Description
This is my rendition of Virginia, from the DEEPLY AWESOME 1968 drive in flick, Spider Baby. This is one of my newest favorite movies, and I need it on dvd. Birthday money, here I come!Virginia, and the rest of her dwindling family, is nuts. Straight up, bat shit crazy. At the mo there is Virginia, her sister Elizabeth, and their brother Ralph (played by a VERY young Sid Haig) are all that's left of the this branch of the Merrie family, and due to a long line of hedonism, inbreeding, and, I dunno, eating mercury, they're all cuckoo.
Bruno, as played by Lon Cheney, Jr, is their care taker, and as psycho as they all are, they're very loving and tight knit. Virginia loves spiders, and in particular loves to play spider with people. It's all good until she stabs them repeatedly with her trusty, rusty butcher knives.
It's hilarious, and weird, and I LOVES it! I'm gonna draw the rest of 'em soon, I hope!
I doodled this waiting for my Literature class, the only freaking class I really enjoyed last quarter.

i can't even begin to explain how much i love this drawing, it really protrays her personality well.
spider baby is such a great movie, i was thinking about dressing up as virginia next halloween, but i'm guessing only a few random people would get the reference.

Holy crap, you're my new best friend! You're the first person since I've posted this who knows who Virginia is! I say go as her anyway; one of these years I'm going to dress as Varla from Fast Pussycat, Kill Kill, and I guarantee no one's gonna get that one.
Thanks for the kind words!!

Do it. It was seriously good, goofy fun. And it had a lot more heart than I was personally expecting.
