If you’re able to get to the Packer Schopf Gallery in Chicago this Sunday, you can go hang out with Clive Barker and buy some of his art. You can click the thumbnails on the gallery’s web page to see the asking prices. It’s sort of interesting to see what the pieces are going for. I’ve always been a big fan of Barker’s writing, but I’m not as familiar with his visual artwork.

This one below is called “Untitled (156)” and it’s $500.00. I think we should all chip in and buy it for Deejay (click thumbnail for full image) …

Check out this list of 50 Awesome Polish Film Posters. Some of them are pretty stunning. Do we get any cool movie posters here in the U.S. anymore? Everything is just some bland photograph of the star.

Good job, Josh!

Wow, these horror-oriented photos by Joshua Hoffine are stunning. He sets up the scenes almost like a movie, with “actors” getting into monster makeup and minimal Photoshopping after the fact. I would caution you against looking at these right before bedtime because they may just give you a nightmare!

Cheers, Josh, this is some killer work. I would totally buy a print and hang it on my wall… but your stuff is too scary, I couldn’t bear to have it in my house! (that’s a compliment, of sorts)

I mentioned it briefly on Splattercast #75; we’re having a bit of a nerd relapse over here. Mat, Brady, Spooky & I played a few rounds of Magic: The Gathering the other night. It had been literally 6 or 7 years since I last played MTG, but it’s like riding a bicycle: you never really forget how.

There’s a new set called Shadowmoor coming out next week and it looks like it’s going to have some killer artwork. I browsed through this visual spoiler list and picked out a few that I liked (see above). I don’t suppose I can call it a “horror” card set but it’s at least got some gnarly monsters and junk. I’ll probably grab a couple preconstructed theme decks when they hit the stores.

Any other MTG players out there? Don’t be ashamed - we’re nerds, too! Spooky McPhee’s even got us dipping our toes into the World of Warcraft trading card game. Where’s my pocket protector?
