Much delayed update

Hey, sorry for the delay everyone. Life has been a little too hectic for me lately. But I do have some art updates for you all. I am quitting the 30 day art challenge. I made it to day 11, but I just don't have the time.
I have 2 secret projects in the works right now, and they take #1 priority. It's something cool, and I know you guys will like it when all is revealed. So please keep listening to the Terror Troop and other podcasts on Horror Palace for updates. All will be revealed soon!

Day 7: Draw a monster

Day 8: Draw your favorite movie

From our latest episode, you might already know. But Jaws is my favorite movie of all time tied with The Ring. I HAD to draw the classic scene with Quint and the chalkboard.

Day 11: Redraw Something

I drew this my freshman year of college in 2005. It's my true feelings toward dolls. And what I think the damn things might do...

And now my re-do I finished yesterday. I would like to hope I've improved. What do you think?

So thank you for sticking with me here. I hate to quit something not even half way through, but like I said other projects just need to be in the foreground for now. Hope you all enjoy!

Theatre Bizarre (2012)

I've got to say this upfront, this movie is AMAZING!

The showings are a bit limited, but it is well worth seeking it out. The main website has a list of cities and dates where it is available. http://www.w2media.com/theatrebizarre/


Please, PLEASE; if you are able, go see it. You will NOT be disappointed. Great actors, great directors including Tom Savini. And get this, NOT CGI! It's all done in practical effects. Now that's just the cherry on top of a perfect sundae!

10/10 in my book. I'll post a more in-depth review later on. I just really wanted to get the word out there about it. Because the last showing in Colorado is Feb 4th. HAD to let you guys know about this gem!

Terror Troop Episode 12

Hello guys!

As promised on the latest episode, I wanted to show you all the fun doodles I draw during really BAD movies. So enjoy!

The Chupacabra is making the same facial expression I did while watching the movie.

My favorite is the gentlemen Bigfoot.

Meadowoods (2010) Review

Now as you all know, I've been on a indie streak lately. There are some real jems in the smaller productions that Hollywood can only dream to have again. But just like the big guys, indie's can have their share of duds.

Meadowoods follows three college kids, (Brent, Ryan and Jennifer) who are longing for something exciting in their lives. So the three start planning a murder. Each have their own reasons to want this, and the movie is a video diary/log of the events.

Premise sounds interesting enough, but execution had something to be desired. There are only two handheld camera's used throughout the entire film, which makes sense for the premise. But anyone who hates the 'shaky cam' is not going to enjoy it. There is also a nearly 15 minute long scene of just black. I kid you not. The movie finally started gaining speed, and then darkness. It's a bad idea for any movie to do that for a long period of time.

The acting was okay by some of the characters. I found myself really enjoying Ryan. He was an under-dog who was bullied by the other two to go along with the murder, a bit of a pussy, but enjoyable. Jennifer's character is very bland. A piece of cardboard would have more personality. Ila Schactler, who plays their victim Kayla, was a much better actress and written character. I wish the two roles where reversed. And the way they go about talking in public about their plans is ridiculous. Like you just say the word 'bomb' in an airport and you're asking to get a free colonoscopy. Let alone out in a cafe or video store saying, 'how are we going to kill Kayla Pruett?' Using full names like that is just dumb!

One scene I did enjoy, was the three are in a video store trying to get idea's for how to kill their victim. And guess which isle they were in? YUP! Horror! Thought it was kinda funny.

The movie had a lot of promise, neat concept but for what you get out of 88 minutes is a let down. I would of loved to see them tie Kayla to a chair in a shed somewhere and slowly cut chunks off of her for weeks, or something of that manner. What you get is a 'Buried' wanna-be.

For anyone into psychology, this would be a good movie to watch and write a paper about for school. But for fun, I would pass.

3/10

Happy New Year!

Hey! Start to the new year, and I'm already 6 days late...eh. Going back to work after a nice break was tough. But here is my first (and only drawing at this point) of 2012!

It just doesn't seem like a new year without the new year slug!

Take Care everyone and 'til next time!
