TV: The Walking Dead

AMC has a fantastic new show that premiered on Halloween this year called The Walking Dead, based off a comic book series by the same name. The first night the show had 8 million viewers and is on for another season. Whooo! Thank God, because this show, after only seeing 3 episodes, is amazing! Not only is it suspenseful and intense (I almost couldn't take it at some points), it's realistic and graphic, the zombies look spectacular, and the plot line is engaging.

Not only that, the main character, Rick, played by Andrew Lincoln, is really fuckin sexy. He wakes up in a hospital after being shot and in a coma for who knows how long. The hospital had been overrun, and Rick starts finding dead people everywhere, an empty city, and finds out that he's up against Walkers, otherwise known as zombies.


I was also in Hot Topic the other day and spotted some cool Walking Dead shirts I was really excited for, I'll have to get mine soon perhaps...So I highly recommend it, since we're also going through a zombie craze currently, and hope you enjoy it. :)

Zombie Talkin'

Talking like a zombie is a lot more complicated than you think, so if you want to fine tune your zombie language skills, I recommend, the Zombie Lexicon guides. From nouns to propositions, and other random stuff, you'll be covered for that zombie walk later tonight.

Pumpkin Artist: Ray Villafane

First off, I must say what an amazing last name...Villafane! Sounds so devious, and eeeevil mwahahaha. This sculptor, Ray Villafane, started to carve pumpkins for his art students, and I suppose he finally realized he was really good because then it turned into something more than just a hobby. I've seen some really good pumpkin carvings before, but I think he has got some pretty ridiculously detailed insane ones. Yay for pumpkin sculptures, especially the ones that look like they're gonna eat you, I like those the best because they're very unnerving and ones you probably don't really want in your house...To see Ray's process and the tools he uses, click here. I should try this intense carving sometime, pumpkins are such a fleshy medium...
