Stunning poster. I like how the distributor made it look like a sleazy video tape from Blockbuster.
Astonishing Tales of Terror: Rocktapussy
This film features the sizable talents of Brigette Kingsley, who is a triple threat of actor, producer and writer. Pretty incredible for her age. She has produced a stunning 30, yes thirty films (mostly romances and Christmas films, not B movies). You go! I can only hope that she does not let her acting talents go to waste, we need to see more of her in films like Rocktapussy. This is an entertaining B monster film with a fair sprinkle of sleaze to keep you all interested. It’s also a newer film which means most of you have probably not seen it. I agree with CPRM, it is hard to find a decent new B film anymore, so I consider this a rare gem in a sea of crap. I hope you all enjoy it.
So watch! Or don’t! Everything is voluntary! And I appreciate all of you who voluntarily show up on Thursdays to watch films and chat. See you next season for more films, new concepts and endless snark.
GlibFlick Second Anniversary Celebration
As long as the government is coming clean about UFOs, I might as well too. I am an alien freak. I hereby certify that this statement is just as truthful as the news on CNN.
I will continue to make this an oasis from bad news for another year. If somebody told me two years ago that I would join this site then post 100 movies in two years, I would not have believed it. I hope any aspiring lurkers can get inspired by this and start providing content. If the Gliberati tolerate my writing, they can certainly tolerate yours!
One thing, although all the links to the Glibs episodes below may work, the links to some films may be down. Sadly I am not in charge of movies coming and going on the internet. Any click on the Glibs episodes will open a new window for your convenience to avoid closing the this current post. Without any further ado, here’s the films of season 2:
Note for TBTB: I did not put film titles in italics as that many italics would make people go blind.
This film features the sizable talents of Brigette Kingsley,
She has no boobpedia page. Sad.
Diving in in a few minutes…
Very surprised at that.
I will continue to make this an oasis from bad news for another year.

