The Shelley Duvall case gets more bizarre by the day.

Failed GoFundMe campaign.

Scientology. (Vivian Kubrick is a die hard Scientologist)

Alex Jones.

Scientology looms as Kubrick daughter scraps Shelley Duvall crowdfunding campaign

Jennifer Tilly gave $500, just one of 660 concerned fans who donated to a GoFundMe campaign that aimed to raise $100,000 for Shelley Duvall, the quirky, Minnie Mouse-voiced star of films like Stanley Kubrick's “The Shining” and Robert Altman's “Nashville” and “Popeye.” Now Tilly will be getting her donation back — and be left wondering, no doubt, exactly what happened.

Dr. "I was the worst marriage counselor" Phil, who when he connected with Oprah Fucking Winfrey, became TV's counselor for -- you guessed it -- fucking marriage counseling!!

Like everyone Oprah Winfrey touches (fucking anti-vaccination kook Jenny McCarthy, woo-woo medicine fucking Dr. Oz, fucking fraud faith healer and psychic surgeon John of God, etc, etc.) she is the bottom of the barrel.

Fucking Oprah is evil. As is fucking Dr. Phil.

allow me to summarize:

-- Shelley Duvall is suffering from mental illness
-- Dr. Phil aired an interview exploiting her mental illness
-- Stanley Kubrick's daughter Vivian started a GoFundMe campaign to help her
-- But then she ended the campaign and refunded contributions.
-- The Scientology connection is that people are speculating that Scientology has something to do with that. Vivian Kubrick is apparently a Scientologist.
