Nah, I'm talking about the original from 1964 that the Burton one is a remake of.

Some dark horse candidates:
How soon we forget such brave efforts to chronicle the future like Billy Idol's CYBERPUNK album (which as painfully awkward as it is, really did seem like Idol actually was trying to channel Wiliam Gibson in a really hamfisted way.).
I always thought the reason why the Strange Tales had more superhero action was a generational shift in indie creators: While Hernandez/Bagge/Clowes crowd either never paid attention as kids to square old Silver Age DC or at most had an ironic appreciatiation for what they read as children from that era before…
The fact you dig the Fuzzbuster mix mght be due to the fact it was a remix by a future Venture Bros composer J.G. Thirlwell, who always seemed to have a knack for taking metal tracks and making them extremely groovy.
I like that CBGBs Dog. He's a dog with attitude. He's edgy,
he's "in your face." You've heard the expression "let's get busy"? Well,
this is a dog who gets "biz-zay!" Consistently and thoroughly.
It says something about the strengths of the overall series that Our Gang was the first episode I saw and I was still blown away by the show. Looking back, I can see the rough spots the show was still going through (the baby in the pool sequence is symptomatic of the first season's attempts to be EDGY in all caps.),…
The story is not terribly surprising, being far more a prequel to the 1939 movie than to the Baum sreies (it would have been nice if they imported a little bit more original Baum, but they might be a little gunshy over doing so after Return To Oz.) However Raimi's visual style plays quite well in 3D and Franco is…
True. Season 4 is great because it really shows how Vic if he kept his nose relativley clean and had a commanding officer he actually respected he might have been able to thrive within the Police Departmentt,. However too much crap had already taken place winding up Shane and Vic's own sins that the consequences…
It's a valid argument but my Personal Theory is this: Vic let his alpha dog nature get the best of him by shooting Terry.
I love Lansdale & Gerber as writers, and while this is neither's best work, I can't help but love it as a deliberate self-parody of the BTAS formula, partucarly the tendency to always end a lot of episodes with ambiguous horror movie style endings of "The evil's been vanquished… OR HAS IT?!".
