HELPPP
LAST NIGHT AT WORK (During my panic attack) THIS DUDE CAME IN AND... GOOD LORD
I HAD TO DOUBLE TAKE CAUSE THAT MAN LOOKED LIKE A YOUNG BILLY WIRTH. LIKE- NO KIDDING. HE WAS WEARING A LEATHER JACKET AND A TOOTH EARRING WITH BEADED NECKLACES WHILE PULLING HIS HAIR UP INTO A PONY TAIL.
AND HE WAS JUST ODERING WITH THIS STUNNING GRIN LIKE: Hi there, could I get a small popcorn, a strawberry milkshake, and a pack of sourpatch kids?
Mind you, he's looking at this sleep deprived creature, in the middle of a panic attack, pacing and picking at her neck and face while sweeping. Just staring at him for a good five seconds before: Sure! Lemme grab someone for you real quick!
And then a SKEDADDLED to the back to get my coworker to hwlp him out cause I was about to go WEAK

Gabrielle Anwar and Billy Wirth in Body Snatchers (Abel Ferrara, 1993)
Cast: Gabrielle Anwar, Terry Kinney, Meg Tilly, Billy Wirth, Reilly Murphy, Christine Elise, R. Lee Irmey, Kathleen Doyle, Forest Whitaker, G. Elvis Phillips. Screenplay: Raymond Cistheri, Larry Cohen, Stuart Gordon, Dennis Paoli, Nicholas St. John, based on a novel by Jack Finney. Cinematography: Bojan Bazelli. Production design: Peter Jamison. Film editing: Anthony Redman. Music: Joe Delia. 
Abel Ferrara's version of Jack Finney's novel The Body Snatchers is nothing if not economical. The economy extends to the title: Don Siegel's 1956 version and Philip Kaufman's 1978 one were called Invasion of the Body Snatchers; Ferrara even drops the definite article. The story, too, has been pared down. Ferrara's version sets the story on a military base in Alabama instead of the urban California of the previous films. It also shifts the focus to a teenage girl, Marti Malone (Gabrielle Anwar), who comes with her family to the base when her father (Terry Kinney) is sent there by the EPA to investigate chemical pollution. The dynamic of a rebellious adolescent in a military culture is perfect for the conflict between individualism and conformity, the theme that unites all of the versions of Finney's story. In addition to her father, Marti's dysfunctional family consists of her stepmother, Carol (Meg Tilly), whom she dislikes, and her young half-brother, Andy (Reilly Muphy), who annoys her. Andy is the first to sense that something is seriously wrong in their new home when, during an art class at day care, all the other kids produce identical finger paintings. As they hold up their paintings, the teacher murmurs approvingly at each one until she comes to a halt at Andy's, which is unique. She clearly disapproves. One by one, the fact that people are being somehow replaced by identical but emotionless beings becomes clear. Ferrara is not particularly interested in the mechanics of invasion and transformation that took up more narrative space in the previous films. We get some nicely disgusting body horror scenes, but the response of Marti to the alien takeover is what drives the plot as she teams up with a handsome young helicopter pilot named Tim (Billy Wirth) to fight off the invaders. Tim's stoic military manner keeps us unsure whether he's not already one of the pod people, an ambiguity that persists until the end of the movie. Body Snatchers is a good rethinking of material whose previous versions are now considered classics. The source material was mined again for a fourth version, The invasion (Oliver Hirschbiegel, 2007), which starred Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig but bombed with the critics.

The False Emerson
Part 1
Tumblr media
Ella just wanted to celebrate Halloween; how did it go so wrong so quickly?
Ella blinked rapidly as she stepped into the sun. The house of horrors had been extremely dark compared to the Californian sun, even in late autumn. Crowds of people in costumes covered the boardwalk and there were rumours of a Halloween party on Strawberry Beach after dark. She planned to have a walk down once the trick-or-treaters started to go home. Heading towards the end of the Wharf to get some food, Ella was shocked to see that the Bay Company was no more. Instead it had been replaced by a shop called Max’s Video Store. Intrigued, she decided to check it out. The name sounded familiar but she could not place it until she saw the cashier. It was 44-year-old Edward Herrmann, the recently released videos included Crocodile Dundee and From Beyond. She remembered her uncle telling her about watching both films when he was fourteen, renting them almost as soon as they came out. That’s when Ella realised, it was October 1986 and she was in the Lost Boys’ universe. She had the power to reverse the death of the vampire gang, they didn’t have to die for Max’s actions after all.
“Can I help you, young lady?” Max asked, his sweet tone made her feel nauseous knowing how he neglected the boys. Thorn barely glanced at her which was a relief. She nodded with a smile, “How much will it be to rent?” “Five dollars for the week” He answered, “Having a quiet night in?” “I’m not sure yet. My niece is out of town so no free candy for me”
Settling into her hotel room, Ella pulled the three tapes out of the bag. She ended up renting her three favourite 80s films: Children of the Corn, Labyrinth, and The Neverending Story. A choice between the three different emotions the movies created was freeing. It made a change from her usual Halloween Horror Marathons. The tradition had been her uncle’s but she carried it with her when she moved away. California felt so far from Tennessee, especially when she began to miss her family. When she opened her window to air out the room, she heard the buzz of the crowds. Sure the celebrations wouldn’t be like what she experienced at home or when she visited her uncle in Louisiana but they would be fun. It was Halloween after all. Why not go out?
