Vampire Vixens of the Wehrmacht
« on: 03 June, 2011, 02:40:02 AM »
We get a big write-up over at FP and it doesn't really fit comfortably in other threads, so it gets one of its own:

http://forbiddenplanet.co.uk/blog/2011/vampire-vixens/

You can catch-up on previous coverage here:

if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

"The story itself, drawn by a small press writer only known as Emperor"

Blimey Emps, was Alex just colouring in your pencils then? You dark horse  :)

That looks very tasty!

There's a curious solecism in the Forbidden Planet write-up: "on a mission with a Chaplin"

That's a chaplain, surely?



P.S. - I may wait for the film!  ;)

My thoughts exactly. It looks tailor made for the Hollywood treatment.

Looks proper right dead sexeh and that. I'll be reading the fuck out of it.

Hopefully out as a stand alone soon-ish?

Loved this poster...

I will name him Tharg, and I will hug him and pet him and squeeze him.

Yeah he finally owned up to be rubbish at drawing and asked for my help because of all that art stuff I've been doing (drawing and all that, he says airily waving at a pencil and some paper).

That looks very tasty!

Nope. Chaplin.

It all plays into that Hitler/Chaplin mistake but I don't want to spoil the rest of the story and to try and cover up this unfortunate leak (and to spare Alex's blushes) I have posted a few "corrections" on their blog. Honest. Although now I say all that it is almost plausible... I'm off to make some notes.

P.S. - I may wait for the film!  ;)

Yeah can't be long now - all we need is someone to express an interest, cough up some cash for the options, cast it, shoot it and release it. Easy now we have done all the hard work ;)

Hopefully out as a stand alone soon-ish?

I suppose it depends on how soon is soon-ish but we've been discussing ideas and we'd ultimately like a nice collected volume.

The FP article has now been updated to conform better with consensus reality, it lives on in my head where I'm drawing vampire Nazis vs Charlie Chaplin very badly. I hop everyone is happier with the tawdry turn-of-affairs.

Been loving this so far.
Fingers crossed this gets the attention and expansion it deserves

Pity I can't watch it in England.

Englishness has nothing to do with it. You can't watch it 'cos it's over a month old.

Another casuality of the Missing Week, this review of Vampire Vixens, which is they kind of review you can point to and say "they got it":

http://horrorcultfilms.co.uk/2011/09/vampire-vixens-of-the-wehrmacht/

Both Alex and I have posted our thoughts on it:
