Cinemorgue
Surely you often ask yourself, "How many gruesome screen deaths has my favorite actor or actress died, and in what films?"
No? Not a common question of yours?
Nonetheless, you will probably still find Cinemorgue somewhat fascinating.
Maybe WU-vies will share their favorite cinematic death scenes with others. The weirder, the better, of course.

Behind the Scenes—Great Movies
I've included two of my favorite pictures from this website which shows some great behind the scene photos from movies including "Alien", "Blade Runner", "Metropolis", "Superman", "Star Wars", "Godzilla" and many others.
You can't call a guy enjoying toast and tea a monster.
You can even see R2-D2 in an altered state!!

GI Joe in Space
After his old-school sedate debut in 1967 (first video), GI Joe's outer space adventures turned decidedly weird in the 1970s, thanks apparently to the influence of Stanley Kubrick.

(Queen of the) Amazons
Here's a twist. Usually, I present the trailer first, then the full film it represents. But I can't find the full film for Roger Corman's Amazons trailer (1986) above. And I can't find the trailer for the feature length Queen of the Amazons (1947) below. So you get the trailer for one, and then the full other feature. But they are both so bad, you probably wouldn't have noticed if I didn't mention it, despite a 40-year gap and one being in color and one in B&W!!
Enjoy both!

Happy Easter 2013!
Personally, I think it's weird that we can peek at our ancestors from nearly 85 years ago. Be sure to catch the sylph-like dancing starting around the four-minute mark.
