Lio by Mark Tatulli for January 01, 2023

classic

What style is this? Dick Tracy style or something?

It took a little bit of google-ing, but Father Merrin is The Exorcist.

I guess I need to take the blue pill and chug a beer to understand this.

EXORSIST

Have you tried turning it off then on again?

The TV looked like it was doing its usual thing, what’s to fix?

it’s a scene from The Exorcist

“There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. … We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. … we will control all that you see and hear. We repeat: There is nothing wrong with your television set. …

Cue “Tubular Bells”

Ah…The Exorcist. Iconic scene…and music

One of the most striking, iconic scenes in movie history. Captain Howdy approves.

Another night, another job…….

Great one!

Just be sure to pay your exorcist — otherwise you’ll get repossessed!

Tried to watch the Twilight Zone marathon last night on the Sci Fi channel but every. single. commerical. break was the same P-hell-oton commercial, repeated over and over and over. I turned it off after 30 minutes. Thanks Sci Fi for lousing up Rod Serling and making it unwatchable.

MST2K: The people we write the jokes for will get them.

Does Lio live in Scary Gary’s neighborhood?

All the TVs I’ve had have hypnotized me and tried to sell me things. Where can I get an exorcist?

The Exorcist. Be afraid.

Truly sad, Lio’s dad has no internet. That is the real Demon that needs exorcizing…

Nice.

Videodrome!
