Comrade Dracula

Commies! Simulated Sex! Big moustaches! The occasional vampire! These are the things that make a communist vampire film. It’s based in the 70’s, and has a really nice look to the film. This is the first non-dubbed film I have posted. Geez that only took 32 posts.

This is a slow burn film. So it’s up to you to decide – Good vampire? Bad vampire? Just a dirty commie vampire?  Which moustache will Birdy choose to love forever? You’ll have no idea until the last fifteen minutes of Comrade Dracula!

So watch!  Or don’t!  Everything is voluntary!  Next week, I will be on vacation, away from even the cell phone, so I asked STEVE SMITH if he wanted to post Bigfoot’s Wild Weekend!

    Just a dirty commie vampire?

    So, what you’re saying is, is free helicopter rides won’t work?

    Diving in!

  3. The Late P Brooks

    If I had popcorn, I’d grab it.

  4. DEG

    “Only Communist ideaology is eternal.”

    Sadly true.

  5. DEG

    I like her already.

  6. DEG

    Killed 200 bears?

    Tonio, grrizzly, Animal hardest hit.

    • R.J.

      I know. Stop killin’ bears you commies!

  7. Nephilium

    Wow, I’m sitting here when an R.J. movie post goes live. Don’t know if you saw, but Tubi has the best Paris Hilton movie ever available for free now. Repo: The Genetic Opera.

    • R.J.

      Oooo! Yay! Now I am torn between that and Black Sheep when I get back. Which sounds more promising to you?

      • Nephilium

        I haven’t seen Black Sheep, but I love Repo!

        Based on that, I was scrolling through the Horror movies on Tubi, and may get stabbed by the girlfriend if I try to make her watch too many of them.

      • R.J.

        Hot Wax Zombies on Wheels?

      • R.J.

        …And did you get permission from the War Department first???
        *Alien tendrils akimbo*

      • Nephilium

        The Troma trailers made her walk out of the room.

      • R.J.

        Sorry. Unless it was Kabukiman. Then I agree with her decision.

      • Nephilium

        Kabukiman and Nuke-Em-High.

        I’m trying to avoid going down a search rabbit hole of finding the old “special features” on the old Troma DVD’s.

      • R.J.

        Holy crapballs, Dead Snow 2 is out on Tubi. But why just 2? Why not the original as well? That movie post is gonna need a lot of ‘splaining.

    • Count Potato

      It’s not One Night in Paris?

      • Chafed

        That may be the most boring porn movie ever. It is also proof of what a raging narcissist she is.

  8. DEG

    Cognac in coffee? Hmm… interesting. I’ll have to try that sometime.

    • R.J.

      It’s good.

    • Count Potato

      I’ll put Christian Brothers in coffee if I absolutely need a hair of the dog.

  9. DEG

    Interrupted by a nice Mustang.

  10. Scruffy Nerfherder

    OT: Raising teenagers is exhausting. That is all.

    • R.J.

      Yes. It is. Honestly the exhaustion started with school at age 6 for me. I got a break at age 3-5.

    • Mojeaux

      Preach.

    • pistoffnick

      Raising teenagers is exhausting.

      I’d rather have the exhaustion of the teen-age years than what comes next: they ignore you or don’t even have time to return your texts.

      /sigh

      • R.J.

        Ugly Kid Joe did a version of that. You would think there were more covers.

      • Chafed

        What ever happened to that band?

      • MikeS

        Nirvana.

      • cavalier973

        The lead singer got plastic surgery. It just wasn’t the same after that.

      • MikeS

        +1 /sigh

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        I’m just going to be happy after I get them all through the neurotic, depressed, suicidal phase. “The Village” ain’t helping much right now.

      • Ted S.

        “The Village” ain’t helping much right now.

        So you don’t have a giant bubble to keep them from straying too far?

    • JaimeRoberto (shama/lama/ding dong)

      My dad called puberty “Goin’ stupid”. He wasn’t wrong.

  11. DEG

    The lady spy looks kinda like the vampire’s old lover.

    • R.J.

      *Intrigue deepening*

  12. R.J.

    DEG and Potato are pulled in! That’s the sign of a good slow burn film.

    • DEG

      I am. But I gotta join a zoom. I look forward to finishing this tomorrow. Thanks RJ!

