Most people probably know the story of Snow White — the seven dwarfs; the poison apple; the prince. But I bet not many know of this version by acclaimed horror Mangaka Junji Ito.
A short version but not one to be missed.
I really need to get and watch AHS: Apocalypse before this next series starts. I absolutely adore this show, but I always seem to wait until the next one is coming out before catching up.
1984 looks freaking awesome though – just the concept alone. Can’t wait.
I just stumbled upon a classic episode of the TV series Only Fools And Horses. It’s the one where Del Boy, Rodney and Cassandra win a holiday to Spain after Del sends one of Rodney’s old school paintings into a cereal competition.
This series still stands up and I’m still laughing out loud watching it.
They truly don’t make them quite like this anymore.
During our trip to Paris a few years ago, my girlfriend and I visited a fair number of art galleries. Although I saw a lot of paintings that stood out to me, this one — A Beggar Woman by Hugues Merle — was one that grabbed me the most.
I’m not even sure what it is about it that spoke to me. I just found myself imagining stories within the world this woman lived in.
I am absolutely loving No Man’s Sky. The planets I’ve visited are absolutely stunning!
My first base is on a snowy planet I discovered. I called the planet “Ice Bonga”. The cold storms get pretty nippy on there.
After warp driving to a neighbouring star system, I found another new planet. This is probably my favourite planet yet so have decided to set up camp.
I have named this new planet “Plush Bonga” and have begun the base building.
Decided to go for a stroll, which ended up being a two-hour walk around a local nature reserve. Beautiful scenery but almost got bested by flooding water numerous times.
In celebration of my restarting Alien: Isolation later, I thought I’d share a commemorative picture of Sigourney Weaver from the film Alien.
Looking forward to getting back into Alien: Isolation on the PS4 tonight. I tried playing it about a year ago but I got about an hour or so into it and stopped playing. Dunno why I never went back to it.
However, I have been advised by a couple of mates through PSN that I need to give it another go. So I shall give it a good run this time.
I literally started writing this post at the moment I had the thought that I should be writing more. I love the idea of being a writer and for that I know that all I need to do… is write.
You see, I keep finding myself wanted to write about different topics that interest me, however, I keep thinking that I need to put those posts within a “branded” website.
For example, I actively write on another blog at https://horror-manga.com which is about Horror Manga (in case you didn’t guess). And that website is fine for me to write for too. But I found myself wanted to write about other aspects of horror. And instead of just writing on this website, I keep trying to come up with brandable website ideas in order to publish them somewhere I consider to be legit.
But this is actually keeping me from just writing about things that I want to write about.
That’s why, as soon as I had this thought, I wanted to just write about it straight away. I want to stop trying to make myself some brandable entity and just fucking write because I enjoy it.
And aint even gonna edit this one… warts an’ all.
Publish.
