Exclusive Interview with Face Off Season Three Winner Nicole Chilelli

California-based make up artist and designer Nicole Chilelli is fresh off her victorious run on season three of SyFy’s Face Off. Nicole is ready to hit the ground running, but she took time for this exclusive Gothic.net interview. Ed Grabianowski for Gothic.net: What are your favorite movies from a creature design/make up perspective? What movies inspired you to get into make up? Nicole Chilelli: I’d have to say Predator has to be my favorite creature design. It’s just so iconic and really brings a feeling… Read More »

Walking Dead Episode 304 — Killer Within

This week’s Walking Dead might have been the grimmest yet. I think I just saw the most horrible thing I’ve ever seen on TV. The kicker is, I’m not even sure which of the horrible things I saw this week was the most horrible. The episode is titled “Killer Within,” which seems to refer to the mystery person we see at the start, luring some walkers with a deer carcass, then breaking the chain on the prison gate. Mystery person’s walking seems labored, but there… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — Live Finale

On the Halloween night live finale of Face Off season three, the grand prize winner was announced: Nicole Chilelli. Her season played out with a nearly perfect Hollywood three-act structure, from the unfair elimination, unexpected chance at salvation, and ultimate rise to victory. The live finale was a lot of fun, with all the contestants and judges (except Ve, who’s working on the Hunger Games sequel), and the luminous McKenzie Westmore as master of ceremonies. We were treated to retrospectives on the three finalists, checked… Read More »

American Horror Story: Asylum Episode Three

American Horror Story Season 2-Episode 3 Noreaster

In this weeks installment, “Nor’easter”, there is a storm coming. Spectacular use of foreshadowing filled this episode. The beginning was reminiscent of episode two in the first season, “Home Invasion”, where three people break into the home and reenact a brutal murder that happened in the house. This time it was Teresa and Leo dealing with Bloody Face, and just when you think they might make it out, they run into multiple Bloody Faces. It looks like it’s the end of the line for the… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — Immortal Enemies

A demon roams loose on Earth, his only goal to spread agony and destruction to all that he touches. What hope is there?

Walking Dead Episode 303

The Walking Dead Episode 303

In “Walk with Me,” Walking Dead served up a tasty slice of the past, then unveiled a bizarrely bucolic future and the best aquarium ever. Who is the Governor? What’s Michonne’s relationship with her zombie pets? What do you get for the man who has everything (except his own right hand)? The episode’s “previously on” reel featured a recap of season one events involving Merle, Daryl’s brother who was left on a roof in Atlanta handcuffed to a pipe, forcing him to cut his own… Read More »

American Horror Story — Asylum Episode Two

american horror story asylem

In what turned out to be one of my most favorite episodes of American Horror Story yet, Tricks and Treats threw down the gauntlet. The episode started with our dear, bloody newlyweds, Leo and Teresa, attempting to hide from Bloody Face. When Teresa cannot pull Leo into a room with her, Bloody Face ends up stabbing Leo multiple times as Teresa is stuck in a cell. It looks like we’ll already be saying goodbye to Mr. Lavine. It was fun while it lasted, dancing boy.… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — Scene of the Crime

The final four perform reverse crime scene forensics, Nicole takes over quote of the week, we get to see Laura’s wedding photos, and the entire episode in one big promo for Grimm. It’s Face Off! This week’s challenge begins with a great concept – the contestants visit murder scenes out in the woods, where they have half an hour to take photographs and collect samples. Then they have to decide what kind of creature committed the murder, and go back to the lab and design… Read More »

Walking Dead Episode 302

It turns out that one of the most marketable skills in the zombie apocalypse is just being good at killing zombies. Rick gets decisive, Carl mans up, Carol plays zombie doctor, and everyone mourns Hershel’s leg. Things pick up right where they left off last week, with the zombie kill crew fighting to stem Hershel’s bleeding and a small band of prisoners looking on in awe. Even though one of them has a gun, the survivors pretty much ignore them, get a cart, wrap the… Read More »

American Horror Story: Asylum Episode One

We start this season of American Horror Story off with, dare I say, more shocks and intensity than characterized season one. Fans were not disappointed. A newlywed couple, is exploring the Briarcliff asylum, a tuberculosis hospital turned Catholic ran sanitarium for the criminally insane, in its present day decaying condition. The couple, Leo and Teresa, played by Adam Levine and Jenna Dewan respectively, get their kicks by having sex in haunted locations. This time they are interrupted by a noise and stop to investigate. In… Read More »
