holly Hollywood aka Stacey Leigh Mobley...another triple B performance from a XXX star slumming it on late night cable.

    • Juliana Kinkaid, another adult actress giving up all the goodies. (1, 2, 3, 4)

    • Mary Carey, the porn star and former California Gubernatorial candidate going full frontal and showing off her natural big'uns.

    • Susan Hale...breasts and bush in #1, all 3 B's in #2. (1, 2)

    • Diana Espen, Holly Hollywood and Mary Carey all 3 show some skin (some more than others) while doing a 3 way lebso thing.

    • Holly Hollywood and Mary Carey, plenty of B's in another lesbo scene. (1, 2)

    Variety
    Jennifer Garner The "Daredevil" babe showing some serious pokies in scenes from an episode of "Alias". Garner returns to the big screen next year in "Elektra" (2005).

    Alexandra Paul The former "Baywatch" star going full frontal in scenes from one of her early movies, "8 Million Ways to Die" (1986).

    Ludivine Sagnier The young, beautuful and fabulously all natural French babe topless and baring her bum in scenes from "Water Drops On Burning Rocks" (2000). The movie itself is dreafully dull, but Ludivine's scenes are very much worth watching. 'Caps by Dragonscan.

    Maria Checa
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

    		Señor Skin 'caps of the hot Latina and former heffer (August '94) baring breasts and bum in scenes from "From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money" (1999). About the only thing this movie has in common with the original film is the name. But you can read all about it in the Scoopy.com review.

    Scoops,
    Here is a link that leads to a site with four clips of Aylar Dianati Lie doing some guy. Aylar is the Norwegian beauty contestant kicked out of the Miss Norway contest for "appearing nude in a commercial venture." Uh huh. She sure appears nude to me.

    PARIS HILTON'S CHIHUAHUA RETURNED
    Paris' Press Agent Had Her - Paris Hilton's Chihuahua, Tinkerbell, which often appears with her in public wearing a pink fur coat and designer doggie sneakers, has been recovered alive. The dog disappeared a week ago, and Paris put up posters all over West Hollywood, offering a $5,000 reward. After a ton of media coverage, someone returned Tinkerbell, but it's unclear where she was or how she managed to get away.

  • But I think we can all understand WHY she wanted to get away.
  • Tinkerbell came back alive because we all BELIEVED...
  • This is West Hollywood: are they SURE this is the right pink fur coat-wearing Chihuahua?
  • Oh, and in other news, we're still at war in Iraq.


    TRUMP INTRODUCES NEW "TRUMP" GAME
    Chairman Of The Bored - Wednesday at Trump Tower in New York, Donald Trump and Parker Brothers launched an updated version of his old board game "Trump." Players circle the board, bidding on resorts and office buildings, paying with $1 million bills with Trump's face. The cards have business advice from Trump on them, and if you want to stop someone from bidding against you, you can play a "Trump" card with the magic words, "You're fired." At the end, the player with the most money wins.

  • So it's like the game of Life.
  • The most money and the youngest trophy wife.
  • For Trump, the object is to get a Monopoly on publicity.
  • Instead of a dog, a top hat and a race car, the game pieces are little bikini models.
  • From Trump, you learn that finance is like men's gymnastics: you can fall on your butt and still end up with the gold.