      • R.J.

        Thanks!

  13. DEG

    She’s going to sleep with him.

  14. Hyperion

    Is it too early to OT?

    Oh, I see I am the only one here, so why not.

    But why?

    Why does no one want to stream tne news, the best news, the only strusted news? Do people just not want to know about the news? Must be that.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      It’ll be interesting to see the analysis of the decision making process that led to this debacle. Groupthink combined with intimidation of naysayers that didn’t fall in line with such a great idea has to be what went down. People don’t want to watch that shit for free much less pay for it.

      • MikeS

        I hope Chris Wallace opens up about it all.

      • Chafed

        #MeToo

      • rhywun

        Same shit that led to the election of Joe Biden.

    • one true athena

      and then they programs like “Jake Tapper’s Bookshelf”. The thrills!

      Although i saw someone else point out that it was also promoted terribly and didn’t allow a free trial to check out the service, so kinda a zero effort all around.

      I don’t know – now that I’m twice as cynical as I used to be I wonder if some group at CNN knew the writing was on the wall and this was their attempt at squeezing as much money from the parent co as they could before CNN’s eventual demise. These people aren’t all completely stupid – Tapper, some others, had to realize their corporate masters weren’t going to let them continue to draw fewer viewers than reruns of Three’s Company forever. So they sold CVNN+ as a ‘brave new opportunity to reach Millennials/GenZ online with our Trusted Brand” as a win-win: if it succeeded, then the cable version could stay afloat on its back for awhile, and if it failed the channel was already in trouble anyway.

      • Chafed

        The backstory is even stupider. Old CNN management commissioned a study by McKinsey to evaluate their potential audience. They really believed they could sell, literally, a streaming service.

        Proving a consultant will tell you whatever you want, McKinsey grinned up a report predicting 15 to 16 million paid subscribers after a year. For CNN. On an app. Available only on your phone.

        What the cable channel’s terrible ratings? Not a problem. What about no other news service doing the same thing? Not a problem. What about only premium (let’s use that subjectively) newspapers like WSJ and NYT being able to make a profit off of paywalled content? Not a problem.

        The same people who managed Brian Stetler were launching this turd into cyberspace. The new owners took one look at the subscription numbers and the planned one billion dollar launch cost, then pulled the plug.

  15. Draw Me Like One of Your Tulpae, Jack

    I have been invited to a group happy hour wherein a Cato Fellow will be in attendance. I wonder if I will get drunk enough to make fun of his organization, or if I will just fan girl about Scott Lincicome.

    • Hyperion

      “I wonder if I will get drunk enough to make fun of his organization”

      Well, if not, you can use your secret Glib powers to provoke him into it, or you know, slip some hard drugs into his drink, that might help.

    • rhywun

      *tap tap tap*

      Woof. Fangirl away.

    • R.J.

      I would ask the nice Cato person to sign my tinfoil hat.

    • Brochettaward

      Plot twist – you get so drunk that you end up having sex with the Cato guy.

      • Draw Me Like One of Your Tulpae, Jack

        Checks his pic…nope. I’d die from alcohol poisoning first

      • Chafed

        Both can be true.

      • Not Adahn

        I dunno.

        “A Cato fellow gave me a rimjob once. He was terrible” would be a good statement to be able to fling out into conversaton.

    • creech

      You got invited to a Capitol Hill cocktail party? You aren’t a secret agent from TOS are you?

      • db

        First cruises…now cocktail parties…

  16. Hyperion

    So Biden announces a huge economic assistance payment to… Ukraine. Fuck American citizens who are being crushed by his admin’s policies, lets’s give a shitload of money to Unkraine and let hurting American’s pay for it. This motherfucker has a death wish.

    • Gustave Lytton

      They’re almost universally traitors in the halls of power.

      • Hyperion

        They will be until this happens and that day draws closer…

        Mulching Devices Day

      • R.J.

        If you can make those lyrics work that would make a fine Zoom karaoke.

      • Tulip

        No. No zoom karaoke. Just…no.

      • Hyperion

        No Zoom period, enough of that during the week, I’m all Zoomed out from work and it’s the last thing I desire. Maybe when I’m retired Zoom weed enhanced Karaoke sounds good.

