See how Karen Black is inviting us all, darlings????????????????????
This is the one where she plays several characters--a spinster English teacher, named Julie, twin siblings named Therese and Millicent, and Amelia, who is menaced by the killer Zuni doll in the last, and most famous story. The two bookend stories, all originated with Richard Matheson.
Baby Gojira cannot wait. And there is no truth to the rumor that he played the Zuni doll!
But my favorite in the bunch, really, is "Julie," based on Richard Matheson's short story, "The Likeness Of Julie," which I have always wanted to read. Karen Black remarkably gets the spinster stereotype right, then turns it on its head!
Here is Karen Black as "Julie." Don't study with her, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See you all, tonight at 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the Iconic Karen Black!!
ReplyDeleteSeems a shame it has become trendy to label bitchy white women “Karens”
Every Karen or Karin I know is pleasant and kindhearted!!!
“a Barbara” or “a Janet” would be far more appropriate!!!
Victoria,
ReplyDeleteKaren Black left us far too soon. To think she did this and "Nashville" in the same year.
What brilliant performances, and so diverse.
As for mean girl names, I have heard Brandy, Tiffany, and Jessica bandied about.
