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)

🎧 prettyboy music videos

Supercut of hottie moments (Boys)

The X-Files (Shinigami Eyes)

Spontaneous Combustion (You Spin Me)

Death Machine (Wrecking Ball)

✍️ unstable gif essays

Scrungly feature analysis: Brad Dourif's eyes

Popping the headlights (a certain way directors light his eyes)

🎨 BD characters as classical art

Luther Lee Boggs, Brad Dourif's condemned murder-man in The X-Files, with toxic gas swirling around him, coverall around his waist, wrists bound up with a red cord.

Brad's character from Spontaneous Combustion, seated on a nuclear power plant cooling tower, unclothed but for some draped fabric. His hair is catching fire, as is a circle on his arm like burning paper; the right side of his face is darkened by smoke and soot, and limned in orange light from the flames, which also flicker in his eyes: the only color in the image. He wears a black armband and holds a glass pill bottle, from which a few white pills tumble. In the background are cable towers and a pocket watch dial.

Tucker Cleveland (from Graveyard Shift) stands facing left, holding aloft a very dead rat, with a blocky flashlight in his other hand. He's clad in boots, tighty-not-very-whities, black fingerless gloves, and some straps from his coverall (ooo yeah). The background is deep reds and shadows.

Two Tucker Clevelands; the top one (hand up, "no") says "shitty real life boyfriend", and the bottom (pointing, "yes") says "parasocial crush on a wide variety of horrible wet men played by legendary character actor brad dourif"

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.

New hyperfixation go brrrr

(created a new blog, @general-feral , for random guy fixations n thirst art/fics — since this one is heavily dourif)

Reno Sinclair looks up at you saucily with half-closed eyes, his shirt rumpled and open wide. HIs mouth is open in a lascivious smirk, and he's probably going to use that tongue for something...

Upgraded the quality on this one, it's still stupid but at least it looks better 💯💯💯

Brad Dourif in Graveyard Shift, but his van says "Tucker Cleveland's Uterine Destruction" and "Babes 'R' Us" instead of whatever boring crap was on there before

Suffer with me.

brad dourif: shit's getting real when they pop the headlights

X-Files: the crown jewel shot of Brad leaning in through a sideways light source, both eyes gleaming impossibly, as though lit from within

While fawning over BD’s supernaturally gorgeous eyes, I had to pick just a few gifs to illustrate That Thing where directors highlight him from an off-angle so they seem to glow internally. You know something's about to go down when they bust out this trick.

Problem: The X-Files alone is chock-full of this effect, and there are a gajillion more from other media. So: a dedicated post!

Starting with the ole one-eye highlight — they usually pick the right one, which is a little lifted and turned (I'm calling it his cat-eye):

Tales from the Crypt: being shaken around by his brother after making several Very Bad calls

Death Machine: some close-up eeriness from our greasy hacker boy Jack Dante

Wildling: slowly peering up at you over his specs, through a tangle of eyebrows. The visual equivalent of the THX Deep Note

Hittin' em with that old-man eye in Death & Cremation

Fatal Beauty: some wide-eyed side eye. He appears to be "telling it like it is"

Sworn to Justice: heavy breathing and a defensive posture in his fancy little business outfit

Cue the lightning!!!

Charles Lee Ray, doing a occult, lightning flashing in his right eye

Urban Legend: ranting old damp man with a terrible warning that he can't seem to spill

Sometimes it makes an iridescent crescent shape. I know it's meant to be scary, but he's such a terribly pretty boy:

Istanbul: "You. Go out there and play." Such a little asshole

Graveyard Shift: some truly uncanny one-sided iris highlighting in a close-up, during his Vietnam rant

Hazing: just a slow zoom out from an older Dourif's eyeballs. A hint of moustache

Moonlighting: not scary, just a luckless priest in a layman's windowpane-striped shirt, confronting his future

Feral cat-eye in Fatal Beauty: a hunted look

Getting creative with some uplighting and a rare left eye (it's nice to see her getting some attention)...

Critters 4: Al Bert leans dramatically into some upward shafts of light

Brad in the 2024 Chucky TV show. One of the most intense examples, with bright white light shining onto him in a darkened room... still got it!

...And some more extreme angles. How does this even work?!

Mississippi Burning: in extremis, with Gene Hackman all up in his face and shakin' him, covered in shaving cream and regret, and where the hell is that light coming from, it's literally reverberating around in the lens somehow, how is that happening

It's just... captivating. I'm gonna go lie down now. (Think I actually stole all the gifs from @exdeputysonso this time. I'm basically a recycler for all their hard work and tbqh I'm fine with that)
