@Michael J.--...Thanks for the comments, everyone! <br /><br />@Michael J.--I predict that the Lapp Hats will be IN in a big way the next fashion cycle. We'll all be ahead of the game, there. And when is the Party Skeleton Suit ever OUT of style, I ask you? ;)<br /><br />@Duke of DVD--This movie proves yet again what we've always known: there are more things in heaven, earth, and the Internet than are dreamed in our philosophy.<br /><br />@Tenebrous Kate--Even if I had done the hat/fishbowl thing, then taken some of the Duke's special shrooms and spun myself around until I couldn't stand up, I don't think I'd have come up with Sensuela. Definitely seek it out at your earliest opportunity.<br /><br />@Paul--fascinating stuff! I'd really like to see more of Tulio's work now...sounds like he was an artist with some interesting (if not always pretty) things to say! Thanks for the link!<br /><br />@Jenn--I wasn't hungover, and yet I still felt that way once Sensuela had had its wicked way with me. :) <br /><br />@Al Bruno III--that might be the greatest complement the Duke and I have ever received! In fact, it's totally our new tagline: "MMMMMovies: the #1 Movie Site to Read Whilst Pantsless!" ;)The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-55535657928471266042009-09-02T08:17:07.405-05:002009-09-02T08:17:07.405-05:00In addition to being the public's favorite blo...In addition to being the public's favorite blog to read whilst not wearing trousers, our extensive research also indicates that we are the blog to read while:<br /><br />1) Sitting in a cheese shop eating the finest Gloucester.<br /><br />2) Mounting a serving girl/man as other serving girls/men watch in horror.<br /><br />3) Burning an effigy of the Vicar.The Duke of DVDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931606833969681610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-80241254383301948022009-09-02T05:22:53.210-05:002009-09-02T05:22:53.210-05:00Another amusing and informative post about a movie...Another amusing and informative post about a movie I had never heard of.<br /><br />And MAD MAD MAD MAD MOVIES is still my favorite blog to read when I'm not wearing pants.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09492062472206579391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-78819757822285361832009-09-01T19:03:21.261-05:002009-09-01T19:03:21.261-05:00Castrated reindeer?

It lives up to the description, that's for sure.

I'm actually having a hard time believing that this movie exists, that it's not just some clever Photoshop plot on the part of the Vicar to fill my heart to bursting from hope. Admit it--you just put a bunch of phrases into a hat, pulled out five ("Nazi," "reindeer," "hookers," "Crayola," and "drug dealer," to be precise) and crafted this plot around them. The real world cannot possibly be this beautiful.Tenebrous Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032561062849200919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-38272640163164266942009-08-31T23:57:49.337-05:002009-08-31T23:57:49.337-05:00When the Vicar first told me about this movie, whi...When the Vicar first told me about this movie, while we sat on silken pillows at my mountain retreat in upper Romania, I was skeptical. Sure, I had a small room in a corner of my blackened heart that held out small hope that somehow, somewhere there would exist a movie containing the ritual castration of reindeer, and that said movie would also be sexploitation movie from Finland, but I had all but given up my dream of finding one.<br /><br />Then along comes Sensuela. Micro budget, use of taxidermy'd animals, and garish makeup; Sensuela has it all. This, my friends, is as MAD a movie as I have ever hoped to view, and one (as the Vicar says) everyone who reads this blog should endeavour to watch.<br /><br />Bravo, Vicar. You have put to the page the eloquence and charm that is Lapp softcore, and once again bring us to the brink MAD-ness, before roughly shoving us off into the abyss we so yearn for, yet fear.The Duke of DVDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931606833969681610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-68918691557448119702009-08-31T23:06:16.462-05:002009-08-31T23:06:16.462-05:00Well done, Vicar, for digging deep into the well o...Well done, Vicar, for digging deep into the well of MmmmMadness for this one. Promise me this -- when you and the Duke open the web-store, pleeese stock up on those crazy Lapp hats. (size 7, in Spacious Blue). And on official Hans-Party Skeleton Suits.
