February Fan Art


This month I caught the fan art bug, big time! I've dabbled in a wide range of subjects and for this post I'd like to share with you some of my recent "experiments".

After watching the late 80's cult film Brain Damage, I knew I would have to play around with the original VHS artwork. This is what spewed out of my diseased brain, a purple hazed tsunami of chaos.

I love BAND-MAID so it was only a matter of time when I would concoct some sort of tribute of them. I really went outta my comfort zone by adding the shades of blue to the image but I was happy with the overall results.

I've been doing a bit of Joshi Puroresu fan art this year but when it came to representing Ram Kaichow I wanted something very different. The reddish color schemes were simple but the mirror image look was a first for me.

My most recent fan art concoction was Takashi Miike's The Happiness of the Katakuris. Like the film I wanted to make my interpretation of the original image extremely weird and over the top. What I came up was a visually layered acid trip.

Finally, is some drawn artwork I was commissioned to do for my buddy Sean Donohue and his Tampa Bay Screams 2020 convention. I had done artwork for him the year before in the same vein so I was very excited to get this piece completed. Represented in the image above is A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge, I Spit on Your Grave, The Crazies, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers and Killing Spree.

TOP THREE OF THE WEEK


Regurgitated Rewind returns in 2020 with a trio of films I recently watched and I had to share my thoughts. Let's kick things off.......

Just watched Bliss (2019) directed by Joe Begos, one of the most unique films in the vampire genre that I have ever seen. From the dizzying camera shots and edits, to the acid trip fueled gritty atmosphere accented by blood and gore. It equals to a masterfully crafted demented drug induced cinematic experience you should definitely sink your teeth into.
(my rating 9/10)

Just watched 37 Seconds (2019) directed by Hikari and I was completely blown away. Yuma is an aspiring manga artist with cerebral palsy dealing with a coworker who is taking advantage of her and an over protective mother. This film does an amazing job taking you on her journey of self discovery as she cuts the cords to those who are keeping her down. 
(my rating 9/10)

Finally got to watch The Ancient Dogoo Girl: Special Movie Edition (2010) directed by Noboru Iguchi. Although this film is culminated from bits of the tv series including an unaired episode, it was uniquely weird and kept my attention. Leading lady Erika Yazawa is extremely kawaii and steals the show with her cuteness. I gotta track down the TV series now!
(my rating - 7/10)
