Corpse Monger

Illbleed?!

Picked up the can't-miss double feature of WNUF HALLOWEEN SPECIAL and OUT THERE HALLOWEEN MEGA TAPE (courtesy of Walmart, amazingly enough!), and damn...just top tier shit (as if I had to convince any of you). A massive shout out to @chrislamartina.bsky.social for giving us this immortal treat!

Just PURE 'shock and awe' depravity that hasn't since been approached, let alone topped...

I've been archiving my trading card collection, and in particular my MARS ATTACKS collection...and I am reminded how highkey wild MA was in the 90s...let's jut say that the sick, sardonic, E.C.-comics-on-steroids vibe MA has always trafficked in played VERY well with the berserk, "EXTREME!" 1990s...

Took in a little COVEN tonight at the Strange and Found mini-fest up in ol' Milwaukee. Pictured here in front of the legendary Times theater, cousin Darryn, his woman Pam, and my degenerate ass over there on the right. We are a photogenic lot!

Thoroughly enjoying my "I literally couldn't give less of a shit regarding your opinion" arc. You really hate this thing I love? neat, don't give a shit. You think I'm stupid for liking it? Neat, don't give a shit. You really love this thing I hate? Neat, don't give a fuck. Neither should you. Easy!

YouTube video by Animal Monday Here's Johnny

A POWERFUL (and brutally short) documentary about the final days of John Hicklenton, one of the most incredible artists I have, or will ever witness. Stricken with MS, Johnny ended his own life humanely, professionally, in 2010. I had always hoped to work with him.

I love America like Demián Rugna loves children

Next on the docket- BLACK PHONE! Finally caught up with this one (because the sequel looks fuckin' awesome), and while I liked it a GREAT deal...I didn't quite love it as I'd hoped. Just TOO many willfully ignored options for escape/self defense for me to turn a blind eye to. Still, Hawke was GREAT.

Next on the docket- V/H/S/HALLOWEEN! The 8th(!) entry in the long running series is "one of the good ones"...but I'm taking this moment to gush solely over its concluding entry, "HOME HAUNT". An instant, 5 star masterpiece, up there with the likes of Safe Haven, Ratmaa, and Stork. BELIEVE THE HYPE!

Next up on the docket- SILENT HILL f. Still playing through it, but so far, terrific stuff. It's both very much Silent Hill, and very much not...sort of like how The Room was, and wasn't a Silent Hill game. SHf is honestly really more of a SIREN game...but that's an apt hallway for SH to take. Wink.

It is indeed a steelbook, and it looks sharp as hell in person!

*TDKR, as in The Dark Knight Returns. Bah, you knew what I meant.

Next up on the docket- ABSOLUTE BATMAN! It took me a little while to get into it, but once I did...holy shit. AB posits the question "what if Joker were Patrick Bateman as CEO of the Umbrella Corporation", and it's as horrifying as you might imagine. This is a Gotham that makes TDR seem cheerful.

So apparently, the censors objected to EVERY bit of head trauma on display. So aside from two pronounced instances- one involving the Uncle Rege ghoul, and a Dawn-level head explosion- it's all trims that excluded virtually every exit wound in the film. It adds up, though...and the B&W intro works.

It's been a while, so let's get up to speed. First on the docket- NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD '90! Savini's remake of Romero's untouchable text has finally reached classic status in its own right, and the semi-restored 35th anniversary 4K thereof is ABSOLUTELY essential...if you can get it. Good luck!

Fright Flicks. That is all.

Even before I became a parent(?!) myself, it always struck me as a massive character flag when people would just...scorn the existence of children. Like A) you were one, and I assure you, JUST as bad as whatever one you're complaining about, and B) you still f'ckin' act like that...

Yeah, I gotta agree. And I mean to be fair, I don't even hate Snyder's work, I think he's an uneven, occasionally inspired visual storyteller. But His vision for the, well, "Snyderverse" just didn't gel. Some stuff worked, a lot didn't, the end. It should be SO easy to get over, and yet...well...

And these goons are STILL insisting that the movie is somehow a bomb, and that Gunn has fallen on his face, etc, etc, etc...just a sad lot of wankers. The new Supes' was TERRIFIC, and doin' just fine!

That's pretty much the credo of our current dystopia.

An ashen, unholy phantasm leers out from an inky void

A chiseled, beautiful young lad looks on with carefully curated ennui, in a stylish shirt that might have been seen as edgy a good 60 or so years ago, but is now agonizingly passe

How horror authors really look vs how they be tryin' to look in the back of their books

Your daily dose of MARS ATTACKS, care of the legendary Gary Gerani, and the iconic Earl Norem.

Ack Ack, motherfuckers!

I found a Jack-O-lantern Krazy Straw juice cup whilst out and about. The fuck did YOU do with your day?!

An oldschool, hand drawn comic book logo which reads "ROT REALM", in putrid, neon colors, alongside a ghastly, grinning, rotting head awash in green goo squirting/dripping everywhere

A vile, swollen, flesh-tangled semi-humanoid snarls at us from within a comic panel, alongside the "ROT REALM" logo

Ahoy, garbage gang! As one or two of you may have noticed, I pretty much stepped away entirely for MONTHS, to...well, handle IRL shit basically. Been that kinda year. But I've returned! Yay?! Here's a couple of neat things I drew. They may be a preview of- well, you'll see. Eventually. Maybe. Enjoy!

I had a friend deliver in Gaza deliver Taqwa formula a little while ago- but it is now available in markets and I would like her to get some so this sweet baby can eat. If you want to know Taqwa’s whole story you should click on her link but it will break your heart
