Inside a dog it's too dark to read.

Lynch worked with Jungian archetypes it would take the rest of the world decades to understand.
A white, wealthy woman stands on her front stoop, a large, approving smile on her face, while wearing a voluminous fur coat and holding a glass of wine, as she looks on at anti-Trump protests.

1989 wasn't great, but we did have this.
Album cover for Crash Test Dummies Ghosts That Haunt Me showing a sketch from the Coleridge poem Rime of the Ancient Mariner which shows a thin, wispy figure down on the deck of a ruined sailing ship while a cloaked skeleton of Death sits looking overtop it, waiting.

Of all of Carpenter's films, Prince of Darkness was the one that really tested me. Deeply, deeply unsettling, and I don't just mean Jameson Parker in a moustache, though that should have tipped me off about the rest of the film.
A blond man in a typically 80s bland hairstyle wearing a dark navy polo shirt. His upper lip supports a thick yet unsettling moustache that appears too hirsute by half as it stealthily creeps down the edges of his mouth occupying that liminal space between a full porn stache and a creepy dad-doing-school-carpool lipduster.

Three men are at a boardroom table. From left to right, an older man, bald with moustache in a grey suit looking into the middle distance, in the middle a middle-aged man wearing a playful casual button up shirt and a brown cap, on the right a young man with bright pink checkered vest, light pink tie and a goatie.

Screenshot of two accounts, posting 21 seconds apart, the top account asking "he dead?" the one immediately below saying "according to some he's dead".

American cinema peaked here.
Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy enjoy an afternoon in the park riding their bicycles. Kermit is performing a stunt by balancing on one foot on the seat with his hands in the air while Piggy is riding her red touring bike with a basket in front, she is wearing a purple floral sunday dress with matching lilac long gloves.

Drop an old person that you're going to turn into in the future.
An elderly man wearing homespun clothing, his white hair and beard denote advanced age. Played by Peter Ustinov, he is a character in a dystopian future who does not live within the utopian confines of the sheltered habitat but lives alone in a library reading books which are no longer known to exist and raising cats.

This picture of David Duchovny had me imagining an alternate reality where Corey Hart revived his career by transitioning to acting via a role in a primetime cop drama.
A man with short dark hair stands behind an old, shattered window pane. He is wearing a pale blue dress shirt with an unimaginative grey tie. He has on a police gun holster and wears a visible badge on the belt of his charcoal dress pants.

This is a picture of him from The Eyes of Laura Mars (1978).

I think he was born as a 48 year old man and has very gradually aged since then.
A man with long-ish dark hair, common style for the late 1970s, sits wearing a dark turtleneck. He has a quiet, intense expression of listening on his face though his eyes appear calm.

Drop a bad guy you actually love
A gaunt man, pale and cadaver-like, glares up at the camera. His lips are black and drawn and has an almost vampire-like appearance. He wears a full-body leather suit with helmet that exposes his eyes and high cheekbones, the end of his nose and mouth so that one feels immediately that he is a very dangerous creature, cold and lethal.

Willem Dafoe / Willem Dafriend
A young man in very theatrical makeup screams in rage, his mouth open wider than one would imagine possible, his eyes are filled with hate. His hair is in a 60s style pompadour and he is wearing a black leather jacket. The same man, now years older, smiles amiably, his eyes are gentle and listening, his mouth is creased with a wide smile, capped with a comfortable moustache, and appears ready to listen and invest in what you have to share.

Margot Serious
A photo of young Margot Kidder, she is wearing a pink blouse with a gold hoop necklace, her expression is warm, yet calm and serious as she stares directly into the camera.

Drop something Scientific, you say?
A man in a costumey lab coat stands in front of a smaller actor wearing a detailed alligator costume with an army-green tank top and dog-tags, having just been turned into a humanoid alligator. The set is junior-high-play levels of bad decor with spray-painted pieces of packing styrofoam glued to a plywood backdrop. It is a still image from the 1996 movie, Repligator.

Couldn't find a photo of his dad, but I got one of him on the phone with his son.
A smiling man is talking on the phone with his father, he is wearing a grey sweatshirt and sitting in the radio room of a Korean War-era army medical unit. He is smiling sincerely as he converses with his father back in the US, whom he misses dearly.

A black and white photo taken a split second before a woman, standing behind a marching young male neo-nazi skinhead, lands her heavy purse directly on his shiny little racist dome. Her face is tight with anger and fury at him and her stance is strong and defiant.

Mel is several years behind the times here.
The movie poster for a horror film, Gingerbread Man 2: The Passion of the Crust, features a frightening looking gingerbread man holding a knife popping out of a pie with the berry juice taking the role of blood.

Carney to Trump:
A young, dark-haired girl - a second-lieutenant of the Popular Girls - says emphatically to another girl outside of their clique "you can't sit with us!"

Inside you are two wolves...
A man stands next to his exact duplicate, they are identical in clothing, expression and body language. Both men wear black leather pants, a black t-shirt and a burgundy vest. The man on the left is different only insofar as he has a dark olive t-shirt draped over his shoulder which has been suggested as a means by which he can differentiate himself from his doppleganger.

A dark pony sits overlooking a vast ocean, the sun beats down but the horse's gaze is set on the distant horizon, it appears pensive and melancholy.

Why did the Hiphopopotamus suddenly spring to mind while reading this?
Two white New Zealand men stand awkwardly in an alley as we look over the shoulders of two New York bullies while the awkward duo rap "Can you be more constructive with your feedback, please." One man wears a light brown corduroy jacket while the other wears a high-visibility harness over his black sweater.

Close-up of a young woman's face. She is looking directly at the camera, her brown hair in a ponytail, hoop earrings, and an expression of patience barely restrained in what looks like a very hot sun. Also, her face and neck are covered in fake blood that looks like it is getting stickier by the second in a very hot sun.

An iconic scene of British weekend revelry, a middle-aged man lies drunk on his side in the middle of a road, his bottle the only thing held in proper orientation to the world around him, while another man lies atop a gutter being restrained by two officers while a woman in evening dress hovers over yelling at him, in the background are various observers whose expressions range from the bemused to the apathetic. Rule Britannia!
