Halloween Gorefest 2024

...and Roddy has been busted open.

Roderick Strong bleeding (and drooling) from Roderick Strong versus Hiroshi Tanahashi, ROH War of the Worlds - Night 2, 05/13/2015

[This era of ROH is my fave footage to use to GIF out of everything I have ever done so for prowres. It's so crisp AHHHHHH. Also Drea @shes-a-voodoo-child was right, this is a good match.]

Halloween III: Season of the Witch, 1982, dir. Tommy Lee Wallace

[hiskillingjar]

Do you recommend any movies for this Halloween?

oooh what a fun question!

i love horror of all kinds so i always have a ton of recommendations if someone is looking for horror ESPECIALLY around halloween. soooo i'll split my big ones into lists. under the cut cus it's a long post lmao

typical halloween fare for a newbie who doesn't like gore

beetlejuice. a fun older romp that's suitably spooky (not at all scary lol) and fun to watch with a non-horror fan (don't watch the sequel though)

hocus pocus. another fun campy romp that i watch every halloween. are you a gay person if you don't like hocus pocus (and i reference it whenever i do a conference paper lmao)

ghostbusters. a classic, of course, and sigourney weaver…woof woof.

monster squad. universal monsters come to life and it's up to a group of plucky horror-obsessed youngsters to stop them. cute and fun!

witches of eastwick. cher, susan sarandon, and michelle pfeiffer. mothers are mothering.

classics for versed horror fans

halloween. a classic, i prefer the orginal 1979 version but the recent requel is a great romp, and the rob zombie version is dogshit but in a fun way. it has a million sequels too, so you could watch them all month

trick r treat. another classic, a little more modern, an antholody of short scary and gory films all themed around Halloween :)

scream. one of my favourites (literally have a tattoo for it) and the ultimate classic. so easy to watch and the best time you'll have watching a horror movie

jennifer's body. a contemporary classic, megan fox plays a sexy demon and there are cute goth boys too! i like lisa frankenstein more (watch that too) but it's still an emblem of emo-ism

reanimator. i'm wearing a reanimator t-shirt right now so i have to. gay people reanimate the dead. good movie!

underrated new watches for a more versed horror fan

wolf creek 2. torture porn for when you've finished the saw franchise. i recommend 2 because it's a lot more bizarre and fun, but the first one is good too :) (cw for rape though)

the loved ones. despicable campy gorefest, a girlboss torturing a beautiful emo boy, i fucking LOVE this movie and i wish more people knew about it, it's iconic.

house of 1000 corpses. i'm not a HUUUUUGE fan of this movie, but it's got a good halloween aesthetic to it :)

ginger snaps. teenage girls turning into werewolves, this has a GREAT aesthetic to it (better than jennifer's body to me) and katherine isabelle is my woman crush wednesday forever and ever

fright night. gay vampires trying to groom kids into gay vampisism :) but it's a lot more playful then that, chris sarandon is such a hottie in this movie too

[eschergirls]

It's been 2 weeks and it's almost Halloween so it's time to announce the winners of the spooky October caption contest!

We had a lot of submissions and they were all really good, so like last month, I'll pick 3 winners (in order) and 3 honorable mentions.

Each winner will get to choose a prize if they wish (but you don't have to, you can just participate for fun too.)  The prizes are extra Steam codes that I've acquired through bundles over the years and I figure that giving them out for contests would be fun.  If you won and want a prize, please contact me. Honorable mentions can get a prize if any of the winners decline (I will contact you if that happens).  

Anyway here are the entries, as usual, grouped by the platform they were submitted on:

Fedi/Mastodon:

Dollcomics: Even with insurance, a comic book heroines back surgery always cost an arm and a leg Ordinating Aether Show: Sex (as depicted in an abstinence-only textbook)

Disqus:

Demma10: "... But it's the pelvic thrust, that will make you go insane (and lose your hips or limbs). Let's, do, the (battle) time warp, again." P J Evans: "Die, cursed arm, DIE!"

