*spoiler alert The story of Klaatu, the alien from another world was first told in the original version of The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) and was remade with the same title in 2008. The movies are a cautionary tale and the first one in particular is an excellent one and nicely observed from…

My name is Josh and my cock is very uncircumcised or uncut. I hope I can be in the movies one day and take my clothes off to show what I’m made of. It’s not a long cock and people might say my loose brown foreskin is ugly…. But I’ve had girls who say it’s…

*contains spoilers “We’ve been dealt their doomwatch/Doomwatch,” says a local villager on the Hebridean island of Summerisle off the coast of Scotland in The Wicker Man (1973) … On the surface there seems to be an unhappy conspiracy on this island (Earth!) as actor Edward Woodward (1930-2009 in Truro, Cornwall) is an incorruptible puritan virgin…
