A Must See For All Brad Dourif Fans


Pretty much summed it up in the subject.

I haven't seen this film yet, whats it like? Brad Dourif is my favourite actor, I just saw Spontaneous Combustion for the first time since I was 12, I didn't realize then that it starred Brad! I had probably only seen him in Childs Play & Graveyard Shift back then. Have you seen it (SC)? I love when the guy gets mad - like in Exorcist III.



"If your in on this.....then F""" YOU!"

P.S. Blue Velvet's on TV at the moment. Brad appears to be a geezer in a dodgy silver jacket called Raymond. Lynch is one strange cookie! See Eraserhead for any further confirmation.

Hey! Its got Al from Quantum Leap as a transvestite! Cool.

i REALLY want to see this film. What's it like? ive seen some clips and pics on Brad Dourif websites...whos that guy that he's always with? any good quoets from the movie anyone can tell me?

May Profits Be With You!

The guy he's with is Willy, a french college student that his character, Martin, makes friends with before they even know eachother's names.

My personal favorite quotes:

"I want to suffer." - Martin

"Don't mention it... Or, please do and buy me a drink."
"I'm broke."
"I'm broke, too."
"So, lets get married!"
"Let's get drunk first." - Martin and Willy

"Nothing happened." - Martin

"Don't believe anything that anybody says onstage, or anywhere else for that matter." - Martin

"I hate cheap hotels! They smell." - Martin

this story is inveracious and actually, I didn't like his performance at all. Dourif appears to me like some Jack Nicholson impersonator and besides, most of dialogues are week, in my opinion. from the message above me, whe can deduce that Dourifs discourse is just a series of sturdy mono-sentences with which his caracter is painted.

Inveracious?? Don't know the meaning and neither does google, although it does have some search results.
