Santo and Blue Demon vs. Dr. Frankenstein
It was a crazy week for me, topped by hanging out with the Tall Thin Spaniard what Lurks* for cigars and bourbon instead of writing up my movie post. So my tarot reading was right! “Selfishness, the crowd, body politic.” But things worked out. Some previous hard work and communication paid off. This week, some really great things happened (Not all due to me):
- SP got out of the hospital! I can’t really top that in news, but I can nerd out about films, below:
- Lloyd Kaufman put some of his classic Troma films on Tubi! Yay, peer pressure!
- Shout! Factory TV released a whole series of Luche Libre films, with dubbing and subtitles. Wow! That was overdue.
So this resets a lot of what I planned on doing this week and forward. I was torn on what to post next and went Lucha Libre. Lloyd gets posted next. The older Luche Libre films on Tubi lacked both dubbing and subtitles, and the sound was murky. So unless you were a native Spanish speaker you’d have a hell of a time figuring out what people were saying. The ones Shout! TV released look like cleaned up prints and they have my favorite feature…. Bad dubbing. Oh my God it’s so bad. On Santo: Fist of Death it sounded like it was dubbed by a disinterested high school drama class, which erased the entire soundtrack – sound effects, everything, and just overlaid their malaise dubbing. Also that film was edited by a blind man so you feel like you are on acid after watching it for an hour and a half. Only the boobs kept me going.
So hell yes! That one will be reviewed later. Today, I am reviewing Santo and Blue Demon vs. Dr. Frankenstein (trailer provided). I like these team up films with Blue Demon. It’s like a buddy movie for Luche Libre. You may still want to take some kind of mood enhancer of your choice before viewing, because this is a hot mess of fun. If you are unfamiliar with Luche Libre films, rest assured this is the way they normally go. Suspend all belief, those who enter here! As a primer, I included links here for El Santo and Blue Demon for anyone unfamiliar with the world of Lucha Libre.
So about them Oscars – Since Will Smith sucker punched Chris Rock, I thought I would pose this question – what would happen if you sucker punched this man? Blue Demon looks like a real-life Brock Sampson, and he had the skills to back it up. We could end Hollywood one scissor kick at a time.
I have no idea how I got this post done, but I am happy. And yes, it is not the Three Stooges. Once again they go to the back burner!
So watch! Or Don’t! Everything is voluntary. Next week is Class of Nuke’Em High, because I asked for it and I got it!
(*) Tall Thin Spaniard what Lurks is one of the many lurkers I have identified who may never comment or post. Others include Bethannica, The California Crowd and Retired Rambo.

