Earth Girls are Easy

I haven’t shown any movie screencaps in ages but now it’s time again!

Earth Girls are Easy is seriously one of my most favourite movies ever. It’s about a manicurist played by Geena Davis (who I love) and three aliens that crash their ship in her pool. She works at a salon with the best name ever, Curl Up and Dye, and her best friend, played by Julie Brown (who by the way must have one of the most perfect bodies ever), gives the aliens human makeovers.

This movie has everything, great music including the B-52s and Depeche Mode, makeover scenes, a crazy dream sequence featuring scenes from Jean Cocteau’s La Belle et la bête, and last but not least an insanely sexy Jeff Goldblum with a magic “love touch”. And it’s really really funny.

I remember watching it with my dad as a kid and always remembered the title and the furry aliens and that Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum were in it. I looked it up again one or two years ago and I’m really glad I did. I just want it to go on forever and when it’s over I want to watch it again! It makes me want to live in the Valley in the 80s and be friends with Julie Brown.

Horror movie tips

Posted May 29, 2010 at 17:52 CEST in Movies.

I’d like some tips for cozy horror movies! Ones that aren’t truly horrifying and and make you feel sick, but rather pleasantly scary. Stephen King’s It is a perfect example, and I’m partial to anything with werewolves or ghosts and classic 80s horror movies.

BUtterfield 8

BUtterfield 8 is such a visually beautiful movie. Elizabeth Taylor might be the most beautiful woman ever in it and every set seems designed only to enhance her beauty and colouring. The movie is also pretty much a non stop parade of beautiful coats, a coat even plays a significant part in it. While Elizabeth is amazing in BUtterfield 8 (and apparently won an Oscar for it) I must admit I wouldn’t be interested in it if it wasn’t for her.
