Supernatural : Monster Movie





Last night's episode of Supernatural which is entirely in gorgeous black and white, and opens with the Warner Brothers logo and credits in the style of 1930s horror movies, is certainly very cool and enjoyable, so much so that I want to blog it. The dialogues are also cute.

For instance :

Dean: Which leads me to conclude, sadly, that my virginity is intact.
Sam: What?
Dean: I've been re-hymenated!
(Dean was killed and dragged back to life by an angel named Castiel.)

Dean: Hey, you think this Dracula can turn into a bat? That’d be cool.

Dean: Son of a bitch!
Dracula: You should not use such language in the presence of my bride.
Dean: Okay.

Pizza Delivery Boy: Uhh, pizza delivery.
Dracula: Ah, you have brought a repast. Excellent. Continue to be of such service, and your life will be spared.
Pizza Delivery Boy: Uh-huh. That’ll be $15.50.
Dracula: Tell me…
Pizza Delivery Boy: Yeah?
Dracula: Is there… garlic on this pizza?
Pizza Delivery Boy: I don’t know. Did you order garlic?
Dracula: No!
Pizza Delivery Boy: Then no. Look, mister, I’ve got four other deliveries to make. You want to just pay me the money so I can go?
Dracula: Of course. Yes. But I have a coupon.

Dean: Hero gets the girl, monsters gets the gank. All in all, happy ending. With a happy ending, no less.
Sam: Real classy, Dean.

This stand-alone episode
is about Sam and Dean looking into a string of murders committed at Oktoberfest. The first victim is found with bite marks, leading them to believe they were caused by Dracula. However, the second victim appears to be killed by a werewolf. When a mummy rises from the crypt, Dean believes that a shape-shifting creature is behind the attacks.

Not so much about the storyline. It is the way they shoot it. I have a stomach-cramped laugh when Dracula is getting away from Dean's pursue on a vespa scooter, his cape flapping behind him. Gosh! This is hilarious. The other scene that tickles me is when a couple are making out in the car under the full moon while a wolf howls in the distance. A wolf-like creature approaches the car (you just see those hairy hands and claws) then rips the man out of the car as the girl screams. A classic werewolf movie scene. With Bach's
Toccata & Fugue in D Minor as the background music, you really get the feel.

Perfect !




The below is the shapeshifter. He really looks like the classic Dracula, doesn't he ?


Have I forgotten to mention that last night was a full moon. He he he .....
