Fascinating Fanart: The Bride of Frankenstein

Image
The Bride of Frankenstein is so deeply rooted in pop culture.  She is instantly recognizable and apparently a lot of fun to draw.  Whether or not you've actually seen the 1935 movie that spawned all of this, I'm sure you can appreciate these unique and truly inspired pieces of art that are the result. Here's to the ultimate living dead girl. Bride by Danusko

Fascinating Fanart: Elvira!

Did you grow up watching Elvira's Movie Macabre  (1981)?  The "re-vamp" done in 2010 ( Movie Macabre )?  What about that horror-comedy she was in: Mistress of the Dark ?  You either know exactly who I'm talking about or you're in a generation deprived of this type of tv gimmick.  It made watching really bad horror movies fun, though.   If you love film like I do, it's one of the things you need: to see past all of the mediocre special effects and enjoy the story-even if you're just laughing the whole time.  Elvira went out of her way to make it a fun experience and those who can appreciate that love her for it.  So, enjoy these fan depictions of the ultimate gothic valley girl.

Live-Action Fairy Tales: Bluebeard

♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ Albert Einstein:  "If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales." Fairy tales, literary nonsense, tall tales...whatever you want to call them.  I'm a sucker for a wonderfully told, beautifully presented one.  Especially when they come in live-action form.  There's something... magical  when it's done right.  Some of these are taken right from the pages of a book, some are new takes on old tales.  If you get surprised by a title, stop and think about it for a second.  It'll make sense. :) Can you think of another title that fits this dark, twisted fairy tale?  Let me know in the comments section! ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦ ⥈ ♦
