'Seizure!" (1974)

From Oliver Stone's directorial debut in 1974, a scene in which the Queen of Evil (Martine Beswick) tries to seduce author Edmund Blackstone (Jonathan Frid). If you were/are a fan of Barnabas Collins or Mr. Frid, prepare to turn green if you haven't seen this clip before.

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

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

$ 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!".

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

@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.

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.)

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.

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!
