Bagheads: The Photo Shoot

Last night I got together with David, T and Bryan to watch The Orphanage, a Spanish horror film from last year. I had never heard of it before seeing a picture from it last week, and that picture alone was enough to make me shoot that puppy right to the top of my Netflix DVD queue. I didn't really want to know much more going into it - I like to be fresh when I watch some movies. This one was definitely one of them. All I knew was that it was about a haunted old orphanage and that it featured a creepy kid with a scarecrow-like sack over his head. Any horror movie that features creepy children, dolls or clowns is something I will always be down for. And really, look at the picture I saw that made me want to check out The Orphanage:



Isn't that kid awesome?? I love it. (Sadly, he was only in the movie briefly in about three scenes. We spent most of the rest of the time yelling, "Where is the sackhead?" and then making unfortunate jokes about sacs and little boys.)

In honor of our viewing of the movie, David suggested that we get together a little early and make our own evil bags to wear over our heads and then take pictures of us in them. You don't have to ask me twice when an invitation like that comes along. I think we all assumed that we'd just take a couple of pictures, but once we started, we couldn't stop laughing so then we kept going and then mayhem ensued. I am still laughing about some of them. But first, here are the Baghead players:









Oh, Bagheads. You know, they're just like normal folks, sort of like the celebrities in US Magazine's 'Stars! They're Just Like Us!' feature. For example, Bagheads do laundry:



They go to the bathroom just like everyone else:



They even read Martha Stewart magazines:



And drive cars:



But they also do so, so much more. We took a bunch more pictures but I didn't want to fill up my whole page with Baghead pictures, so I decided to put them all on the next page. Click below to see the whole photo shoot - it rules.

Okay, I'll admit that one is a little creepy, but the Bagheads can also have a lot of fun! Just look:



Fun! And romance....



 

They even like to celbrate holidays while hanging out with child-goat figurines in creepy basements:







And there are always more chores to be done:













Okay, so sometimes the Bagheads get a little curious:





And maybe they have their share of bad days:



And maybe they tend to get a little bit angry or destructive:





But that doesn't mean that they don't ultimately want peace. They do! They want peace and harmony so they can make MySpace pages and throw gang signs in their pictures:



Okay, and maybe they want a little bit of privacy in the bathroom:



But that doesn't mean that you should come and kill the poor Bagheads:







Okay, maybe just that one with the balloon - he's a creepy bastard.

We need to be neighbors or something. I mean, closer than this half a country away from each other. Because I need to be able to participate in activities like this. I need to be a baghead too.

Seriously. You need to sell that house and move here. Or at least to New York. :-)

[Randommuse (remember?)]

Okay, that movie poster creeped me the hell out!!! But, that of course was remedied by the instructional photo shoot of how bag heads "are just like us"/jerri blank

And yeah, I wanna be in a bag head photo shoot. Stupid Oklahoma!
