Top Ten Most Depressing Horror Books of All Time
Horror stories have been written for centuries. Many times they were based on folklore or handed down tales. Horror can be terrifying, suspenseful, shocking or gruesome. No matter the premise of the story, horror is designed to frighten, invoke fear and make the unimaginable a possibility; in other words to elicit an emotion. Along with the fear, horror can often be sad, pushing limits and boundaries with no intention of returning or giving us a happy ending. It is these stories that I will be… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — “Alice in Zombieland”
This week’s Face Off gave us a delightful blend of fantasy and horror with “Alice in Zombieland.” Smelly cat, redneck rabbit and Tom Petty made appearances, along with Laila Ali and Paul W.S. Anderson. Then the judges ruined the whole thing by blowing the call at the end. Are these the replacement judges? The foundation challenge (which went AWOL last week) was a cool 90-minute take on boxing trauma, judged by Laila Ali. The judging seemed to favor subtlety over the ridiculous gore effects some… Read More »

Jawbone Sunglasses
Fashion and death combine with jewelry designer, Emma Montague’s unique jawbone sunglasses. Montague, of the Goldsmithing, Silversmithing, Metalwork & Jewellery department, realized the potential of the design when she noticed the angle of a deer’s jawbone in relation to the shape of her sunglasses. With gears turning, she came up with the resulting design of removing parts of the temples (arms) of the sunglasses and replacing them with extricated pieces of jawbone. The angles matched, and the design was both beautiful and macabre. The collection… Read More »
The Horrors of Gen Con (PICS)
Gen Con, the biggest gaming convention in North America, took place in Indianapolis week before last. I was there on the front lines, sorting through all the wizards and elves to find the finest in horror gaming and cosplay. There were a lot of zombies. Horror gaming is mostly divided between zombies and Cthulhu. Cthulhu was everywhere a few years ago, but zombies have saturated pop culture lately. Twilight Creations are certainly not bandwagon riders – their Zombies!!! franchise has been around for ages, using… Read More »

I only said that last part so you can drive yourself crazy trying to prove that I used the word “ironic” incorrectly. Enjoy your ten-thousand spoons. Meeting at a Chinese temple to see a traditional dragon dance, the contestants were divided into teams of two and sent off… Read More »