So?
Mmmmmmm, melted cheese . . . {insert Homer Simpson drooling sounds here}
Wait… what are we talking about? What about those guys vs STEVE SMITH?
I have not yet found one vs. a Sasquatch. But! I did find and partially watch “Bigfoot’s Wild Weekend” which will be posted soon.
I’m going to be watching Clone Hunter. I started watching it last night but I nodded off. It was just weird enough to make me want to know what happened. Also, why is it rated R-18? I don’t recall any boobs.
Don’t know. Let us know if the ending was worth the wait.
Mebbe somebody gets their bosom cloned?
Just spitballin’ here.
Anyone hear about Amazon’s Astro yet? It’s a little robot that can roam around your house 24/7, equipped with video and voice recording and facial recognition. For only 1K you can get yourself one. I mean who wouldn’t want a personal spy device filming and recording you and everything in your house 24/7?
I prefer Tralfaz.
Speaking of Amazon, I just hit the button to cancel Prime after 14 years. Buh bye.
Well done! I may do the same. I keep judging the value, and I still order too much.
We did three months of an Amazon fast, found it relatively easy (I bought 2 or 3 things that I couldn’t find elsewhere/I couldn’t find in the ballpark for price, but that was it), and decided that it’s $130 better to sit in our pocket. Biggest things we’re gonna miss are the photo service (for the grandparents to see the kiddos) and one or two Amazon exclusive kids shows. *shrug*
Next up on the chopping block is Disney+, but that doesn’t renew until January. We’re already quite a ways into collecting the necessary DVDs to make the transition easier.
I found Disney to be easy. I transitioned right off after Mandalorian. If I want to buy movies I do either DVDs or buy on Apple. With Tubi Blowing it out on movies I find I never watch Amazon, unless it’s Grand Tour or Jeremy’s Farm.
I bought several items in about a month recently where I found a better price and free delivery next day and started to wonder it if was worth it. I got 2 items delivered next day by Best Buy for a better price and I have no membership with them, than on Amazon and started to wonder why I am paying for Prime? But there are still some things I have only been able to find on Amazon for a decent price and deliverty time. But I am finally starting to wonder if it is still worth it…
The one that stands out for me is that my puter’s PSU blew up and I needed to replace it fast, you know because I use that thing to work, and I could not find a single PSU on Amazon that I could get in less than a week. But Best Buy delivered me one the next morning, and actually the one I wanted, and they even came and knocked on my door the next morning to make sure I got it, something which Amazon NEVER does anymore. I consider it lucky if they even put it at my door.
Not only has Amazon very much regressed to the mean on price and convenience, but we’re trying to stop buying the cheap Chinese shit on there anyway. I’d rather spend 20% more to get a better product from a local supplier or spend 10% more to get the same product from the manufacturer than give my money to Bezos and gang.
“stop buying the cheap Chinese shit”
Yeah, I ain’t going for it, I’ll just pay more for quality.
Nice! I want to do it. But I gotta wait for them to deliver my Aerogarden 24XL first. They actually gave me $150 coupon for that, which I was very happy about. So I’m a miss it sometimes for sure. But I got the free inside residence delivery for free too, and if they do what they did with my TV, knocking on the door then running away as fast as they can, I might cancel Saturday because of that. I will definitely go on an epic tirade on their ass.
Aerogarden 24XL
Jealous! I have a regular old aerogarden in the kitchen growing basil, dill, and a couple flowers. I also have an aerogarden adjustable light panel in my office growing a pitcher plant, an orchid, and various cacti and succulents.
I have the Bounty Elite sitting besides me here on a shelf, but it grew insanely fast and the lettuce is crowding out my maters and peppers already (day 22), so wife and I talked about it and decided we need a bigger unit and move the tomatoes and peppers into that. So I ordered the Farm 24XL. I don’t have any outdoor space right now, I do but it’s not possible to grow stuff because of the old growth tree canopy. So indoors is it for me now. I’m also looking into the iHarvest. After that I’m going DIY.
I’m a heavy user. I see no cancellation in my near future.
The one thing I really like about Prime is that it’s search feature also reaches into a number of other streaming services, some of which I had never heard of but aren’t bad (like IMDB TV).
Many years back, Azteca America used to run films in the lunch hour, and I got to see a couple of Blue Demon films even though I understand relatively little Spanish. One, Los Campeones Justicieros, had a plot involving midget wrestlers and a bad guy kidnapping the contestants in the Miss Mexico pageant. The other El Hijo de Alma Grande was set in Belize with a plot of aliens needing human eyeballs to power their spaceship to get back to their home planet. Or something like that.
They also ran a movie that was a comic retelling of the “Hands of Orlac” tale, only the transplant doctor was a good guy, and the dead pickpocket whose arm was transplanted turns out not to be dead at all and wants his arm back, thank you very much. That one was much easier to follow if you already know the “Hands of Orlac” story.
I love the South American film industry. It’s so fun. Slowly those films are at least getting subtitles.
I love looking at the Milfs on my wife’s novelas.
This looks like it could be fun. I won’t watch tonight though, I’ll watch tomorrow. Gotta drop off to get some stuff done. Thanks RJ!
“Gotta drop off to get some stuff done.”
This over-acheiving attitude is white privilege at it’s finest.
It’s a great one. It was hard to make a choice from all the good Lucha Libre films released recently.
