Suffer with me.
Is it just me or does Brad Dourif channel Buster Keaton sometimes
That eyeroll, lord have mercy
Buster Keaton in The Cook (1918)
Woof, what a hottie... Brad Dourif's character, Sam Kramer aka David Bell, from Spontaneous Combustion (1990). Aka, little orphan boy.
WIP: I have a bunch more ideas for this, but I'm happy with this stopping point. Probably because I've already drawn all the fun nakey bits
Loosely based on Hot Satan, aka Guillaume Geefs' Le génie du mal: that thing where the church commissioned a guy to sculpt Satan, but he was too hot! So they got his brother to sculpt a second Satan, but it was EVEN HOTTER 😩🔥
I also did this Spontaneous Combustion music video you might enjoy
Some choice quotes from the sculpture's Wikipedia page:
-> Geefs' work replaces an earlier sculpture created for the space by his younger brother Joseph Geefs, L'ange du mal, which was removed from the cathedral because of its distracting allure and "unhealthy beauty".
-> (About the first one) The cathedral administration declared that "this devil is too sublime." The local press intimated that the work was distracting the "pretty penitent girls" who should have been listening to the sermons. ... A languid scarf skims the groin, the hips are bared, and the open thighs form an avenue that leads to shadow ... L'ange du mal has been called "one of the most disturbing works of its time."
-> Whether Guillaume succeeded in removing the "seductive" elements may be a matter of individual perception.
When I'm done I should rank his Doctors in order of how utterly done with everyone and everything they are.
I've been on a Brad Dourif hyperfixation for like six months now. The restorative power of staring at this one hot guy has somehow pulled me through a profound creative burnout.... and here are the results! (See #my bradrot for the latest)

P.S.: I don't repost fundraisers and stuff here because this is my fun stupid side account. I do those things on main; this is more of a release valve. Big love to those doing the work on here, though.
OK, fellow Brad Dourif enjoyers, we need to find some good comparison photos to reblog this with, because look! I had to do a double-take at the resemblance.
This Progeny interview posted by @exdeputysonso seems to fit pretty well, but I'm sure there are better examples out there:
