Nobody trusts anybody now… and we’re all very tired.

Our Humble Bundle was doing so well it was extended a week but today is the last day. As I post it ends in 5 hours. $10k has been raised for the World Kitchen. Grab any of my books for a great price now while you can because tomorrow the price will be $1M each. www.humblebundle.com/books/best-h...

I'd really like to stop waking up at 4AM but I've been getting some good sketching time in while it's quiet. This morning it was all flipping through found photo archives on Flickr.

I am still absolutely flabbergasted by Hailee Steinfeld's performance in True Grit. 14 years old and going scene for scene, shot for shot with Bridges and Damon. She's punching so far above her weight she could sucker punch a silverback and make him think twice about swinging back.

It's Peter Cushing's birthday, so here's one I did a few years back; not bad for one of my earlier oils. Happy birthday, Peter!

Woke up at 4 am. Couldn't get back to sleep. Drew Vincent Price. Still sleepy but at least I got something out of it.

Have some new stuff going up this week so I wanted to share a few pieces I've written recently as I'm terrible at promoting my work. 1st up, a look at William Petersen & cinematic masculinity in the '80s: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/william-pete... Open to both free/paid subs!

Is it time to watch Garth Marenghi's Darkplace again? Yes. Yes it is.

A little sketch of Orson Welles

Pressing play on In Search of Darkness 90-94. This is the time period when beautiful wife and I were still young, dumb, and full of disposable income, so we saw a LOT of stuff in the theatre and rented CONSTANTLY, so this should be a real trip down memory lane.

After all the packing we're doing, I'm more and more convinced that our house is just a book and art supply warehouse that we've managed to jam a bed into.

A little Nick Cave sketch

I was reminded earlier of the great old Animation Celebration collections; these were little independent animation shorts that were packaged together and shown as a movie in select theatres, late 80s/early 90s. Beautiful wife and I watched this one on campus when we were in college. 1/2

Mads Mikkelsen Charcoal pencil #drawing #art

In progress. Trying to get some of that 70s Italian horror movie poster grunge into my gouache.

I got about halfway through "This Is Not A Test" on Shudder before I tapped out. It sure tries hard, I'll give it that. But you're not going to be surprised by anything that happens; every plot point is telegraphed waaay before it shows up on screen, and there's only so much of that I can take.

This could be 'chocolate and peanut butter' good or 'anchovies and peppermint candy' bad. Flip a coin, I guess? deadline.com/2026/05/nico...

We were packing up DVD's yesterday but I kept this one out to rewatch. Anybody asks me "what's your favorite comic book movie?" and American Splendor is the answer, hands down, no question, full stop. Harvey Pekar was a goddamn national treasure.

There's WAY TOO MANY people in this 'What’s one actor that instantly tells you that the movies gonna be bad?' Reddit thread who need to take Nic Cage's name out of their goddamn mouths.

A little sketch of Frank-N-Furter

Beautiful wife and I are packing and I may now be *just a little high* off the Sharpie fumes from labelling boxes.

It's baby bun time of year I guess! I saw this little guy in our garden the other morning.

Gouache in progress. Probably take one more pass at it tomorrow, maybe adjust that forehead w/ my airbrush.

Watched the first ep of Devil in Silver last night, and, honestly? Dan Stevens should be in all the things.

i’m purging so there’s 50% off my misfits collection 🫶

The Pope of Trash

A quick little Tyrion in gouache.

New song!! "Frank-En-Stein," a tribute song to a horror legend! This turned out to be one of my fave songs and videos I've done, and features what may be my funniest line ever! Check it out and let me know what you think! @rubytombsday.bsky.social @bloody-disgusting.com youtu.be/VVSF45OOtXI?...

Teeth and Tattoos- 2022

This Is Francine in Lake Como. Across from her is Katchoo nude. Watch me draw and ink Katchoo here: youtu.be/sdOYFF5HuCw?...

Watched the first episode of Widow's Bay tonight. It is delightful!

TUESDAY THING @thehorrormaster.bsky.social

Beautiful wife and I do not have green thumbs but we've managed to keep this cactus alive for nearly 30 years by leaving it the fuck alone. It rewards us with these:

I do gotta say though, complaining that Oddity didn't have more action and awesome kills is a bit like eating a cheeseburger and complaining it didn't have more floral notes or a minty aftertaste. It ain't that kinda movie. #TheLastDriveIn

That was a great time! Walpurgisnacht will never be the same after this. 😭 See y'all this summer! I fucking love you guys. #TheLastDriveIn

Oh man. 😭 #TheLastDriveIn

Thanks to Elijah Wood in the credits there! He's been a good friend to horror. #TheLastDriveIn

Mmm that ending is 🤌 Tres magnifique! Darcy getting revenge from beyond the grave is the cherry on top. #TheLastDriveIn

Imagine being the people who own this house, watching this movie at opening night and then having to come home and sleep there. #TheLastDriveIn

This flick is a jump scare masterclass. #TheLastDriveIn

This is one of those movies that's so fucking good it's hard to skeet about it while I'm watching! #TheLastDriveIn

4 stars is very well deserved for this one. #TheLastDriveIn

Oddity is pretty great! If you haven't seen Caveat I think it's *even better*. #TheLastDriveIn

We had Papyrus for the opening credits and now the Prisoner font for the closing. #TheLastDriveIn

Rawhead's no match for the Venus of Villendorf's massive mama milkers. #TheLastDriveIn

I would not look inside that thing. #TheLastDriveIn

"I'd light your vestments on fire but they're really, disturbingly wet." #TheLastDriveIn

"What's he saying?" "Something about... mawage?" #TheLastDriveIn

God bless the full body burn stunt gag crew! #TheLastDriveIn