The end of the Movie Star
1.3 million views in two days.
The drinker abides.
I agree with everything I managed to listen to, but damn that “down-tune” -or whatever the hell you call it- at the end of every sentence starts sounding like fingers on chalkboard after 20-30 straight sentences.
I was getting my plant starting table set up this afternoon, and a fluorescent tube fell on to the table. Had to clean that up and vacuum the floor a couple times to pick up the tiny shards of glass. I had another tube so I put that in and used wide clear tape to hold the tubes in, in case of another incident.
I started peppers a few days ago and they’re popping up. A few more days for the tomates, cabbages, etc. We still have a lot of snow on the ground but it looks like its going to be warmer now.
Had the contractors out yesterday to give an estimate of my house/garage repair. I called 6 outfits, 3 called back, 2 of which weren’t interested. Hope the guys from yesterday come back with an estimate I can live with, insurance has already settled but will make adjustments if more damage is found.
“fluorescent”
Why aren’t you using LED, bro?
You have to make sure the LEDs you use for growing have the proper wavelengths; “regular” led strips don’t. Plant growing ones are more expensive and require a new fixture.
It’s a matter of choice/preference.
Well, I sort of know that, but LEDs are superior to fluorescent in my opinion, in every way. That’s why there is not any commercial grow operations using anything except LED today.
Fourscore is just using them to get seeds started inside before transplanting them outside once Minesoda becomes conducive produce growing.
LED is still better by far.
Calm your tits and think about what an 80+ year old guy should do to get seeds started for his modest garden. Use existing technology paid for years ago, or go buy a bunch of new tech for a marginal increase in pre-transplant growth? Also, keep in mind he doesn’t live in a cave. There will also be sunlight coming in supplementing the lights.
My tits are calm, and the 80 year old guy should buy lights, for cheap that will not make a fucking mess if he drops them, and are more energy efficient as well as better. Now get off my lawn.
I use no lights. Just set the trays in the window.
Tulip’s windows
I wish.
“I use no lights. Just set the trays in the window.”
So, you’re using lights, the giant hydrogen converting nuclear plant in the sky.
Too hot and inefficient, a lot of wastage. She should switch to LEDs.
“Too hot and inefficient, a lot of wastage. She should switch to LEDs.”
Total disagree, hot but very efficient. And free. Fusion > LEDs, finally someone is making sense.
It’s only efficient if you can cheat and steal work from gravity.
I really like the grow kits by Vivosun. They come with a nice pop-up canvas “tent” and the LEDs and other accessories. Great for folks who are starting out and don’t have preexisting greenhouse or starter space and equipment.
I suspect 4×20 has a nice setup from years back, so he has to consider whether it’s worth changing to something else now.
I hate changing to new stuff right now because it’s all made in China. Grrrr…
I need to get my tent and grow lights setup soon. I can’t let Fourscore show me up!
I only have two pepper plants (a Thai bird and a cayenne) that survived the dark, dark Minnesoda winter.
Please tell me you had LED grow lights on them!
The cayenne yes, the Thai was just shop floor fluorescents (at work)
“Please tell me you had LED grow lights on them!”
This guy has an extreme amount of butthurt caused by mention of LED.
Yes, you do. Take your snark and move on.
“Take your snark and move on.”
What snark would that be?
Mmmmm….Thai bird chilis. Soooooo good.
Same with flourescents. You have to get the proper color temp.
I don’t even know of anyone today doing DIY hydroponics or any off the shelf hydro setups like Aeroponics or Gardyn, or iHarvest who use anything except for LED. For the same reason we buy Tesla’s today instead of Model T’s. Old tech is old for a reason, it’s obsolete.
Fluorescents are hot and the color temp goes off quickly. I concur on the LEDs. Flouros are also energy hogs.
I’m not saying don’t use your old flourescent bulb for seed starting. I’m just saying if you have to buy a replacement for your broken bulb, buy LED. It’s been several years since they were expensive. I have 2 $20 LED panels I used for seed starting that I will give to anyone who wants them since I’m now starting all my seeds in hydroponic systems with admittedly expensive lights, which you do not need to just germinate a seed.
50’s are coming! Or, a 50 is coming, tomorrow.
Hope your adventures in roofing turn out for the best. Why so much trouble finding willing recipients for the insurance money?
I think they haven’t come back from their Southern vacations. Maybe some have bigger jobs. Its a mixed job, replace some chimney blocks and the damaged steel panels on the garage, replace the snow barriers on the house.
Reason # 2,503 why I hate commercial flying:
Good one, Delta Airlines. Can’t check in until 24 hours prior to departure time. I check in online at 23 hours and 50 minutes before departure time – the only seats left are “comfort seats” which come with an extra $25 charge. It’s no longer nickel and diming, it’s +$25 or +$42.
How can you not hate it? Who really likes sitting in a tin can, scrunched up against people you don’t want to even get close to, getting tossed around like marbles and fully feeling like you will die as soon as this tin can falls apart, which feels like it will be any minute now.
Reason #1 is surrendering control of the vehicle to someone I don’t know.
I should maybe try for my pilots license again. I’ve been through ground school 3 times. I can’t seem to get past that.
If I ever become a billionaire, first thing I buy is a private jet.
What is that, seats that don’t crush your hips?
They’ll either release other seats or assign you to a Comfort+ seat at no charge. You don’t have to pay the fee.