Tumblr:

atomicmosaic: perspective so bad I can't even tell whose ass is supposed to be whose atomicniire: "thank god this flying body part is covering up my massive boner" auronlu: "Internal organs!" she thought, hacking and chopping in such a frenzy of despair that her vertebrae rattled like the overtaxed joints of a 1980a snake puzzle. "If I can't have any, why should they!?" elkian: Gloria hates it when the sound stage gets double-booked, but she is scheduled to rehearse 2 hours of opera practice and no amount of zombie gorefest is going to stop her, goddammit! fyrenwater: "No, I said PUMPKIN carving, not bumpkin carving!" glidingisindeedfaster: "I’LL BE THE FIRST ONE IN THE WORM POSE CONTEST AND YOU GUYS CAN’T STOP MEEEEE" harukami: The halftime show got weirder every year. karltface: But it was just as she had feared: despite adopting ever more ridiculous fighting styles, her skill was so great, there was no threat, no challenge, no pride in any fight. The genie had been right to laugh. milkawa-and-co: "Come on ! Killing 1200 zombies with the Butt Thrust Spell and the Golden Sexy Armor is the last succes I need to platinium this game !" silveraptor: “TV Tropes calls this the ‘Interplay of Sex and Violence’ I call this ‘what happens when a comic book artist mixes up their Work and “Taxes” folders’.” swanfink: "And it's the pelvic thruuust~ That really drives you insa-a-a-ane~!" thecomicsrack: Plasticine Lass v The Evil Dead thevikingfish-nimhrodell: "Ohhhhh, I'm in the fight,  my hips don't lie, I'm stabbin' to kill this guy.  Put him in traction, after i hack him.

The runner-ups are:

In third place: @thevikingfish-nimhrodell

In second place: @harukami

Please stay tuned for a new caption contest in November!

If you won and would like a Steam code as a prize, please message me with which prize you would like.  If you came in 2nd, message me with 2 choices in order of preference...  I'll give you your top choice that hadn't been taken by the other winners. (To clarify, every winner only gets 1 prize, but winners other than the one in first place should give me their list of games in order of preference so if one is taken, I'll give you the next on the list.  It makes it easier for me to hand out the prizes.)

If the winner or the runner ups don't claim a prize, then the honorable mentions get a prize if they want one.

The Steam codes I have available as prizes are for: Aragami, Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3, Hotel Giant 2, I Am Fish, Ittle Dew 2+, My Time At Portia, Riot: Civil Unrest, Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, Survivalist, Trifox, Tunche, and Uncertain: Light At The End.

[ubasjuice]

[TERRIFIER] 2016

"On Halloween night, partygoer Tara Heyes and her sister Victoria become the targets of an enigmatic serial killer known only as Art the Clown."

[ubasjuice review]

The premise of the story is weak, there's no backstory, no motive, no specific target victim, just pure gorefest and carnage rain down on whoever crosses his path.

This slasher-splatter reminds me of the VHS days of slasher films. It just oozes 80s-90s horror. Aside from the fact that we don't know anything about "Art the clown", his character will grow on you. He's more of a mime than a clown if you ask me. He wears his emotion on his face, and eerily conveys it to his victims; even when he gets stabbed at, he mimes his emotion away, you won't here anything from him, and this is true throughout the whole film, he doesn't even have a dialogue. That's what makes him stand out from the rest kf the masked serial killer characters.

The music was great, it pulls you into the scene and makes you feel uneasy.

There weren't much jump scares actually, just the thought of an impending doom and how Art will do it. Like I said before, it's a straight up gorefest film. Normally I wouldn't be impressed as much if there weren't any backstory to the character, or even a motive, just something to base everything on, but rhis one really had me going and it was one hell of a ride. Can't wait to start watching Terrifier 2.

The reviews to this was conflicting, some say it lacked depth in the story, others were saying that they loved the mystery to the character. I agree with the latter.

Juicy 9/10

Halloween Gorefest 2024

We are coming up on that time of year when the Wrestling Arsenal celebrates the bloody, gory style of pro wrestling that was popular in the pre-AIDS 1970s and early 80s. To be a pro wrestler in those days meant to cut open your own forehead and let blood pour down your face. This was meant to shock and titillate the audience.

We kick off Halloween Gorefest #XIV with this image of a von Erich brother wearing the dreaded Crimson Mask, his blood-soaked face matching his scarlet trunks. His concerned brother Kevin tries to console and protect him. This illustrates their dedication to providing the audience with a believable and pitiable depiction of suffering, slaughter, and humiliation.

happy late halloween (life update)

went and saw Terrifier 3 with a family friend last night !! awesome movie, if anyone wants to watch it, total gorefest. Hyperextended and jammed a finger on my right hand today. currently in a splint with pain affecting my whole hand, so writing’ll be a bit slow today (and tomorrow since i’m going on a date). hope you still love me !!