Within the hour, Ella was ready. The night life awaited her but her first stop was the carousel to see if the rumours were true. She had the word of the receptionist that this was the best spot in Santa Carla to meet people. Especially when it was night during the Halloween season. Between the hours of ten and four, the boardwalk was adult only. That was only during the spookiest time of year but it was still effective. You had to be at least twenty-one to access the area but it was not heavily regulated which was good for Ella. She didn’t have her id. She hadn’t even picked up her phone when she left the house that morning. It was only meant to be a short trip out. Thankfully, she had taken some cash with her. That made things a lot easier.
“Hey, babe,” A voice greeted from behind her. Ella recognised him from the film, he was one of the guys that hung around Greg. In other words, he was trouble. “Want to hang with me?” Ella scoffed, rolling her eyes at his suggestion. “No, thank you” She declined, wishing he would go away so she could enjoy the ride in peace. Apparently, that wasn’t an option. He grabbed her thigh so hard that she was sure it would bruise, “Come on, don’t be a prude” Just as she went to retaliate, he was pulled away. “She said no, dude!” Ella would recognise that New York accent anywhere; it was Billy Wirth. That meant it was Dwayne who had come to her rescue. Hopefully it meant the surfer was dinner, not her. “Back off, man!” The Californian demanded, shoving the vampire. Dwayne pushed him back. He was facing away from her but she could tell he was angry as he spoke, “Don’t push your luck, Tommy. The boardwalk is our’s” The threat was clear but the surfer was idiotic. “Oh, yeah?” He challenged, not backing down, “According to who?” As the ride halted to a stop, Ella stepped down from the fake horse. She could still hear the pair arguing but paid them no attention. She fully intended to leave and return to her hotel but clearly the coven had other ideas.
She had almost made it to the car park when Dwayne reappeared. He stood in front of her, about to speak when she cut him off. “I hope he learnt his lesson, Dwayne. Anyone with a brain cell knows this is your territory. Even I know and I’m not from round here” She rambled, Ella was nervous. He was attractive but still dangerous, he was a vampire. He could easily hurt her, even if he didn’t want to kill her. She was also hyper aware that she had used his name, something she shouldn’t know yet. It was her first day in Santa Carla, a vastly different world from the Santa Cruz she knew. He didn’t speak, instead he loosely grabbed her upper arm and dragged her to the bikes - to the rest of his coven. He presented her to David, “She knew my name” The statement shocked the group and Ella couldn’t quite place the tone he had used. He was completely unreadable. “Gotta know your names if I’m gonna stop you from dying come the summer” She was dismissive of her knowledge, only creating more questions. None of them spoke, instead they seemed to take in her appearance. Her hair was shoulder-length, a light brown that had tints of blonde from the coastal sun. The jumper she had been left in her grandfather’s will almost covered her black skirt and her converse were clean but scuffed. Her style was so different from their own. The vampires had no idea of how to react. The silence became awkward so she continued speaking, “I only have until July to create a plan. Everything starts on the 31st, once Lucy arrives everything changes. I’d rather not see you all die again. You don’t deserve that… It wasn’t your fault” Her voice grew quiet with her last statement, tears threatening to pour down her face. They had lived for decades yet one family would end it all. It was just unfair. They only did what they needed to in order to survive. They couldn’t help their nature.
Not once did they speak to her. Yet somehow, she ended up at the cave, travelling on the back of Dwayne’s bike. They all sat in the same positions they had when they brought Michael to the cave. Clearly, they were creatures of habit. Ella hovered around the fountain, noticing the initials carved into its basin. She wondered when they had done it, her fingers tracing each letter nervously. “How do you know?” David’s question cut through the tense atmosphere, echoing slightly. She didn’t look up from the stone, “In my world, you’re a movie. Simply characters” “Your world?” The leader scoffed, “Stop lying” “Not lying” She retorted, still not looking away from the carving. Her finger resting on M. The metal creaked as David shifted slightly, “I don’t believe you” Ella’s head snapped toward him, “I doubt me being from a different universe is hard to believe considering you’re vampires” Her tone was sharp, she was trying not to get angry but David had a natural talent at being infuriating. He didn’t do well at hiding his shock.
Ella had wandered off into the cave, leaving the boys to discuss what she had told them. It was surely a surprise but it doesn't seem that impossible. The time alone gave her a chance to regulate her emotions. She had found an empty cavern and just sat down. This wasn’t how she imagined spending her night yet here she was. The silence was comforting as she began formulating a plan. Clearly the group hadn’t met Star yet and she hadn’t seen Laddie. That wasn’t to say that he wasn’t already here. It was unclear when the young halfling was meant to sleep but she was certain that he didn’t stay with Star. That had been made obvious when Michael had slept with Star. He hadn’t been with the boys and wasn’t in the main cave nor Star’s area. That implied that he had his own space in the cave. She imagined all the boys did, even if they roosted together. That must just be a safety measure even if it didn’t work. Ella wondered if they let her stay if she could use this hollow. It was secluded enough. They’d find her when they were ready, her heartbeat would be an indicator of her location. Hopefully they believed her and were willing to let her help. She would hate to hopelessly stand by as they were murdered all over again. Each individual death was ingrained into her memory. Their pain had stuck with her throughout the years.
