RASL GIRL

The creepy girl from Jeff Smith's Rasl freaked the lice out of me. But now I don't have lice, so I WIN. Go read Rasl now. There're only 6 issues so far and it's "early seasons of Lost" dope.

(should have gone up October 7, 2009)

Black Flame

You ain't seen nothin' til you seen your boss roll up in a board meeting to fire everybody with a Black Flame suit on. You need to be reading B.P.R.D., by the way. I'm embarrassed it took me so long.

NIGHT BREED! NIGHT BREED!

Paging Dr. Decker!

It's come to my attention that a few month's time off sent the message that we let this site die. Well, we DIDN'T! And we were wrong to leave you in the basement with the lights off for so long. So, dammit, I'm finishing these horror drawings, and the Swayze drawings, and then we're gonna blow your MINDS with other stuff. Stuff with sparkles!

The Wild Things

Say what you will about the new movie from Spike Jonze (I can't wait to see it!), but when I was in Germany in the 3rd grade, my school went to see a "Where the Wild Things Are" opera/play in a small village and the impressive, homemade costumes scared the fuck out of me. In some yearbook on some shelf somewhere, there's a picture of me all freaked out in the audience and looking for my sister in some seat dozens of rows behind me. This is a drawing of the lead monster from the book.

(Should have gone up October 4...)

Stand in the Corner

Everybody knows the Blair Witch makes you stand in the corner if she catches you. This scene haunted me out of nowhere weeks after I saw the movie and I still get spooked when I walk into dark empty rooms.

(this shoulda gone up October 3...almost caught up)

Large Marge!

I haven't met a single fucking person who's seen this movie and hasn't said to me that Large Marge freaked them out. Here's a reminder.

(this shoulda gone up October 2)

Celestial Babies

I'm sorry.

While searching for pictures of the Facehugger from Alien, I found this.
Now you have to see it, too.

Facehugger Club

What can I say? The fucking things gimme the willies. Especially the Japanese ones.

Killing When Killing Wasn't Cool

Cinnamon Jack's reflection?

When it comes to creepy comics, Al Columbia isn't only a member - he's the president. And in Fantagraphic's Zero Zero #4, Columbia produced a short story called "I Was Killing When Killing Wasn't Cool" that is so startling and nightmarish in its quiet elegance that it'll stick with you forever. I don't wanna give anything away, but that bastard I drew above was partially responsible for said startling nightmarishness. Columbia JUST released a new book, so GO FUCKING GET IT.

(I meant to post this on October 1. See? Catching up.)

I Heart Tom Atkins

This hot shit right here has appeared in so many FUCKING COOL movies that I can't understand why I haven't seen more people with tattoos of him. You know I love him. Now please go and look at this list, then rent ANYthing from it during the month of October (I recommend this and this) and fall in love, too.

Martians Bring it All Back

BOO.

It's October, and you know what that means - sketches of shit I find startling provided at least once a day all month long! I mostly kept it up last year (that's right, our little sketch blog is over a year old), but I plan on staying on top all this month. I know I'm currently 5 days behind, but that just means I'll be posting some late additions over the next few days (DOUBLE THE FUN!).

Patrick Swayze will also be making a few appearances here and there because I owe about 11 of the drawings I've started in remembrance of him, but I didn't want to push the October fun too far back, so rest assured they'll appear over time. I got me some new pens, I rented some weirdo movies, and I'm pumped. Come back daily!

And kicking off the whole celebration is my Mars Attacks friend above. Ack-Bak!

bunny demon

This painting was created in an unprovoked attempt to disturb my freshmen roommate during the first few days we knew each other. Success!



And, yeah, that might be another Dave McKean-style Joker demon in there. Can't get enough of him.

badass monster misfit

Fucking RUDY.

How does God let something so boss exist?

(for Oct. 30...only one more...)

Treehouses of Horror

Whenever it was Halloween, that meant Treehouse of Horror, and whenever it was Treehouse of Horror, that meant these guys. There was something about recalling those first few batches of Simpsons specials that just make me FEEL sitting in the living room with candy, autumn, anticipation, and light-hearted spooky entertainment. These and those Roseanne Halloween specials...of which I own the DVD collection.

(for Oct. 29)

VCR poison

It may LOOK like a video tape, but it's ACTUALLY the film that changed pop-horror.

(for Oct. 28)

Mom! MOOOOOM! He's trying to kill me!!!

When/if you become a vampire, don't go outside till you figure out how to use your flight power.

(for Oct. 27)

They're here

This poor little girl.
Sorry, but I love these films. ALL of them.

(for Oct. 26)

Twins

Two of the cutest scariest things from one of the most unsettling scenes in one of the most eerie films ever.

(Supposed to go up Oct. 25)

Spike's last stand

The last few minutes of the final battle in Gremlins is beyond gross when Spike faces sunlight. GREEN SLIME rolls outta his mouth and face sores. Buh.

(Catching up, this was supposed to have gone up Oct. 24)

I hate these guys

But my girlfriend likes them from that movie. So here.

(I'm way way behind and this was to go up October 23)
