Water, Water Everywhere


Keep some towels handy because it's going to get wet around here. For the next three days October Kill Fest celebrates water, water everywhere, as in death by H2O.

Starting things off tomorrow will be a short montage celebrating ... well maybe that's the wrong word. This is Kill Fest month so the montage will be all about death in the water so I'm not sure I'm celebrating that. But I am celebrating movies that portray it. After all, some of them do a great job at it. Anyway, this being a kill fest montage it will obviously contain multiple scenes of death and killing so if you're not into that kind of thing don't watch but if you've seen a movie rated higher than PG at some point in your life then I can't see a problem. And it only uses thirteen movies, same number I chose for my pictures of the stars, because I'm a loser and thought thirteen would be a cool number to go with for October. And as an added bonus, the title could easily double for an underwater porn movie. Sometimes you just get lucky.

On Friday, a couple of waterized pictures of the stars will go up and on Saturday an eight minute film from the same source I've been getting all those ridiculous Christopher Lee clips from. Only this one is Lee telling a chilling tale of death by water. The video and pictures that make up the film come from the same mysterious source but the music was overlayed by me from composer William Stromberg. I hope you enjoy it. It's old fashioned, as in it simply relays a horrible turn of events and then ends by saying, "Even now as you walk by..." and so on. I think Lee does a fine job with it.

And if I think of anything to throw in in between it all, I will. The banners will carry on the water theme as well. So let the Kill Fest celebration of Death by Water begin. And the lifeguard is definitely OFF DUTY.

That banner is tops! Poor Ben Gardner... this world was never meant for one so beautiful as he. Him. Whatever.

Shark!

Thanks Atomo-Man.

Sure it's sad about Ben but just remember that Alex Kintner now has the daddy in Heaven he never had on Earth. Old Ben always did want to take care of somebody.

I'm glad Ben's keeping an eye out for the boy.

One part hydrogen, two parts OHHHHHHHHnooooo.

As you can tell, I'm soaked about your watery hype.

J. Anton Phibes Lapper said...

Ben's a hell of a guy. You really gotta socket to him for that.

J. Anton Phibes Lapper said...

Thanks Adam. I always knew you were no drip.

I was trying my best, Jonathan...

The Awful Dr. Orlapper said...

You should have said, "I was just soaking it all up Jonathan."

Come to me if you need any more help.

bill r. said...

You boat I will!

The Awful Dr. Orlapper said...

Now you're on board!

bill r. said...

Boats!

I'm drowning in your ingenuity. Don't go off the deep end.

His blog runneth over. Such fluid prose!

Insert water pun here, he grumbles.

I've not yet tapped into my potential.

After 17 comments I thought it would be fun to dive in and swim with you guys, but the level of discourse looks pretty shallow and tepid. I guess I'll have to wait for Marilyn for the deep splish-splashing to occur.

This comment thread is getting water logged. Better put up the movie.

I just surfed over here to drink up all the deep thoughts about water and to see who's making waves today, but it seems to be a sink or swim environment based on the reservoir of puns you can spray out. I wash my hands of you all!

Off to drown my sorrows.

The Awful Dr. Orlapper said...

Bob, that was tsunami of puns, a tidal wave of punnery. I certainly hope that's not an undercurrent of bitterness showing through.
