Deterrence

The autumn air is cold and still as the scent of decay slowly permeates the barren land. Once free to circle the sky, death's grip now traps the crow in suspended flight. Foreboding, a warning at the edge of the dying fields. -crs

Thunder's Hat

Here is someone's chance at owning a prop from the movie Big Trouble in Little China, another one of my favorites by John Carpenter. This hat was worn by Thunder, one of the Three Storms in the movie. I've always been fond of the Three Storms characters. I think it would be fun to try and pull off any one of their costumes. Found this interesting item on the Wing Kong Exchange and is for sale here.

We Can Bring Him Back to Life

Got to take a break after a hectic week and watched my favorite Stuart Gordon film, Re-animator. This is one of those cult classics with loads of gore, horror and bits of humor.



















"It's really quite simple. All life is a chemical and physical process, correct? It stands to reason, then, that if one could find extremely fresh specimens and re-charge that chemical process, BANG, we'd have re-animation." Dr. Herbert West

Stick People

Sculpture by Camille Allam. I can only imagine the time that went into making these.
