"Pazuzu Rest?"

Someone watches bad movies.....
rtpoe

The snapping of pitch from a burning log,
The faint scent of pine filling the room.
Flames leaping about as if it were a ballet
Performing for its audience.
The soft, comforting glow of candlelight,
Bringing with it serenity and quiet thoughts.

or bad music (metal) PAZUZU, an ancient Sumerian Demon, worshipped thousands of years before the birth of monotheistic religions, was dreaded for his appearance and ruthlessness.

I'm not sure what movie you're referencing.  Or at least I don't remember it at the moment.

Pazuzu is the name of the demon character.  I looked up something like "demon names" or something like that on Google, then had Wolf pick one out of a big list.

...Pazuzu is also the name of Professor Farnsworth's gargoyle in Furutama.

It's from one of the worst films of all time (and I don't mean in a fun way like Plan Nine From Outer Space): Exorcist II: The Heretic

 
Quote:

 If The Heretic is dealt a crippling blow by the first appearance of "the Synchroniser" (of which, more anon), it suffers its mortal wound upon the utterance of the line, "I am Pazuzu!" And when at the end of the film - among many other delights - we have a character shrieking "PAAAAZUUUUZUUUU!!!!" in a way that makes William Shatner’s delivery of the word "Khan" in Star Trek II seem subtle and restrained by comparison, the Heretic is finally sung to its rest with a loud chorus of helpless, irrepressible laughter.

Nice update, Lightfoot, I hadn't seen either of the last 2 pages for The Adept yet.  I'm looking forward to seeing how they get past this wall.  

I still enjoy Stone Of Adventure a lot, but it saddens me that you and Wolfman seem to be the only people still contributing to it.

I apologize in advance if I post duplicate pictures in any of the picture threads I deal in.  My MO in getting pictures of one girl is to rip her Instagram.  That ends up with me having up to 2000 pics of her.  I've tried almost half a dozen duplicate finder programs, and none of them find all of the duplicates I inevitably end up with.