CONGRATS!! 🙂
I’m enjoying a bottle of Brewery Ommegang’s 25th anniversary beer. It’s delicious.
No cigar though.
Green beans fresh from the garden fried with bacon, tossed with hoisin sauce.
JustAlmost like Wong’s**(prankster) *rings up Wong’s*
(prankster) Hello, I’d like a cheeseburger and fries, please.
(Wong’s) I’m sorry this is an Asian restaurant. We don’t serve those here.
(prankster) Sorry, I must have the Wong number!
Every true old school Chinese restaurant, except perhaps in SF or NY Chinatowns, serves cheeseburger and fries. Which reminds me, one of these days I need to order fries and a side of egg foo young gravy.
Had a pork chop tonight. Not drinking. Fridays are a major work effort now from dawn to dusk.
Saturday I am meeting old friends for a Rangers game, so that will be nice. Definitely getting a beer then.
Filet Mignon, because I didn’t want it to go bad in the fridge.
Not drinking.
Had Chicken Cordon Bleu sammich with Cajun fries and three Strohs at the bar, made a bowl of popcorn when I got home and am working on my 2nd old fashioned.
WANT.
Box rice pilaf with pre-cooked chicken.
Drinking.
Enjoying the Overwerk EP that someone posted a track of, with Browns/Eagles on mute.
That was me. Very glad to see it getting more appreciation!
Do check out the official video for Winter, off the EP. The musician did all the video work.
Watched when you linked it. Much enjoyed.
I really like the effort they made in making the synthdrums sound like drums.
It was one of the specials tonight, they need to put it on the everyday menu, it was that good.
Thursday night race followed by grilling bratwurst and drinking homebrewed beer is on tap here.
Did he just use a 19502 camera like a modern digital camera?
DLR’s are cool.
That’s almost James O’Keefe style there.
Meow
How come we don’t get news coverage like that?
Also, that Korean guy looks familiar.
Listening to the Hunter/Asian dude conversation, I wonder if Kingsley is playing herself.
And I see Hunter might hook up with a bartender…..
and commercial… at least it’s not a political ad.
Do you have enough episodes to go into syndication?
Good question. There are 102 episodes at this point. Removing (really bad) duds would leave about 90.
I don’t know whether it counts as a B movie or not, being effectively ‘blind’ in that range, but Kung Fu Hustle is great fun. Count Yorga, Vampire, scared the crap out of teenage me.
Thank you for 2 years of an entertaining regular series!
OMG fresh meat.
I was in my mid-30s when that came out – and it was one of the last movies I saw in a theater. It’s great even if it is only IMHO the auteur’s third-best film.
Kung Fu Hustle was a successful attempt to go mainstream. It remains an excellent film by any measure. His soccer film prior to that was good, but not that epic.
Shaolin Soccer is one of those movies I can watch over and over and never get tired of it.
The Cooking God is a movie from him that is a decade earlier. If I can find it I will play it.
I have it – gift from an ex. I gave it the college try but it’s not really accessible for a guailou like me.
Round eye!
Then Journey to the West would really do you in. Chinese folk lore, over 2 hours.
I haven’t seen anything since CJ7 – I does seem like he gave up on the American market doesn’t it 🙂
It’s crazy that Stephen starred in like two dozen movies before that, which I will probably never watch because too obscure, but he bears such a strong resemblance to the ex I mentioned that I kind of want to seek them out….
Hey, Shirley, saw your post the other day, and I am keeping you in my thoughts.
OMG Count Yorga! Almost forgot about that. I watched it on TV while lying on the bed in the New York hotel room of the woman who knew Hitler’s wife as “Aunt Eva.”(No, our clothing did not come off.)
Eva took her clothing off.
I was told Eva was a horny chick who found other outlets when Wolf was occupied elsewhere.
I regret looking.
“Have a blast!”
Heh.
That’s a great 40.
Yeah.
CRAZY EYES
Some of us are not movie goers but that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate your efforts. I just watch the news, that’s scary enough for me.
You don’t have to watch movies. All Thursdays are open post. Stay and talk.
I enjoy lurking. Surprisingly I don’t have a lot of free time. Well, OK, so I waste a lot of time.
And Hunter is being rescued by her new love interest
Or maybe not?
But, she is wearing thigh-highs.
Oh, he did
No spoilers!
You gotta keep up so we can properly MST3K this thing.
I have things to do.
She does need a big strong man
As enjoyable as this movie is, I am surprised she hasn’t done another. The title almost leads one to think it was a planned series.
I am a triple threat. I First, First, and First.
Well, this isn’t the first time I played a movie with a chesty star, but it is one of the better ones.
I thought she had implants.
Don’t know! Where is Q with an appraisal?
It’s pretty obvious in the bondage scene.
“Tell me more about the orgy”
Heh
I detect some shades of “Heavy Metal” here.
I know where you are! It turns into another movie for a bit. It all fit together, but felt like it was just a chance to show off that steel under bar bikini.
“Hey, how are we gonna get our moneys worth from that wardrobe piece? We’re making a sci fi film?”
“Hold my champagne…”
That was fun. Thanks.
All’s well that ends well.
I’m going to fuck up your face so much that it’s going to look normal again by the time I’m done.
Speaking of Blockbuster puriant covers, I was wondering through one in the ’90s, when firstwife was out visiting her mother for the weekend, and while looking for a good crime movie, I spoted out of the corner of my eye, your typical Blockbuster boobs flick but I noticed that it had, on the cover, two thumbs up from Siskel and Ebert. So, I figured what the heck and watched it that night. I ended up being one of the most intense, moving films I have ever seen.
Exotica.

He looks like the man with no dick from “Ghostbusters”.
Vague memories of that but wow… 90s overload.
Gov Walz is buying votes with the overtaxed money.

Yep.
How ’bout you lower taxes?
/the peanut gallery guffaws
How cheap of a whore do you have to be to let your vote be purchased by 1/16th of a budget surplus and/or $260 dollars or whatever it was?
$20, same as downtown
So very much this.
I’m off for the night. Thanks RJ!
Thanks for coming!
😮
RJ, I probably manage to watch about half of the movies you post.
Two weeks ago my wife watched Bubba Ho-Tep with me.
She thought it was hilarious, especially black JFK.
Last weekend we watched The Assassination Bureau and she like that one too.
I don’t think she would appreciate tonight’s feature, so I’ll probably have to watch it by myself, it sounds like one I would enjoy.
Yeah. Tonight is a dude film. Starring a woman who directs and stars in romance and Christmas films. You could pitch that angle? I know I am going to start looking for her when I am forced to watch Hallmark movies.
I had no idea she was in those and it’s hilarious that she is.
Local theater is showing Bubba Ho-Tep! As a midnight showing…
Not sure I’m up for that anymore.
I tried it but all the narration was annoying af. Is it worth it?
Yes.
I own it and love it. Seeing it in the theater would be cool but a midnight showing…
Have some coffee instead of your usual Sanka. You’ll be fine.
First, happy anniversary, thank you for two tears of movies, and for your commitment getting this done.
Second, Rocktopussy? Rocktopussy! 🤘🤘
You enjoy! This is a good post movie.
“Hilary Close to Hurricane Status”
No comment
Bill has a few thoughts.
I worked at a place that had a Chicken Gordon Blue burger. It was a 1/2 pound burger, 1/2 pound fried chicken breast. 1/4 pound smoked ham, 4 strips bacon, swiss, cheddar, red onion, pickles, lettuce, mustard, and Russian dressing.
Drop the pickles and pickle the red onions.
You need acid with over a pound of greasy meat.
That’s why you’re pickling the onions rather than cucumber rounds.
No blue cheese?
Corn soup and Doctor Who. Another night on the road.
Hopefully it’s not the chick Doctor.
He may talk with a lisp, but Jon Pertwee is no chick.
When is the next, long-overdue regeneration scheduled? If I’m feeling magnanimous at the time, I might just give the franchise another chance.
“I might just give the franchise another chance.”
They should put your likeness on candles.
I think this (the most recent Doctor) is one of those instances where it would be forgivable – perhaps even advisable – to resort to the trite, hackneyed cliche of erasing all that unpleasantness with “it was all just a horrible, horrible dream.” (Maybe Capaldi awakes with a start and promptly REALLY regenerates?)
If they don’t do something along those lines, and purge the people who made the decisions from decision-making positions, they might have a shot at redemption.
I epxect the BBC will instead go “It’s those filthy, unenlightened proles who are the problem.”
Can they still lock people up in the Tower?
For that matter, it’s been a while since they had a good (state-sanctioned) beheading…
Make them a part of the tour?
😃👍
I’m genuinely curious to see if the de facto boycott will hold.