It was Dwayne that found her in the end. She heard his necklaces before she saw him. They were a give away to his approach though she was sure he could be quiet if he wanted to. A glow was produced by the flame he was carrying, the torch similar to the one used to light the barrels. She stared at him, the drying tears on her face the only indicator of her crying. He sat down beside her, torch discarded. “Why do you want to help us?” “You didn’t deserve to die” Ella’s voice was shaky from her emotions, “You only did what you had to do to survive” “How do we die?” He asks quietly, she was glad he talked more than in the film. Grimacing, she told him, “Marko is staked, Paul gets holy water, you get electrocuted, and David gets stabbed. None of you die quickly. It’s horrific” The tears began again, she tried to keep herself from crying but she couldn’t help it. They were all brutally slaughtered for no reason. The only person who had to die was Max, the boys were all victims. Dwayne grabbed her hand, “What happens to Laddie?” He demanded, they must have taken him in already. Clearly he cared for the boy. It made her wonder why he was always with Star during the film. She imagined it was another order from Max. “He sees Paul die. The only reason Paul was by the holy water is because he was protecting Laddie. He doesn’t get hurt but I can only imagine what that feels like” She couldn’t lie to him, not about this. The poor kid had to live with that image forever. Ella knew she had to prevent it. If not for the boys’ sakes, then for Laddie. He was only eleven.

On December 22, 2015 Brooke McCarter died. He maybe lost, but he is not forgotten. ❤️ He had discovered he had a genetic disorder 6 months before that ended up claiming his life. He left behind a young daughter, siblings and his mom. I never met him, but he sounded like a wonderful person! He was a very talented actor, model, musician and singer! He was beloved by many fans! Billy Wirth, who played Dwayne in the Lost Boys, had said they met shortly before filming the Lost Boys together through their shared modeling agent and were best friends from then until the end of Brooke's life ❤️ RIP Brooke McCarter 💖 I wish the best for your family, especially your daughter! 💖 #brookemccarter #ripbrookemccarter #thelostboyscosplay #lostboyscosplay #thelostboys #thelostboysmovie #thelostboys1987 #paulthelostboys #thelostboyspaul #80svampire #80svampires #bloodsuckingbradybunch #santacarlavampires #santacarla #lostboys #lostintheshadows #theyreonlynoodlesmichael #murdercapitaloftheworld #itsfuntobeavampire #allthedamnvampires #bloodbottle #sayhellotothenightlostintheshadows #sayhellotothenight #cosplaycomparison #cosplayvscharacter #80scosplay #80scostumes #punkvampire #vampirecosplay #vampirecosplayer (at Santa Carla, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJH_TPDjjmS/?igshid=yv1h5aizvngc

Warner Archive will release a four-film Blu-ray set featuring Wolfen, The Hunger, Innocent Blood, and Body Snatchers on July 21. All four titles are already available individually.
Wolfen is a 1981 werewolf film directed by Michael Wadleigh and written by David Eyre and Michael Wadleigh, based on Whitley Strieber's 1978 novel The Wolfen. Albert Finney, Diane Venora, Edward James Olmos, Gregory Hines, and Tom Noonan star.
The Hunger is a 1983 vampire film directed by Tony Scott (Top Gun) and written by Ivan Davis and Michael Thomas (Ladyhawk), based on Whitley Strieber’s 1981 novel of the same name. Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, Susan Sarandon, Cliff De Young, Beth Ehlers, and Dan Hedaya star.
Innocent Blood is a 1992 vampire comedy directed by John Landis (An American Werewolf in London) and written by Michael Wolk. Anne Parillaud, Robert Loggia, Anthony LaPaglia, Don Rickles, Chazz Palminteri, and Angela Bassett star.
Body Snatchers is a 1993 adaptation of Jack Finney’s 1955 novel, The Body Snatchers. Abel Ferrara (Bad Lieutenant) directs from a script by Stuart Gordon & Dennis Paoli (Re-Animator) and Nicholas St. John (King of New York). Gabrielle Anwar, Terry Kinney, Billy Wirth, Christine Elise, R. Lee Ermey, Forest Whitaker, and Meg Tilly star.
Wolfen adds an ecological twist to Whitley Streibers urban-blight commentary on a pack of lycanthropes defending its territory. The Hunger brings an art-house aesthetic to Streibers revisionist vampire saga. This sexy tale will leave you hungry for more. Innocent Blood defies standard sensibilities by adding a vigilante vampire to the cops-and-mobsters genre and ups the blood count. Body Snatchers combines teenage alienation, body horror and government paranoia with alien invaders.