    • rhywun

      Specifically targeting Donbass with more weapons. I’m so proud.

      • Hyperion

        His boss Xi told him to intentionally crash the US economy. Job complete. His boss Klaus told him to intentionally start a nuclear war, job not done yet so he has to try harder.

      • db

        You’re kidding, right? Like anyone would expect Biden to be able to carry out even simple instructions, let alone shit like that.

      • Hyperion

        Of course, he is not doing it, he doesn’t even know that day it is and his biggest challenge is not shitting himself 3 times a day in public.

        His handlers are doing it.

        Best guess for who that is, Ron Klain and Barak Obama.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Now, with moar ethnic cleansing. USA! USA! USA!

        Maybe Biden, Blinken, Spacey, and Strawberry Shortcut can get the the Milosevic suite at The Hague.

      • Hyperion

        Maybe we can parachute them in so they can prove what heroes they are. I want that telivised live.

      • R.J.

        Agreed. Without the parachutes.

    • hayeksplosives

      I posted this on FB yesterday:

      I might be in the minority in this opinion, but I think it’s a terrible precedent for Wimbledon to ban Russian tennis players from competing in the tournament this year due to the Ukraine situation. For many years, athletics were supposed to be non-political and to remind us of what we have in common as human beings! Don’t punish athletes for the policies of their governments. Don’t expect this new “cancel” weapon NOT to be wielded against the US or some of our allies in the future.

      We had my husband’s consultation/ for cataract surgery, and his eye surgeon is a Russian woman. She has great reviews online, and we liked her too. The surgeries are scheduled for June and July. Is she going to be “cancelled” by then too?

      It’s ridiculous.

      • Hyperion

        It’s a terrible idea to punish Russian citizens, period, so that Biden can take advantage of his corrupt business dealing with Ukraine. That’s why I bought 2 bottles of Russian Beluga vodka on the very day they started this garbage.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Sadly I missed the boat on buying Russian vodka or caviar.

      • one true athena

        Worldwide moral panics are so much worse than local ones. There’s got to be a limiting mechanism somewhere, we just haven’t found it yet unfortunately.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Or fortunately. That limiting mechanism is something along the lines of catastrophe or poverty.

      • one true athena

        Sadly probably true.

      • rhywun

        My dentist is a Russian woman. Near retirement, good for her.

  17. Count Potato

    That was good.

    One line confused me. “You never seen a white man before?” Aren’t all these people white? (Well, besides the Vietnamese.)

    • Hyperion

      No spoliers, Tater!

      • Count Potato

        It’s hardly a spoiler.

    • R.J.

      My guess is bad translation. Was probably supposed to be pale. Or white supremacist.

  18. Hyperion

    Damnit, why you post this stuff tonight on a Thrurday night, RJ? Fuck, I just finished my 7th hipster juice and I promised myself I won’t take more than 8 because I have a 9am staff meeting tomorrow. This looks too good to resist, fuck, I must resist temptation, his must be of the devil…

    • R.J.

      Mweee ha ha ha ha! At least I am on vacation next week. STEVE SMITH may post the link I handed him, or do a takeover. Who knows?

      • Hyperion

        I just watched the first few minutes of that and I’m already hooked…

      • R.J.

        Of all things, I started rewatching the midnight movies of my youth. I finished Ralph Bakshi’s “Wizards,” and now I have been watching “Fantastic Planet”.

  19. Tres Cool

    Im off to work kids.
    Hold down the noise from your little slumber party.

  20. The Late P Brooks

    Well, that was different.

    *applause*

    • R.J.

      Glad you liked it. I have been turning over a lot of turnips to find newer films.

      • Count Potato

        There are plenty of good newer films, they just aren’t free to watch legally.

      • R.J.

        That’s the problem.

