I saw My Bloody Valentine 3-D!

Please please please, if you can still do it, go and see My Bloody Valentine in 3-D. It's like a roller coaster opened at your local theater and you had no idea. Seriously, when's the last time you could go see a wide-release slasher film in theaters? Jaws 3-D? GO! It's nuts fun. Yell at the screen! Eat some popcorn! Grab the person next to you! Bring 12 friends! Kidnap a baby, raise it to love slasher films, teach it how to master 3-D technology and bring about an army of 3-D movies for future generations in which a character has a pick-axe shoved through their eyeball!!!

And I'm not gonna try and review this beauty. Instead, I want to share with you something I didn't realize when I was going in to the theater:

Tom Atkins is in this motherfucker.



Yeah. Tom Atkins. He's still around and kicking all the shit out of bad guys. In honor of his surprise (to me) role in this film, I now give you the top 8 reasons I love Tom Atkins:

He plays Rehme in


He plays Stan in


He plays Dr. Dan Challis in


He plays Frank McCrae in


He plays Michael Hunsaker in


He plays Detective Ray Cameron in


He plays Nick Castle and (sleeps with Jamie Lee Curtis) in


And, of course, he made my heart happy by playing Sheriff Burke in


Thank you, Tom!

And you, reader, must go and have a good time asap at My Bloody Valentine 3-D. Just look at this picture I had a stranger take of me when I exited the theater with my 3-D specs still on and a bag of Watchmen (!) popcorn:

That's joy on my face.