I love how they keep bringing back the AOC Jan. 6 stuff and freshening it up with current events. They may be a galactic treasure.
Oh, and I was WAY off with my Will Smith story count guess. IIRC they had 4 the day after, and must be up to 7 or 8 total by now.

Speaking of galactic treasures…
Is it bad I instantly recognized “Nude Eva” by her bad fake tits? Those horrible bolt-ons… should have stuck with what I’m guessing were lovely A-cups.
Thing I am still strugging with with indoor gowing is what fans to buy? I know I need them and am disappointed with expensive grow systems that completely ignore this issue. I want to buy some fans, but I don’t know what to get. They need to be sufficient without too much power.
Whichever ones you get, make sure the on/off indicator lights are LED.
?
Oh right, that’s a great tip, thanks a bunch.
Only losers use fans! You need to buy Air-Emitting Diodes!
Legit LOL
Do you have a link to one of those?
Here you go.
I guess I’m not on your level of engineering, I can’t even read that, let alone order it online.
Why aren’t you using variable speed, bro?
I am a Bro. The Bro. There is only one Bro around these parts. And it aint Hyperion.
True. Hyperion is more of a “bra”.
Mansiere!
Oh shit, that’s right. Kramer wanted to call it the “Bro”. hahaha
Most Firsters have careers that end in their early 30’s. I’m still going strong. To put this in terms that seconders could understand, I am the Tom Brady of Firsting. I will achieve new heights, push my body to its absolute limit. I am a genetic freak of nature. When other Firsters would have long since broken down and seen a decline in performance, I will thrive.
Tom Brady’s longevity comes from years of curling up in the fetal position to avoid major hits. Unlike him, I First the right way. My body takes absurd levels of abuse in the name of Firsting.
This one is too easy bro.

OMG.
I found a haiku generator online. It asks for a few guidelines, Mad-Lib style, then goes for it.
I put in “night”, “desert”, “cheesecake”, and “weeps”. This is the Resulting Haiku:
“Desert: a Haiku by Splosives”
https://www.poem-generator.org.uk/?i=md8ek9f
It gets better: it generates fake critical reviews.

“Someone left my cake out in the semiarid region” doesn’t quite scan.

That was pretty good.
I have fluorescent on my seedlings and then two sets of LEDS for the bigger ones. Several plants are now too big for the cabinet, so they’re getting sunlight.
I gotta get on the stick and set up my Vivosun tent. Peppers are going to be my focus this summer, just to “feel out” the desert a bit. I might try some other spices, like basil and oregano. My suspicion is that basil is too broad-leafed and will scorch, whereas oregano and rosemary might thrive in the dribbler sprinkler system I have.