[envydean]

For the prompt thing: being caught kissing (destiel :3c)

Destiel | 726 | fluffy coming out to friends 🥰 thanks for the ask!! Kinda inspired by heartstopper but Dean and co are about 18-19 years old.

(AO3)

~~~

It's not a Halloween party, even though Charlie kept saying it was. There are maybe seven of them there, eight when Cas finally rings the doorbell and shows up, settling between Charlie and Jo as the film starts. Dean tries not to feel disheartened that the space he's kept free just for his friend isn't taken up. Instead, Ash shuffles in until they're squashed between the couch and scattered on the floor cushions. A coffee table between them all and the TV is filled to the edges with popcorn, cupcakes and drinks.

Dean had a generous helping of vodka in his first drink while he anxiously hoped and waited for Cas to turn up, but since then has only stuck to soft drinks.

Halfway through their second horror movie, Ash's choice — some awful gorefest that's not scary — Dean hears Cas asking Charlie where the bathroom is.

"I'll show you," Dean chips in, possibly a little too eager but the vodka has left him buzzed.

"Thanks, Dean."

Dean is steady on his feet as he leads Cas out of the living room and up the stairs.

The bathroom door is at the end of the hallway but Dean catches Cas' hand before he reaches it, turning him against the wall.

"Hey," Dean whispers.

"Can I pee first?" Cas asks with a smirk.

Dean lets him go.

They've been dating for a couple of months, stealing kisses where they can and just enjoying spending time together. None of their friends know yet but they all assume Dean's straight anyway, he's going to tell Charlie tonight, then there's no way it'll be a secret.

Cas comes out the bathroom with a gentle smile on his face and he slides back into position against the wall, facing Dean.

"Did you wash your hands?" Dean asks.

Rolling his eyes, Cas answers that he did.

With that Dean laces his hands with Cas' and presses him up against the wall.

It's risky maybe, but they've not seen each other all week and Cas wasn't even sure if his older brother would let him come. So having him here, now, like this is perfect.

Dean captures Cas' lips with his own, biting a little at Cas' bottom lip. Cas grunt's quietly in response and deepens their kiss.

Dean untangles one hand, sliding it up Cas' arm, to his shoulder and then his neck where he tries to pull him in impossibly closer. The slow and sensual has given way to pure desperation and it's so easy to get lost in one another.

"Holy shit!"

They break apart suddenly, chests heaving from both the panic of someone finding them and the amount of effort they were putting in.

Charlie is facing them with her mouth agog in some kind of comic surprise.

"Charlie... I—"

"I knew it!"

Dean glances at Cas and then back to Charlie when he doesn't find any reaction from him. "You knew?"

"How dumb do you think I am?"

Dean's speechless but Cas takes over almost seamlessly.

"We don't think you're dumb. Dean wanted to tell you tonight."

"You've been messing around for months and you're cutesy little hesrt-eyes for each other haven't gone unnoticed."

"You're not mad?" Dean asks finally, squeezing Cas' hand.

"Why would I be mad?"

Dean thinks for a moment, but then shrugs.

"Clearly you are the dumb one, and I say that affectionately," she says. "Anyway, we're ordering pizza in time for the next movie and you were taking too long. Ash wanted to get you a shared Hawaiian."

"He what!?" Dean rages.

He still hasn't let go of Cas' hand when he drags him back down the stairs and demands the meatfeast instead.

"Alrighty, meat-man," Ash teases.

Cas chuckles.

As they all settle back down again, this time with Cas sharing one of the floor cushions with Dean, thet start the last part of the current movie.

"Me and Cas are dating, by the way." Dean makes the announcement at the next quiet part as the characters on the film sneak their way into the woods.

The rest of the group smile and congratulate them on their dating status, it's all genuine and Dean's not sure why he was so worried about it. He's glad it's out now and he and Cas can chill in each others pockets for the rest of the night.

Happy Halloween

(It's almost midnight in the 1950s, and Adrien and Marinette are walking through the forest. Adrien is wearing a letterman's jacket while Marinette wears a cute pink sweater and black blouse.)

50s!Adrien: Mari, you know I like you, right?

(50s!Marinette blushes and giggles.)

50s!Marinette: Yes...

50s!Adrien: And I hope you like me the way I like you.

50s!Marinette: Of course I do!

(50s!Adrien takes a deep breath and then hands 50s!Marinette a silver ring.)

