ED NOTE: We posted this 2 hours before his death was reported. Clearly we control the universe. Watch your ass.
Vincent sent me this link today, apparently wanting me to have a heart attack.
I actually saw MJ in person once before, which was quite the horrific tale in an of itself. Maybe I’ll tell it one day.
If you want a present guaranteed to scare everyone you know, you can buy it here.
Damn I want this. On one hand I’m not 14 and I have a respectable image to maintain, and part of that image is having matching, earth-toned bathroom materials. On the other hand this is a shower curtain with bloody handprints on it.
Other hand wins!
Everyone knows how much Ghost ‘n Goblins was a hope-raping despair fest, but when I was a kid of limited resources in Charlotte, NC, playing through the first 3 levels (because come on, no one got further than that) was as close as I could get to cohorting with Satan. Needless to say I played it all the time.
Here are two videos unrelated to anything other than my lack of recent posts (Summer is awful) showing a complete playthrough of the second time you had to beat it, after finding out the first “room” was an “illusion.”
GO AHEAD DAUNTLESSLY! MAKE RAPID PROGRESS!
There is a NY Post article today that talks about a project involving students and teachers at IS 145 in Jackson Heights, Queens. Some of the instructors received a federal grant for media and arts, which they parlayed into an innovative film project which is titled “School of the Dead”, and should be ready for showing this fall.
One might think that the idea of 8th graders creating a horror movie is inherently wrong and fucked up, but apparently it is done with more of an emphasis on the fear, and even the actual escape (rather than the capture), and either way has gotten a load of kids interested in the arts and film making when they otherwise may not have. I give it thumbs-up.
You can follow news and updates from the school on their blog.
So this dude designed a bookshelf which can be converted into a coffin. The kicker? They are custom made to actually fit you, so it’s not just some gimic. Seriously. You can save loads of money doing it this way.
Since it’s officially summertime (which means only one season separates us from Halloween), this blog is obviously relevant. Check out Goths in Hot Weather, which should bring plenty of laughs to you.
For example we have the Milf Goth:
Regardless of your stance on the Goths, this is amusing as hell.
A good post will come of it. We went to a horror convention. ‘Twas fun.
While purusing the Geeks of Doom today, I came across their very lovely review of the DVD for My Name is Bruce. I still haven’t seen the movie, but after reading the condensed comic version, I have been looking forward to it.
Let me say that I absolutely love Bruce Campbell, and pretty much everything that he touches. So the fact that I haven’t already seen this movie disturbs me very greatly. I just need to get over myself and see it.
I also think that he’s pretty much the only actor who could ever portray himself in a movie and get away with it. The chin lives.