Wait, what?
I thought Ikea naturally biodegrades. Buy back? What, do they chop it up and re-feed it to termites to get more furniture out of the Termite Barf Cycle?
So you can buy furniture that already fell apart instead of furniture that will fall apart in the near future?
Well, I did it.
I bought some Nevada goldbacks, several each of the 5 denominations. They are quite fetching to look at as well as containing intrinsic value for the gold content. I’m sure i will have to be at home to sign for them when they arrive.
Next question is: Bank safe deposit box, or alternative? I don’t really trust corporations much anymore, but my house could burn down, etc.
https://nevadagoldback.com/
Info on what they are and how they’re made.
Am I correct in understanding that 1 goldback costs ~$3.50?
When all your bank accounts get frozen for being an ungood thinker, will they let you access your safe deposit box?
Sadly, that’s exactly what I’m getting at with the “alternative” option seeking.
I’m sure that banks will freeze and seize according to what Out Betters demand.
This will take some thinking… I also have some coins so kind of the same thinking applies.
I need to get an ancient Ford truck too, if I want to survive the prelude to the apocalypse.
Your could buy your own fireproof safe, that’s the best I could figure myself. Store it somewhere that wouldn’t be immediately obvious to thrives.
That’s where I’m leaning.
Some sort of plaster of paris urn?
Holding a red herring key to nothing.
Bury it in the desert. No one will ever find it out there and you’ll spawn dozens of screenplays.
You have to mark the location somehow. I suggest palm trees that look like a big “W.”
If you do that shenanigans are sure to follow.
I watch that film fairly often; I love it so. You pick up little things every viewing, like Sid Caesar making a point to always be the last person to exit a scene or Peter Falk’s brilliant telephone rant about the local police – “What? That fat NAZI is in a bad humor, so I have to suffer?”
I have no idea what movie that is.
Here ya go – https://youtu.be/j-7pVks8avo
It’s A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
It’s in my online movie library but I don’t think I’ve seen it in a decade at lest. Think I’ll rewatch it this weekend…
I haven’t seen it since I was about seven.
Way back in the day they’d play it on WTBS at least once a month. Come to think of it, I’m not sure I’ve really watched it since then. I remember it being really good but my old brain might think differently.
You should watch it just for the vehicles. Reminds me of being a tiny boy.
I should leave a hilariously cryptic will so there has to be a desert treasure hunt.
Like that Vegas casino boss.

“Is Russia The Real Target Of Western Sanctions?”
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russia-real-target-western-sanctions
Or is the real target us? People are going to be demanding government engineered solutions to these government manufactured problems shortly. If y’all think prices are high now just wait until the Russians shut off Europe’s gas (which is totally unnecessary, just give them their rubles for god’s sake).
If the Continental system worked for Napoleon, it can work for us too.
Never let a crisis go to waste. Saw something on TV about Biden saying we need to develop energy independence. We’re fucked in other words.

I’ve been incredibly tired lately. I don’t remember falling asleep at all. I guess I got up early yesterday. That explains it. Why everyone else is still asleep, I dunno.
I’m awake. I run on opposite time. That will be a hard habit to break when the job goes tits-up on May 31st.
Long Covid or Covid vax side effects.
#metoo since the booster in November
I’m apparently immune to the deadly plague. Haven’t had a real cold or flu for years. Type O negative for the win, Baby!
Also O- here. The “bad cold” I had around Xmas was the first in years.
So you are saying that the big “O” is good for you?
Better than the big “D”.
So it’s official. Ne’re-do-well has Trench Foot. What’s next? Scurvy? Ricketts? Dropsy? He needs to go to the clinic today so they can shave the skin off his feet. I hope that it hurts like hell. Poor Judi. She’s trying to get him into some sort of residential care facility but I’m fully sure that he’ll be dead in a year or two. Cunte.
Uh, who?
Jeepers! I’m so sorry for your travails. How does one get trench foot in this modern age?
Im guessing it involves a trench and his foot ?
Meth, waterproof boots and poor personal hygiene. His Dad should have slapped some discipline into him when he was a boy. By the time I showed up it was too late. He had been groomed by a pedophile that used him as a trinket for the next 25 years. We tried but the courts wouldn’t intervene. Now that he has out-grown his usefulness, he sleeps in shelters. He’s a smart man. My go-to with computer and phone problems but he fell off the edge about two years ago. Nothing I can do to fix it. It’s really, really sad.
HOLY MAKEREL! That is utterly heartbreaking. I’m so sorry you and Judi have to deal with this. The importance of regularly changing one’s socks was beaten into me by Army.
Ouch, that is horrible. I need to read an entire thread before snarking.
That is awful.
Rehab and therapy but y’all can’t do those for him of course.
We know this but he is her first-born. Ties bind, as it were.
I thought you were exaggerating about Trench foot.
How awful to see what was potentially a happy human being, now ground down into abject misery.
Hugs for you and Judi.
Thanks. It’s been terrible for Judi, I just have to weather the knock-on effects. This is going to get really ugly.