50s!Adrien: I was wondering if you'd be my special someone.

(She squeals and kisses him on the lips.)

50s!Marinette: Oh, Adrien! You've made me the happiest girl in all of Paris!

(The model gives a sigh of relief and picks up his girlfriend, spinning her around before setting her down. He beams with joy before his face falls.)

50s!Adrien: Now that it's official... I have something to tell you.

(He takes a deep breath and looks nervous.)

50s!Adrien: Marinette, I'm not like other guys.

50s!Marinette: That's exactly why I love you.

(He shakes his head.)

50s!Adrien: No... I mean I'm different.

(She looks confused.)

50s!Marinette: What are you talking about?

(Ominous music begins to play as the clouds part and a full moon is shown. 50s!Adrien grunts in pain and falls down to his knees. 50s!Marinette gasps in concern and goes to pick him up. Her voice shakes as she tries to get him to stand.)

50s!Marinette: A-Adrien?

(He snarls and turns around to face her. His eyes are green and catlike, his hair is wilder and his teeth are sharp. His voice is distorted and hellish.)

50s!Adrien: GET AWAY FROM ME!

(The designer screams in horror as 50s!Adrien begins roaring in pain. His body begins to contort, fur appears all over his skin, he grows cat ears and whiskers, and razor sharp claws. He now looms over 50s!Marinette as a werecat. There's a bloodlust in his eyes as he chases after her. She runs for dear life but trips on a rock. He corners her, and swipes at her with his claws.)

50s!Marinette: AAADRIEENN!

(We cut to a movie theater to reveal this is a film being shown for Halloween night. Nathaniel and Marc are in the theater and have differing reactions to what's happening. We hear the sounds of flesh being sliced offscreen. Nathaniel looks disgusted and puts his hands over his eyes while Marc is surprisingly excited, munching on a bucket of popcorn.)

Nathaniel: Marc, can we get out of here?

Marc: Why? I'm enjoying this.

Nathaniel: Rainbow, you hate horror. After we watched The Babadook you had nightmares for a whole week.

(Marc rolls his eyes.)

Marc: Well this is different. Besides, I thought you loved scary movies.

Nathaniel: Yeah! Horror. Not glorified torture porn. All this guy does in the movie is turn into his fursona, kill a bunch of people in increasingly brutal ways, angst about it, and then make out with his girlfriend. At least with Saw, it doesn't pretend to be a retro throwback. Honestly, I think Nino's fell off since his old stuff, and this film proves it.

(He almost throws up as he watches the werecat eat the girl's heart.)

Nathaniel: Fuck this. You can finish watching your gorefest by yourself, babe. I'm getting out of here before I vomit.

(He gets up and makes his way out of the theatre. Marc hesitates on whether or not to follow him. He decides to be a good boyfriend and does so. Marc tries to make Nathaniel see it's not so scary as they walk out of the theater together.)

Marc: Nathaniel, it's only a movie.

Nathaniel: Marc, I told you I-

(He pauses as he notices that all of a sudden Marc is wearing red jacket with matching pants. Nathaniel has the strangest feeling that it's familiar.)

Nathaniel: Wait, how did you do that?!

Marc: Do what?

Nathaniel: You were wearing your hoodie a second ago! It should not be physically possible for you to do that!

(Marc gives him a sly smile)

Marc: Maybe it's the magic of Halloween.

Nathaniel: Marc, what is going on with you?

(A funky beat begins to play and Nathaniel can hear wolves howling as fog fills the streets.)

Nathaniel: Wait, did someone slip something in my drink? Is that why you're acting so strange? Why it feels like we're the only two people in the whole city?

(The writer doesn't answer him and begins dancing to the music. He starts to sing as well.)

Marc:

It's close to midnight

And something evil's lurking in the dark

(Nathaniel becomes even more bewildered. Marc rarely sings, even to him, and it's usually something romantic.)

Nathaniel: I feel like I should know what this song is.

(Marc ignores him and continues dramatically emoting as he sings.)

Under the moonlight

You see a sight that almost stops your heart

Nathaniel: You're not going to answer me, are you?

Marc:

You try to scream

But terror takes the sound before you make it

Nathaniel: At this point, I gotta be dreaming. There's no way this is real.

Marc:

You start to freeze

As horror looks you right between the eyes

You're paralyzed

'Cause this is thriller!

Nathaniel: Ah, Michael Jackson. Should've guessed by the red jacket. Ok, so obviously I'm dreaming and fell asleep to some Halloween Spotify playlist?

(Marc ignores him and continues singing the lyrics to the song.)

