If there’s one alcoholic beverage that’s synonymous with heavy metal, evil, tattoos, etc., it has to be the lovely anise-tinted Jagermeister.

Now Vincent and I both enjoy the occasional tasty beverage, and probably enjoy too many, but this is absolutely insane. What’s worse than a single bottle of Jager? 6.

What’s worse than 6 bottles of Jager? 6 bottles on Jager in a cooler, which implies it needs to be drank in its entirety at whatever event this thing is present.

I couldn’t find a link for buying this thing, and that’s probably a good thing. That’s a death trap if I have ever seen one before.

This interesting post on mental_floss collects some creepy photographs like the one above of Victorian portraits which feature the newly deceased in “living” poses.

Ransom Riggs has another post with more creepy photos of the dead. Check it. Good creepiness for a Sunday.

August 28th, otherwise known as Hallowee… wat? Whatever, Rob Zombie’s newest abortion film comes out tonight, and even though he’s made some awful films in my opinion, I’ll still go see it. To me’s much like Johnny Depp, in that no matter how much shit he puts out, he always recovers and I still think highly of him. Let’s hope this one is ok, for my sake.

Update: Apparently it is far from “ok.”

Holy (or unholy) shit, Adam Beane can sculpt his ass off. CARLOVELY had a post about Adam’s work.

(more…)

Sort of. This is kickass. But why couldn’t this have happened in NYC???

If you’re in the NYC area and have nothing to do tonight, I recommend heading to Brooklyn Bridge Park and checking out Edward Scissorhands, playing as part of the Movies with a View series. You get to see a good movie for free, plus you get a pretty kickass view:

While not exactly a horror film, I still love Edward Scissords for the Tim Burton connection and generally creepy visuals the movie provides. Either way, it’s a good excuse to sneak booze into a park and get out and enjoy the last few days of summer before your life becomes consumed with Halloween season.

I won’t lie, I enjoy the Final Destination series. After heeding the advice of everyone on Earth I finally caught Final Destination 3 last year and holy shit, thems was good eats. That doesn’t make sense, but I really did enjoyed the film and I’ve since gone back to the previous two and I’ve now decided that they have their place. They’re stupid and hilarious, like Yahoo Serious.

In honor of the Final Destination series, the upcoming The Final Destination, and because I’m hungover and linking to other blogs is much easier than writing original content, here’s a link to the 8 most gruesome Final Destination deaths. Enjoy.

The 8 Most Gruesome Final Destination Deaths [via SciFi Wire]

I came across an interesting article the other day. It begins with the following interesting tidbit of information:

If a person dies in a sudden or violent manner, the reikon is thought to transform into a yurei, which can then bridge the gap back to the physical world.

The yurei tend to remain near where they died. They usually appear between 2 and 3 a.m., which is like the western world’s bewitching hour of midnight, and a time when the veils between the world of the dead and that of the living are at their thinnest.

Pretty interesting huh? Well, this article summarizes some of the most haunted places in Japan. They include a hangar bay where disgraced kamikaze fighters killed themselves at the end of WW2, and the Himuro Mansion on the Tokyo outskirts which has been the site of some strange occurrences. From the site:

Many weird happenings have been reported in and near the old mansion; including apparitions of those who once lived there, bloody handprints and sprays of blood, which mysteriously appear on the walls.

Brutal, eh? The mansion has such a haunted history that it was the basis for a video game, Fatal Frame, which I slightly remember from my college days.

The internet is a big place, and it’s my job to direct others who don’t have 10 hours a day (otherwise known as work) to spend shopping towards the very things they should be dropping their cash on. That was a confusing sentence but I swear it checks out. Oh right, buy this!

From the awesome Twilight Zone episode The Nick of Time (starring William Shatner) comes this adorable bobble headed devil. I like to pretend that I’m past the age where I buy any and everything dumb I see online (approximately the ages of 20-24, explained here), but when something like this comes along all bets are off. I’ve already pre-ordered mine and come October it’s going to be agreeing with everything I say.

Update: The full episode is online right here! (I’m guessing US only).

When I was 12 years old I spent my free time metling holes in the chests of my G.I. Joe figures with a soldering iron, pouring molten lead into the cavity, and then shooting them with a BB Gun.  Emily is 12 years old and is making a feature-length zombie movie.  Have we reached zombie over-saturation?  Sure.  Is this girl more productive than I was?  Maybe.  It’s really all a matter of opinion.