Good morning, l0, Lack, Fes, Stinky, HE, & Sean!
On the one hand, Friday! And the boss is working from home!
On the other hand, it’s the first of the month, so I have to dive into month-end reports, AND Our Esteemed Regulators have made a bunch of changes to the quarterly report we have to submit, so we’re having to redo the spreadsheets we use to collect all the data…just because someone decided we should slice & dice all the figures in a new & different way. ?
I have wall-to-wall meetings from 8am forward.
Good morning, Gender Traitor!!
suh’ fam
yo whats goody
Read above. Not fucking much.
| What’s next? Scurvy? Ricketts? Dropsy?
You forgot consumption and/or the ague.
Rain and hopefully none of that stuff you just mentioned.
While brushing-up on my knowledge of The Consumption, today I learned you can get it in your pee-pee: Urogenital tuberculosis
That sounds quite unpleasant. I remember growing up and there were all these terrible diseases floating around and today we only have one I suppose and we have to lock everyone in their house because of it, because science you know.
Mornin’, reprobates. You too, UCS.
Spent all day attempting to reconcile source to target for an audit. Numbers are asshoe, can’t get them to match. Today will be fun.
OMG I got roped into something like that for the Finance team once (why??) and it was a nightmare.
Got up to no grow lights on. Power went out yesterday during a storm for about 10 seconds and now my timers don’t know what time it is because cannot connect to the intertoobz and I forgot my wifi password and don’t have it stored in my password DB. I guess I have to turn on my laptop to find the password, only computer in the house that uses WiFi. I never thought about if the power goes off damn thing would forget what time it is and then I have to reprogram it.
And then all my meetings got cancelled for today and the day just suddenly became much better. No meeting Friday, woohooo!!! Weather is nasty today, 2nd Friday in a row I told wife I am going to fire up the grill for the first time and weather cancelled that idea once again…
That fluorescent tube with the on/off ain’t lookin so bad now, is it?
Sometimes simple is better.
The lights aren’t the prob, it’s that the damn timers are digital and need to be connected to the net to remember what time it is in case the power goes off. Maybe I shouldn’t have made the password 27 characters long but I had someone who was using my wifi for free once and hogging bandwidth. I think they were downloading pr0n all day or bootleg movies, or something because my internet would get real slow. So I made an unhackale password that I can’t ever remember…
Multi-word phrases are good, especially from obscure media that you are familiar with.
Mine has that, it’s all the random numbers and special characters inserted into it that I can’t remember.
I’d never use those. just things like “theyre better than 20 20 and theyre blue” or “zankoku na tenshi no you ni
shounen yo shinwa ni nare”
That last one is less obscure but long enoough that they’d have to be bored to try it.
Oddly enough, there was a late 1980s (early 1990s?) novel series that had the characters use passphrases like that. Although in those it was deliberately done to allow one specific person to be able to figure it out.
I have thirteen meetings today.
WTF? That’s like cruel and unusual punishment.
In 8 hours? Has to be an April Fool’s joke.
Three of them are a quarter-hour each.
Fridays are supposed to be open so now it is the dumping ground because nobody has any open time the other days. ?
Friday is always the day I have the most meetings, including the one multiple hour one, which has gone up to 4 hours and is typically over 2. When it goes more than 2 it is typically just random discussions about whatever and I’m just waiting for people to stop talking so I can go enjoy the rest of the weekend away from people I work with. There is only so long I can remain focued in a meeting and past 2 hours, forget about it, I’m staring at my cell or out the window…
This might be the perfect destination for a glib meetup.

As much as I moan and groan on here at least I have never had Trench-Foot. That’s something, I guess.
I have never found “Someone else has it worse” to be a suitable palliative for my woes.
I don’t know, if Fauci and Brandon would get that Trench-Foot, in their ass, that would feel quite palliative to me.
