About two months ago a copy of Royal Flush magazine surfaced at the office, a super slick publication devoted to “music, underground comics, stupid action films, low-brow art, dick jokes and other socially uplifting subject matter”. I was blown away by the velvety cover, stunning layouts and the amount of top notch illustrators featured within [...]

I stumbled across this strange tidbit concerning a fashion spread in the French Vogue this morning. I could probably write a witty commentary about it, but the fine folks at jezebel.com already have that covered. Besides, this just makes my brain hurt. Visit: http://www.jezebel.com/gossip/maghag/french-vogue-devil-worship-is-the-new-black-302809.php, and enjoy!

The stain was black and brown and had spread out in a wavy oval. The stench was well past unbearable. It was so vile, in fact, I half expected an evil long-haired ghost woman to rise up from it at any second, seeking supernatural vengeance from beyond the grave. And it was on my hide-a-bed. [...]

I’ve been working on a lot of posters lately for upcoming gigs on and around Halloween. The first is for The Toronto Psychobilly Wrecking Crew show with The Gutter Demons on November 2nd. Once they’re done, I’ll post the art for The Creepshow/Matadors Horrorbilly Weekender on Friday and Saturday night, October 26-27 and one I’m [...]

Here’s a video of Fred Dekker, actor Steve Marshall, and Micheal Felsher put together by the lovely Nicole Williams. The clip is about seven minutes long. We wish we could have filmed more of it but keep in mind, Nicole was using her Cannon S3 IS. The footage is a bit blurry due to the [...]

See that DVD above for Night of the Creeps? Well, it ain’t available in North America. Luckily, though, if you live in the Toronto area, you can come see the 1986 zombie splatter-comedy classic tonight (Thursday), 9:30pm, at the Bloor, because we’ve got both a print of it, and director Fred Dekker (also the man [...]

Boingboing posted this link to some photos from this past weekend’s Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant. Mothman costumes! Mothman pancakes!! “Elect Mothman” T-shirts!!! Despite the creepy, vaguely vaginal rubber Mothman mask, it looks like a blast. Somebody please send me an Elect Mothman T-shirt! And for all you Mothman doubters out there, as the trippy [...]

Boingboing has a post reminding us that it’s a week until the Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Of all the crypto-zoo creatures, the Mothman is definitely one of the stranger critters out there (or not out there…). I love the statue the town erected; it looks like a giant action figure, complete with [...]

I’m guessing this actually an art project, but regardless, it’s, ahem, deliciously twisted… Japan has just invented another way of eating, where a “bodyâ€Â is made from food and placed on an operating table, much as though in a hospital. You can operate anyway and anywhere you want by cutting open the body and eating [...]

A few months ago Monster Creature Feature contacted me to do an interview on their cable access show, which airs weekly on RTN channel 10 out of Raleigh, NC on Friday nights. I checked out their website, watched some episodes and thought it was a fun, campy show that reminded me of the one’s I [...]

Working at Rue Morgue, I’m often asked what scares me, or “What’s the scariest thing you’ve seen lately.” Well, hands down the scariest thing I’ve read in a long time is this report on just one of the many ways we’re slowly killing ourselves: with plastic. The scariest thing I’ve seen in a long time, [...]