    For your ironically-chuickling pleasure, a synopsis of Nine Inch Nails’ 2007 album, Year Zero:

    The story takes place in the United States in 2022, which has been termed “Year 0”, by the government, being the year America was reborn.[112] It had suffered several major terrorist attacks, apparently by Islamic fundamentalists, including attacks on Los Angeles and Seattle, and in response, the government seized absolute control of the country. The government is a Christian fundamentalist theocracy, maintaining control of the populace through institutions like the Bureau of Morality and the First Evangelical Church of Plano.[113] The government corporation Cedocore distributes the drug Parepin through the water supply, making Americans who drink water apathetic and carefree.[114] There are several underground rebel groups, mainly operating online, most notably Art is Resistance and Solutions Backwards Initiative.[110] In response to the increasing oppression of the government, several corporate, government, and subversive websites were transported back in time to the present by a group of scientists working clandestinely against the authorities. The websites-from-the-future were sent to the year 2007 to warn American people of the impending dystopian future and to prevent it from ever forming in the first place.[115]

    • Brochettaward

      The Bush years were so quaint.

      I might as well throw this year. Just read this on a football site, on the Washington “Commanders” investigation after a GOP member of Congress dared to suggest that the Dems are wasting time and have no real authority to investigate:

      The respective positions aren’t a surprise. The Democratic Party typically advocates for the causes of individuals. The Republican Party commonly sides with the interests of business and corporate America.

      • db

        just…just…

        what a timeline

    • rhywun

      LOL I never heard of that – huge fan until that pile of shit With Teeth and then completely ignored everything after.

      • Chafed

        I still love them for Head Like A Hole. That helped me through a difficult time.

      • rhywun

        One of my favorite 80s bands put out an album last year with track titles and some lyrics that I’ve heard so far which seem to express a proper disgust with the current times. They have never been in any way political that I have detected so this came as a bit of a surprise.

        I hope they’re not just being “ironic”.

      • slumbrew

        Man, that’s a band I haven’t thought of in years and years.

      • rhywun

        I saw them live in NYC around ’99. My friends still rib me about what a fangirl I made of myself. To be fair, I was drunk as shit at the time.

        They churn out a lot of material still but none of it’s up to their standards from the 80s. I still look out for one or two good tracks on each new album (although I am several albums behind).

      • Chafed

        I never heard them before. It’s like a combination of goth and 80’s mid tempo rock. I have a feeling those song titles reveal their true thoughts. Any smaller band precluded from touring must be chafed. Drink!

      • rhywun

        They were played on the high school radio station I used to listen to in ’86 or ’87. One of those songs where you’re like, “I’ve never heard anything like this before.”

      • slumbrew

        You got me thinking about WLIR (the NY alternative station back in the day); they’ve got all sorts of stuff up on the web – you may enjoy this list:

        https://wdarefm.com/playlists/screamers-1980-87

      • rhywun

        Oh yeah, all my New Yawker friends raved about LIR when I got to college in Buffalo in ’89. Even in Ra-cha-cha we had multiple stations like that.

  22. Count Potato

    Thanks RJ 🙂

    • R.J.

      You are welcome! See you in two weeks!

  23. slumbrew

    Kinda cool – local hockey dudes at the SIG Academy in NH, on the local sports network.

    • R.J.

      I like the concept.

    • Chafed

      They appear to have too many teeth. Are they rookies?

      • slumbrew

        The Little Ball of Hate (Marchand) is in his 14th year. Miller is in his 10th.

        I’d wager several of those 64 teeth aren’t original.

      • slumbrew

        I suspect Marchand isn’t into recreational shooting – Miller is kicking his ass on the courses.

        Spoiler: Marchand lost the bet

  24. Mojeaux

    Aw, shit. Poor doc is crying while he’s dictating.

    • MikeS

      Because of what happened in surgery?

    • Chafed

      Is it an autopsy?

      • Mojeaux

        No. Attempted suicide. Gunshot wound to the face.

      • MikeS

        ugh

      • rhywun

        yikes

      • slumbrew

        Ooof.

  25. cavalier973

    I haven’t watched the movie mentioned, but I did recently listen to the audiobook version of the original novel “Dracula” by Brawn Stroker.* It was an interesting book. The conceit is that the story is told through journal entries and newspaper clippings. The only real annoying thing was how each of the main characters would write paragraphs about how each of the other members was the most wonderfulest person evar. Also, the men in the story are oblivious idiots. “Miss Mena is growing pale and waste-y just like poor Miss Lucy did before she expired. She must need rest. I’ll open the window for her tonight.”

    The women aren’t much better. “I am feeling poorly and having horrible nightmares. I’d better not tell anybody, otherwise they’ll worry.”

