[burtonrules123]

wow this movie looks strange and its weird to barnabus in a "sexual" way. but it was so cool at the same time! didnt realize how muscular he was.

[AGAFilms89]

Not too bad of a movie, I just got it and I do like it... I think Oliver had definitely improved on editing ;-) Watched this and WallStreet You got to start somewhere and this was a pretty good start. Intriguing, creepy, and sexy at times. <3 JFrid!

[Rorschachthe3rd]

So this is what Oliver Stone made as his first feature movie? A psychadelic Canadian horror financed by questionable backers? Sounds about right...

[cactusblue60]

@Rorschachthe3rd LOL, that's about as concise a summary as I've heard, and spot on.

[AGAFilms89]

$ the movie on Amazon, read that the quality isn't good. :( But I'm a movie buff nad I'd much rather see it in whichever way possible, but it better not be a bootleg where you can only see their feet! I need to see face, you know who's face in particular ;-)



[cactusblue60]

@AGAFilms89 LOL, the current version of the face is not bad, either. The version on Amazon is the "official" version of the movie. I understand it was shot on poor quality film stock, and it's not even certain the master print exists. But after seeing the restored "Metropolis" recently, and seeing how much they were able to clean up even the somewhat damaged Buenos Aires footage...surely something better than what's out there could have been done with "Seizure!".

[AGAFilms89]

Three Fingers of Love, OMG!!! How it starts to sensually! Oooo lol! Glad to meet another fan of Frid & Art of Noise! You got taste ;-) <3 I really really wish I knew J. Frid back around these days. That woman is sooooooooo LUCKY!!!!!!!

[AGAFilms89]

Listen to Art of Noise with this scene (Its perfect!) Memonts in Love

[cactusblue60]

@AGAFilms89 Which version, the regular one or the variation, "Three Fingers of Love", which I'm absolutely crazy over -- one of my favorite pieces of music.

[MysticLady2011]

Jonathan had two brothers. I wonder what they looked like.

[cactusblue60]

@MysticLady2011 Jonathan favored his mom's (McGregor) side -- if you've ever seen a photo of his mom or grandfather, it's pretty obvious. His brothers, Ken and Doug, look a little more like the Frid side. Not ugly by any means, but not good-looking the same way Jonathan was.

[dorothysmom]

I bought the dvd on Amazon a few weeks ago, I think I'm going to watch it today.

[Haunted300]

That was one lucky b*tch.

[dorothysmom]

Still love this video Julie. JF was ans one sexy man. No wonder Angelique wanted him so bad.

[cactusblue60]

@dorothysmom: No doubt about it. Charisma by the bucketload, which he still has, amazingly, at 86.

[ljrobbins1651]

It's just an enhanced Pat Down by a TSA Agent !

[cactusblue60]

@ljrobbins1651 : LOL, and nearly 40 years ahead of its time.

[FridFemmeFan]

Very hot scene with Jonathan Frid, though tame by today's standards. There's also a scene where he's "on top." I wonder why he was perspiring through much of the film?

[MysticLady2011]

@FridFemmeFan Because of that perspiring, his shirt clung to his body like a wet T-shirt. Later in the movie, he stood with his back to the camera while the wife stroked his back. His broad shoulders and back are so masculine and sexy, and with that tan and touseled hair...OMG!

[chocolate9875]

I love these older scary movies, never saw this one, loved Dark Shadows w/Barnabas, this one looks interesting

[mmaurer76]

right on snowgirl. Frid was superb and I always-well I was mesmerized by Angelique. Her eyes were nothing short of intoxicating. Thanks for this post

[fridfreak]

I've seen images of him shirtless..OMG what a BABE!!!

[snowgirl1052]

Wow, Johathan, you are HOT! I do think that Angelique could have played this scene better! This is always how I imagined myself and Barabas, lol!

[tubs1000]

It's classic stuff! "Please what have you done with my cat" great lines too.

[cactusblue60]

Ummmm, the line is, "What have you done with my wife?" Otherwise, the rest of the scene doesn't make any sense, him turning down the Queen of Evil and so on. Crank your speakers or phones and listen again. That said, it really is classic 'B' stuff. :-)

[crowleysridgegirl]

This scene could have been played pretty well by Angelique,also.

[Effnfun]

What a heart throb! And he did a good job of keeping his private life private, if you know what I mean....

[wordsmystrys]

I've always wanted to see this in its entirety; so glad you posted this segment!!! Thanks!!!

JF also appears in a movie called "The Devil's Daughter" with Shelley Winters, playing the role of a silent housekeeper.

[sunnitimes4]

OMG! Barnabas! What would Julia say? LOL! I don't think we ever saw Barnabas shirtless!

[wordsmystrys]

I think the closest we came to him shirtless or in open-shirt, was during the "Adam Experiment" procedure, he was in pajamas.

[samgracesmom]

Holy moly! Too bad Barnabas never got any shirt open or shirtless scenes, He was always buttoned up to the neck in three piece suits or period costumes. Damn!

[NicholasBlairStudios]

Interesting scene. Thanks for sharing.

[skweeger]

not even scary... just weird

[cactusblue60]

This is sort of out of context; in context, it's scary more in a disturbing way, the way you get scared by a weird dream, only to wake up and realize it was a dream. That very element is part of what makes this movie interesting. Not great, but definitely interesting.

[zigzagbigbag]

I saw this at the drive in when I was a kid...scared the shiit outta me.

[vickilaw]

I haven't seen this movie, but it looks like it was a real turkey. No offense to JF.

[GrvYrdTrn]

Hot tamales! I smoked a whole pack of something and I don't even smoke! I have this around here somewhere, but since I'm too lazy to locate it, this is the next best thing. Too bad they never utilized Barn in this way. Darn those censors...Or, was he too shy to go without his shirt? He was always so uptight. Loosen that collar some more, some more, some more, Barn, I say! (Forgive me; old age setting in.)

[cactusblue60]

LOL, the funny thing was, he sure didn't seem to be too shy about taking his shirt off for other photographers. I don't get it, in this role, it would have surely been appropriate for him to have had his shirt off if he were trying to go to sleep. He does later, but we see very little.

[valjazz]

Barnabas! That was HOT!!

[thesmutpeddler]

Great to see Martine looking luscious. Imagining a love scene between her and Frid is a horror movie fan's inside-joke; credit Oliver Stone with bringing them together (plus Herve Villechaise ("de plane! de plane!) and Mary Woronov for "Seizure". Too bad it wasn't a better movie since the cast is, literally, to die for.

[cactusblue60]

LOL, yeah, but you'll note Frid turned her down.

[thesmutpeddler]

Ahhhh...but this is all part of the story, my friend.

[dichas]

Barnabas, what would Dr. Hoffman say??

[Ca8Amy8]

I love these horror movies, so much better than the stuff they ahev out today

[MrsChristopherAsher]

I enjoyed watching JF as someone other than Barnabas.  I realized while watching it that instinctively I felt a sibling relationship. Regardless of what role he plays JF will always be my cherished older brother.

[cagalina]

john is sexy as hell!

[Lthernek]

Dark Shadows,the Adult version. I love this clip.

[dominique777]

SEXY SEEN.

[MadMoll]

but... but ... I LOVE BAD HORROR MOVIES.

[Matalizari]

Oy.

[cactusblue60]

RE: question about Oliver Stone -- I guess he had nowhere to go but up.

[atrybus]

I'm scarred for life! Hilarious,and a little nauseating. *chuckle*

How the hell did Oliver Stone ever get another director job??
