started a brad scenes supercuts drive ✨
will regularly update as i go through more stuff
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:
Conrad Veidt portrait
Pigs are actually quite intelligent.
There’s a high-quality face smoosh in Death Machine too, AND a face-grabby kiss in Spontaneous Combustion!
I get it… I really do
Pictures of people smooshing Brad’s face. He’s got a smooshable face.
When I was first scrounging around for Bradthirst material, I came across these pieces by @anonmarleighdourif (humanpincushion on DeviantArt). They have an incredible talent for capturing his likeness, especially the eyes.
So lush, these are a huge inspiration for me. I just want to stare at them all day long.
Brad Dourif movie bingo! For your thirstwatch Halloween marathon.
Don't remember whether I came up with "Dourisms" or saw it somewhere else, but there are SO MANY and so few squares on a bingo board! Reducing them to tiny phrases is another challenge; I might do some follow-up posts with gifs illustrating each column. (Surely not an excuse to dig through the media pile again...)
What are your favorite little Brad flourishes?
** Updated: Now with more bondage!
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)

And maybe some fics... someday? 🫣
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.
put together a brad dourif character tiermaker ✨
...I put the protagonist guy in and it's so much better.
Ouf, I had to actually draw someone I'm not attracted to... is this what they meant about suffering for one's art 😔

when bae is so beautiful you have to immediately TKO them on the pool table 🥵
Still wringing every drop of creative energy from this Dourif fixation 💞
Tried my hand at rotoscoping this mesmerizing Miami Vice gif (from this set by @exdeputysonso):
The scornful, slouchy staredown here really gets me thinking some special thoughts. And he's doing the thing where he gets all up in someone's face, eyes drilling into theirs from inches away — which by all reports is very truly menacing, but even so...
Then there's that beautifully sleazy little outfit with the shirt and chains... I'm so weak for a well-formed neck and décolletage. (The clothes they put him in really are second to none, including ridiculous loungewear and an iconic courtroom ensemble; see this other gifset for more)
There's an added air of threat from the tiny pupils, which really brings out the cold blue in his eyes, amped up by the matching shirt.
Dropping a few individual frames below the cut...
(He looks a bit cross-eyed because he's focusing on the guy's face like 6 inches away)