        Was that the ‘nickle’ candy bar or the deluxe 10 center? At the Saturday matinee, sometimes I had a nickle to spend, always went with the white taffy bar ’cause it would last longer. Milk Duds were a time but not in my budget

      • rhywun

        Just regular candy bars. I think they’re a buck at the grocery store too but I haven’t bought one there in decades.

      • Fourscore

        Ah, the ‘nickle’ ones. 3 Musketeers were the bargain ’cause they looked bigger, more air pumped in maybe

    Morning, Glibs.

    I’m going to see if I can call in remote today.

    If not, I’ll burn the leave instead of dragging myself into the office. I’m mostly back to normal, but still lethargic. I just wish I hadn’t sabotaged myself in the first place.

    • Gender Traitor

      Good morning, U. Did you at least get a halfway decent night’s sleep last night?

      • Gender Traitor

        That’s a good sign. Assuming you don’t have any after-hours work to do this weekend, just cling to the fact that it’s Friday and see if that helps you make it through the day.

      • UnCivilServant

        The downside is that the work I didn’t get to wednesday or thursday is still waiting for me.

      • Gender Traitor

        Yeah, work is annoyingly patient that way. ? If only it would just get bored and wander off…

      • Gender Traitor

        Speaking of work, Reliable Co-worker is taking a couple of well-deserved days off today and Monday, so I’ll have to cover a few of his daily gotta-do’s. Bless his heart (and not in the Southern sense) for taking the time during the slowest part of the month.

      • Festus

        Good! I spend as much of my free time sleeping as I am able to. It’s more interesting in there.

    • Ghostpatzer

      Mornin’, UCS. Looks to be a splendiferous day, a day off would do you good.

      • UnCivilServant

        While true, I’m still working today.

    • rhywun

      Today is a company holiday but I’m still on another day of training.

    “Drakuliks” sounds like some weird candy from the early 70’s, Like Giant Sweet Tarts, Lick-m-Aid or Bottle Caps. The brunette is firey hot.

      Maybe some creepy blood-red lollipop?

      Good morning, Fes!

      • Festus

        Mornin’ Red! New contractor is over a barrel. I spoke with their office chump the other morning and they didn’t even know that they are now running three sites instead of two. Frantic call from my erstwhile duckling yesterday. Girl, you went along with the scam, now you reap the whirlwind. You want to run a Janitorial service? Have at ‘er. I’ve got other fish to fry. This is someone that texted daily for a year and then maintained radio silence for the last three months. I’ll offer advice for free but won’t break a single bead of sweat for her new venture. You helped to break it, you bought it.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      “Lick-m-Aid”
      We had Lick-o-Stick if I remember correctly, basically tart Kool Aid you’d eat off of an edible stick that tasted like flavored chalk. You’re right, that was weird.

      • Ghostpatzer

        Also pixie sticks, tart Kool-Aid in a paper tube. Yum!

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        Paper got too soggy on those…

      • Tres Cool

        Remember the giant pixie sticks that came in essentially a PVC pipe? I used to feed those to my brother’s kids just before their 3-hour car ride home….

        Yep. You are right. Mind you that was forty-odd years ago.

    Ornin’, fellow reprobates. Mrs. Patzer is under the weather, so I played cook last night. So far, no one has died as a result. I make a mean hamburger.

      Hope she feels better ASAP. You’d best keep cooking, though, lest she have a relapse…

      Twice in the span of a week Ive made the “low carb” jambalaya that someone here linked a recipe to.

      It’s nice to have a built-in excuse to bail on these things.

      • rhywun

        Nice. My built-in excuse is that the “operational headquarters” (and therefore all the “activities”) are in Ohio.

      • Gender Traitor

        Really?? You should totally move here! If you really need a big city, Cincinnati is WAAAAAY better than Cleveland!

      • Festus

        Go golfing. Scrub the toilet. Read the back of the cereal box. Every one of those activities is more productive than what corporate had in mind. Hell, wank one off for Earth Day just to show that you care.

    • Festus

      My Electric Friends are goody! Twisting Swizzy’s tail is goody! Pointing and laughing at the contractor that wished my job away is extra goody!

    Good morning, all.

