🎶i cant seem to face up to facts
Im tense and nervous and i cant relax
I cant sleep 'cause my bed is on fire
Dont touch me im a real live wire!

Psycho Killer!!

Qu' est-ce que c'est!?!

Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far away...🎶

1. For a crazy pants guy i nominate Joe Spinellii in Maniac...he was chillingly insane in this horror classic!
*shoutout to Elijah Wood who did a fine job in the remake but im team Joe on this one

2. For a crazy pants gal i nominate Charlize Theron...how she could look so nuts and haggard and 'holy shit run away' is beyond me but she nailed the lunatic lady role!

Care to share a favorite scary killer performance you enjoyed?

How about Robert Mitchum in ANYTHING! LOL - his name is in the dictionary next to the words - "bad ass"

[–] ShogunofYonkers (72271) 6 years ago

Yep...his actual life was possibly more baddass than anything he starred in!!

He escaped from a chain gang for Pete's sake😂
Who does that!?!

I know! He was amazing in the original Cape Fear, more frightening than DeNiro , IMO. and in The Night of the Hunter. Yikes!😱

I enjoyed Michael Caine in Dressed to Kill.

Daniel Day-Lewis as Bill 'The Butcher' Cutting. One scary mother.

Ed Harris in just cause.
