Trollface Pumpkin Is Trolling

Best pumpkin ever, and it was on our neighbours front lawn! They seemed equally impressed I recognized Trollface.

This was my contribution to the art of Jack-o-lantern carving. Not so great, but the light made for some cool, fiery eyes.

And this, for those who don't know, is me as a fatter, whiter DJ Lance Rock from Yo Gabba Gabba.

Heeere's Johnny!

Heeere's Johnny

The Shining is my all-time creepiest movie. More than Psycho it has made me afraid of shower curtains. To this day I leave them open in any bathroom I'm in. It is Stanley Kubrick and Jack Nicholson at their best.

I won't be watching it tonight. Thanks to my pal Rachel Sklar at Mediate for pulling together all the clips and Shining mashups :) but boo for spreading it over 15 pages :(

Happy Halloween everyone!

Friday The 13th: Jason's Closet

Just in time for Halloween comes the Jason hoodie from designer Marc Ecko, which is stylish enough to use on your next convenience store robbery, once you're done terrorizing your neighbourhood as a masked lunatic, of course.

Channel the terror of Crystal Lake in this "Jason" hoodie from the Friday the 13th series by Marc Ecko.

If that's not quite psychotic enough for you, there are also version of The Joker, Jigsaw, and somewhat incongruously, Gene Simmons.

THIS Is How The World Ends

At least we'll go out in a stunning fashion. Speaking of which, Threadless is selling their Halloween t-shirts (like the one above by Travis Pitts) for a mere $10, but only until tomorrow at 10 am CT, so you'll have to hurry. Gotta look your best for the UFO, zombie, vampire, dinosaur apocalypse.

The ABCs of Horror

An Alphabet of Horror for your pre-Halloween festivities. Jared von Hindman of Head Injury Theater has put together a ABC of horror movie monsters and ghouls (or at least he did a couple of years ago. I just got around to it via a link from Coolios, which is kindly linking to my Last Supper smorgasbord. Yay, interweb!) Anyway, Hindman's site sucked me in for quite awhile, just like current fave Topless Robot, which together make me wonder why I bother.

And seeing as I an name dropping sites, I picked the letter C above for Matt of Culture Kills who doesn't think clowns are scary, but has more than enough film-related fears to last a lifetime.

It's the Celebrity Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

My pumpkins have always been in the classic vein - triangular eyes and gappy, square-toothed grins. But over the past few years there has been a dramatic leap forward in pumpkin design. We have the technology, we can carve him.

Above is one of my favourites - someone's clever tribute to the classic Calvin & Hobbes snowmen. Below are some of the better pop culture pumpkins. Get more from Zombie Pumpkins, Extreme Pumpkin, PumpkinGlow and Pumpkingutter.
