I liked Roy Ward Baker a lot as a director. He directed Don't Bother to Knock with Marilyn Monroe in her first big role as a dangerous babysitter. Richard Widmark and Anne Bancroft were great in it too. #TheMonsterClub #SonOfSvengoolie #Svengoolie
I think David Lynch would have loved Gwen's 50s style beauty. She would have been great in Mulholland Drive #SonOfSvengoolie #Svengoolie #TheMonsterClub
Stick around for #SonOfSvengoolie because #TheMonsterClub is actually a GOOD movie #Svengoolie