    Earth Day? I haven’t seen any earth since November, maybe today, rain should get rid of some of the snow. A Maple Syruping friend yesterday said last year they were all wound up on April 6th. This year looks like another week yet.

    Bigger northern lakes may not be open for Fishing Opener on May 14th. Take that, Climate Change!

    • Festus

      Unseasonably cold up here. Still some snow in the yard. Ice-off probably set back two weeks.

    Good Morning Fest, GT, UCS, Sean, RH et al.
    I missed the movie.
    Suns coming up, hopefully it will be a good day or night for all.
    Got a baby sheep in my office this am. Baby boy was pushing baby girl out of the way from moms one good teat. Doing pretty good on the bottle. every 4 hours.
    Since this is our first partial valley blacknose sheep. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valais_Blacknose ), her name will be “jullie” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley_Girl_(1983_film)

    The sheep i am taking to the vet today has a huge distention on her right side. and an abscess of some sort on her leg. Kinda concerned. Hopefully i can get her in the car.
    Very fun times.

    • Gender Traitor

      Good morning, ‘bodru! Home your ewe is OK! ?

      (Also hope you can link to lambie pics at some point! Maybe even video of them gamboling…?)

      • robodruid

        I can try….

        Sadly, I now spend my days on the couch. I am a recovering gamboler.

    As of yesterday recreational weed is now legal in the People’s Republic of NJ. Been about 35 years since I last indulged, so I was taken aback by the prices at the local dispensaries. $65 for 3.5 grams? The good stuff was $40/oz. back in the day.

    • rhywun

      $65 for 3.5 grams

      Yikes. Is that even enough for one joint?

      • Not Adahn

        That’s like 1/10 oz.

      • Sean

        or an eighth…

    • robodruid

      We seem to have more dispensaries here in OK than 7-11’s. I think we are a major semi-legal exporter.

      • Festus

        Up here every other corner store is a weed shop. Places that used to sell food or haircuts or laundry services. It’s quite something.

      • UnCivilServant

        They’ll start to close down as the market finds equalibrium.

      • rhywun

        I have every confidence that New York won’t let the market make any of those decisions when the time comes.

      • UnCivilServant

        I have every confidence that the legal product will still cost more than the black market supply in New York.

  33. Not Adahn

    Good morning!

    Things are suprisingly chill at work after some nifty repair work done yesterday.

    Of course, there’s still plenty of time for something to catch fire.

    NPR ran a story about how FL’s punishment of Disney was the most anti-consumer thing evah! People’s property taxes will need to go up 20%! Disney won’t be able to upgrade, modernise or expand their “wonderful” (direct quote) parks!

    And a second day of stories lamenting the demise of CNN+

    • hayeksplosives

      For the love of Pete, they aren’t prevented from doing anything (that’s legal). They just lost their extra special carve-outs that they have taken for granted for decades because THEY CHOSE to virtue signal and advocate for teaching 7 year olds about sex/gender/identity.

      Disney chose to go political on this.

      Sow the wind, and reap the whirlwind.

    • Grumbletarian

      I suspect he’s the butt of many jokes.

      • cavalier973

        I am surprised they didn’t find his crack, too

    Babylon Bee strikes again: list of things that lasted longer CNN+

    CNN+ will be shutting down on April 30, just a month after its rocky start. Truly, its candle burned out long before its legend ever will.
    Take a gander at these eighteen things that lasted longer than CNN+:

    1) A gallon of milk
    2) Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign
    3) Two weeks to stop the spread
    4) Firefly
    5) Housefly
    6) Brief, transitory inflation
    7) Seattle’s CHAZ
    8) The ending of Return of the King
    9) Your wife’s multi-level marketing business
    10) Colin Kaepernick’s enslavement in the NFL
    11) Your New Year’s resolution to get in shape
    12) Your New Year’s resolution to read your Bible
    13) Free AOL trial CD with 1000 hours of internet
    14) The COVID vaccine’s effectiveness
    15) Zune
    16) Google+
    17) James Cameron’s Avatar’s cultural impact
    18) The Babylon Bee’s Twitter suspension
    Wow! It seems like just yesterday CNN Plus was born, and now she’s already gone. Like a leaf on the wind.
