Liberace house

I am just going to let these pictures do the talking....







A throne for the throne-user!





Lovers of camp, unite and rejoice!

Neuschwanstein castle: inside!


What I wouldn't do to be back in Europe! 
Though I missed Neuschwanstein when I was in Germany, I have always been curious as to the castles interior, as well as its magnificent exterior! What a sumptuous kitschy delight!

 It reminds me of Liberace sans bedazzler ;)



Saint George slaying the dragon detail



Wikipedia IS a scholarly resource! Poncy university rules be damned!








 What rich details, you can live and breather history here, I visit many places on Google maps, alá street view for when I haven't had the chance to see them yet! 


Imagine waking up in corridors like these, a unicorn rounding the corner wouldn't be out of place

Bill you Murray me?


Bill Murray nailed it! The cheesy actor's head shot reminded me so much of Tobias Funke's set from Arrested Development:


Just when the internet couldn't love Bill Murray enough, he goes and adds that gem to the collection!

Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre

Hello internet dwellers, we can rejoice for Shelley Duvall's faerie tale theatre in all its dated kitschy goodness is all up on Youtube! You can watch the first episode, The Frog Prince right here



Princess Bitchface's hilarious parents


Robin Williams as a frog. Only he could turn a fairy tale into an adult comedy


Witty double entendre's like "horny toad", don't worry, frog gives as good sass as he gets


He also likes to correct grammar, the world needs more grammar Nazi amphibians


I love medieval anything, especially fairy tale interpretations of the 80's, killer hair dont's


I can't find screen caps for it (nor is my comp letting me do them at the moment??!) of a highly detailed and excellent scorpion vs. frog sword fight scene. Old school special effects are SO good! I wonder what will happen as technology advances even more, will our offspring think of all this as frightfully dull? They better not


Floating gold ball that also doubles as a communication device! and one of the best prosthetic noses ever. Also worth noting in this episode: the Father Time-esque character, frog prince does Shakespeare, the use of the term old crone (let's bring it back instead of 'hag' which has judgemental connotations) and Eric Idle narrates! (and directs) just like he did in another dopey but awesome over the top tale, Ella Enchanted.

Sincerely hope these don't fade from the collective subconscious!
Happy Watching
