Lost kills me

Noname 002 000 105-1

I mean, it, Lost is seriously starting to do my head in. Or maybe, it's its crazy fans.

The question before us is, who the heck is Henry Gale? Or rather, the character played by Michael Emerson, the man who claimed he was Henry Gale. If you're a Lost fan, you're with me so far, but this is where it gets very strange.

First of all, Michael Emerson appeared in Lost back in Season 1, as the janitor in Hurley's - and Libby's - mental hospital (see picture). Fair enough, we expect such intertwining. So it seems like quite a few of the islanders may previously have been cooped up together.

But there's more.

According to IMDB, back in 2004 - that is before he appeared in Lost, Michael Emerson appeared in a short film entitled The Lost Season playing a character named - wait for it - (sic) “Henery Gale”.

Now, the only other mention of The Lost Season I could find is here, and it makes no mention of Emerson, so it looks like a plant in IMDB - but by who? and why?

And if that isn't enough, “Michael Emerson” is also the name of the character played by Jason Patric in.....The Lost Boys!!!

Ugh! Head... exploding...

I am a Sex Addict

Here is the trailer for Caveh Zahedi's new film, I am a Sex Addict, which opens this Wednesday in New York and this Friday in Portland, and is making it's way around the country now.

I am a Sex Addict won the Gotham Award for "Best Film Not Playing at a Theater Near You" where Caveh used his acceptance speech to urge independent filmmakers to take more control over the distribution of their movies.

Shortly after winning that award, I am a Sex Addict was picked up for distribution by IFC Films, so it is both sad and ironic that the film is now caught in a turf war between billionaire Mark Cuban and Comcast, which caused Cuban to pull the film from his Landmark Theaters chain.

"You could say that if we became huge, we'd risk becoming a Microsoft. But if we become huge, we want to become more like a Linux." Uh huh, sure, Mark.

Read Zahedi's blog to stay on top of the ongoing situation.

Help me identify a movie - SOLVED

Rockybucky150
This is a competition of sorts, because I'll give a $20 Amazon gift certificate to the first person that helps me out.

I'm trying to track down the name of a movie I saw as a kid I suspect that it's a 50s or 60s movie, or maybe a TV movie. Here's what I remember:

  • It's about MALE twins that perform in a circus as acrobats.
  • One of the twins is a good guy, one not so much
  • One of the twins commits a murder, but the jury is deadlocked because they can't tell the twins apart and can't lock away an innocent man, even though they suspect the bad twin did it.
  • Subsequently, the “bad twin” dies in an acrobatic fall
  • The twist at the end is that it's revealed that it was the good twin committed the murder.
  • At one point, the twins both date a woman who can't tell them apart
  • I believe the twins were called George and Jules, and I maybe they had french accents?
  • I THINK it's black & white, but I may just be remembering watching it on a B&W TV.

So, you'd think with all that, Google or IMDB would be able to nail it, but - nothing. I've thought about this movie on and off for 30 years, so anyone that can help me find out what the hell it is, I'd be very grateful, to the tune of $20.

And why am I asking this now? Because this story about Bucky Covington reminded me of it.

UPDATE: well, thanks to Uncle Rico for suggesting “Chained for Life”, but no, it isn't that one, even though it sounds similar. The twins in my movie are men.

2ND UPDATE: You guys rock. Here's the answer, thanks to Terry.

Vot Music Ve Make...

Ae 3
I missed this one on eBay - an authentic 19th century Romanian Vampire killing kit, including stakes shaped like crucifixes, a mallet, a prayer book and bottles for holy water.

What the heck? This can't be real, can it? Call me a doubting Thomas, but it seems a little too convenient that this thing will ship from Transylvania just as this gets underway. (via BoingBoing)

Who's Your Daddy?

“This main course is finger lickin' great!” You'll get no arguments here - the new video for Benny Benassi's “Who's Your Daddy?”. NSFW, but in a totally clothed kind of way. (via Fleshbot)

Come again?

Here's a new viral ad for Hotxt, where a young lady gets her satisfaction from multiple text messages. Proof that, as we've always known, ad agencies don't so much create , as reinvent. Again, and again, and again.

All Princed Up

Prince All Mixed Up

Check out this amazing 70-minute nonstop mix of Prince songs made by a DJ/fan. The skill behind this mix is amazing. The Flash version of the site has some low-quality samples, but you really need to download the mix to hear it in all it's hi-fi funkiness.

The new Prince cd, 3121, is also excellent.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 5]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