Hey Boomer….your caps lock is on.
IT HELPS ME READ WHEN I CAN’T FIND MY PEEPERS.
Good morning all!
Today’s music comes from another band my late friend introduced me to. From their first album, when This Mortal Coil was the 4AD house band, It’ll End in Tears.
A Single Wish
Not Me
Good morning, Shirley!
The first song is certainly getting off to a lovely start! 😊🎼🎶
Good morning! Yes, most of the album is along those lines. Then there’s ‘Not Me’ to rouse the spurned 😉
Well, I’m certainly roused, though as far as I know I haven’t been spurned.
👍
👍
I adulted with Filigree & Shadow.
I missed my chance to get the boxed set, much to my regret. Love all 3 albums, but probably love It’ll End in Tears the most.

Sorry fellas, you knew what you were buying and you’re idiots. Honestly, the courts are going to defend those morons who buy magic beans now?
Is there any way to punish both the buyers and the sellers?
Nipple clamps and a flogger?
What ever happened to Caveat Emptor? Anyone that’s ever bought a used car knows the seller isn’t selling because the car got too good of gas mileage.
What ever happened to Caveat Emptor?
It died when Latin was replaced by Ebonics in the standard curriculum. “Gotta get paid!” is the new mantra.

Nice! The barkeep strongly resembles my sister.
Mornin’, reprobates!
RJ, thanks for posting these gems. I’m usually otherwise occupied in the evening, but I appreciate having this reference available; I do love me some B movies.
Good morning, ‘patzie & Sean! Gratified that you both still join us of an early morning even while you’re on vacation! 😎

“Hey old people! Don’t be dumb!”
I get scammed every year on April 15th. Then the local governments send me a bill so the waifs can learn to read and write. I’m waiting.
No shit. I get daily calls from nice young men with the same odd accent, offering to reduce my credit card debt, reduce my cable bill, pay off my student loan… Variations of something for nothing. I think “don’t be greedy” might be more appropriate – it’s tough to scam an honest man.
If my creditors haven’t caught me by now, I’m home free.
Gov Walz is sending me back some of my own money, can’t beat that. Better than my brother in law.
One of my not-so-dumb annually-required training modules at work is on preventing/stopping elder abuse, and one of my co-workers, our resident Anti-Fraud Goddess, has to be ever vigilant. In addition to the often tech-based “stranger danger,” far too many older folks are victimized by trusted caretakers and/or members of their own family. 😟😡
I won’t link it unless it’s not in the am lynx, but I will pull this quote from a super technical guntologist speaking sciencewise:
“This fatal incident was the consequence of the hammer being manually retracted to its fully rearward and cocked position followed, at some point, by the pull or rearward depression of the trigger,”
So you see, Arek might NOT have pulled the trigger, because a rearward depression could also have made the gun go boom.
Accidents happen. Same as a 6 year old with a gun in school.

Simple fix – eliminate all armed federal agents.
The IRS doesn’t need guns.
Mornin’ all.
My computer was awake before me. I put it to sleep last night, and woke up to it being on. I’m a little behind on patches/updates, but I suspect there is something the Linux folks didn’t thoroughly test.
You’ve been hacked! Do a bitwise overwrite of all your drives, then scrub them with steel wool!
Drill and thermite.
Mornin’. Did you check the thermostat?
Morning. A happy Friday, at least?
