Funny Pics II: The Revenge


Recommended Posts

It is a reference to the film The Shining. Red Rum is Murder backwards. And the little boy in the film repeats it. The woman is Shelley Duvall who played the mother of said boy. Jack Nicholson played the father. You may have seen the famous 'Here's johnny' extract where he is chasing his wife and she locks herself in the bathroom so he smashes down the door with an axe.

Thanks to you both.

 

you have just added so many layers to this joke.  :D

 

I mean, as a non-Brit, the Red Rum gag was already there, with Shelly Duval reinforcing the reference.  But seeing her smiling like that, and knowing that Red Rum is also a reference to a horse......

 

 

Really; I can't thank you both enough.    :)
