Who Killed Bambi?
This song must be played at my funeral as loud as possible.
Murder murder murder
Someone should be angry
The crime of the century
Who shot little Bambi
Never trust a hippie
'Cause I love punky Bambi
I'll kill to find the killer
In that rotten roll army
All the spikey punkers
Believers in the ruins
With one big shout
They all cry out
Who killed Bambi?
Tenpole Tudor, The Sex Pistols & cast in The Great Rock & Roll Swindle (1980).
Murder murder murder

The crime of the century
Who shot little Bambi
Never trust a hippie
'Cause I love punky Bambi
I'll kill to find the killer
In that rotten roll army
All the spikey punkers
Believers in the ruins
With one big shout
They all cry out

Dance to Hecate
Skip to 5:55 for the dance in the temple of Hecate.
Nancy Kovack (Medea) & cast in Jason and the Argonauts (1963).
This movie makes me a little sad, since the ending is Jason and Medea escaping Colchis together, with a very happily-ever-after feeling. Poor Jason, he has no idea what is in store for him.
Bonus! How can I post anything about this movie without posting the famous fight scene from the end, featuring an army of skeletons grown from the teeth of the hydra? I can't! This scene is amazing, and holds up against any CGI effects even 46 years later. Harryhausen is the master of stop motion.