Nathaniel: Thank god. Actually, that jacket looks pretty good on you. Could you bridal carry me home? That's one of my biggest fantasies, not gonna lie.

(He realizes that Marc won't be able to speak to him.)

Nathaniel: Oh right, I guess the girlfriend in the video didn't have many lines after the song started. So it's like an NPC right? If I say something that's not part of the video after a certain point, you don't respond.

(After Marc finishes the chorus, they walk in silence to the graveyard. Pipe organ music begins to play as Juleka's voice booms inside Nathaniel's head.)

Juleka: So, Nathaniel... how do you like my spell? Do you see the true terror of Halloween?

(Nathaniel knew this was still a dream, because he'd be able to tell if Juleka was actually a witch. Still, he played along.)

Nathaniel: Oh yes, I'm sooo scared. How could I be so dumb to say that Halloween isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Juleka: Careful, Kurtzberg. I've only been using a fraction of my power.

Nathaniel: See, this is definitely my subconscious, because I'm the only one besides Marc to use that phrase unironically.

(Suddenly, zombies begin to burst out of their graves, snarling and moaning. He recognizes them as the decayed versions of his classmates, complete with tattered versions of their normal attire and accessories. They start shambling towards him and Marc.)

Nathaniel: Pfft, you remember how I survived Zombizou? And those were the fast yandere types. I can beat these goons by walking at a regular pace.

(He feels Marc's hand grab his shoulder. He has somehow become a member of the undead, though he oddly enough looks a lot prettier than the others. Marc and the other members of the Akuma, Science, Recess and Theatre Class do the Thriller dance.)

Nathaniel: Is it wrong that I still find him extremely hot?

Juleka: On so many levels.

(The zombies maul Nathaniel to pieces as Juleka cackles maniacally. Nathaniel wakes up from his dream, to see he got a text from Marc.)

Marc: U ok, babe? You were mumbling Thriller in your sleep.

(Nathaniel chuckles and texts him back.)

Nathaniel: I think I have an idea for our next issue.

Happy Halloween everybody! I had the idea this morning and this is what I came up with. Hope you all enjoyed it! Leave a comment, reblog, like or ask for future stuff. @artzychic27 @msweebyness

[adrianicsea]

hi, Adrian! 8, 14 and 19 for the Saw ask game :>

HI!!! thank you so much for the ask 😄

8. how were you introduced to the series— i’d always heard about it growing up, since they were coming out around the same time i was a kid, but i always gave them a pass bc of their reputation of being mindless gross-out gorefests. my boyfriend was a HUGE saw fan as the movies were originally coming out, and on halloween a few years back, he showed me the first one!! and it instantly rewrote my brain chemistry, for better or for worse.

14. favorite trap— the bathroom trap kind of feels like a given, but for a smaller, shorter-form trap… the reverse bear trap is a classic, of course, but i also really like the design and macabre beauty of the angel trap, as tough as that sequence is to watch.

19. how does it feel to know that lawrence never came back for adam— it hurts me very deeply but also as a tragedy enjoyer we love to see it 🥲👍🏻 i do wish we could have gotten to see some more of lawrence’s thought process and feelings about adam in the later movies, but i also kind of like how the ambiguity of canon leaves SO much room to explore and play with the character!!! and also i would like to say that adam’s death is SO thematically key to the whole series that i would never ever want it to be retconned or undone. i really truly genuinely don’t understand people who SINCERELY want adam to be alive with each new sequel that’s released— if that ever happened, i feel that saw as a series would completely lose its narrative and thematic integrity, and i personally would have trouble ever taking it seriously again.

[mytho-nerd]

Here is what horror movie I think the greek gods would like because I love horror movies 🫶🏻

Hermes - I really feel like he’s a Scream fan. Mostly because him and Matthew Lillard give off the same vibes in my mind?? Idk how to explain it they’re very different but also very similar. But also American Werewolf In London or really any comedy/horror movie.

Athena - midsommar, the shining, and hereditary. I feel like she likes the horror movies that are highly praised for their story, metaphors, acting, etc. I mean this in the nicest way possible but she is definitely a horror snob. She also would totally like Silence Of The Lambs because she relates to Clarice (also it’s just really well done.) She might also like American psycho.

Artemis - Silence Of The Lambs, she likes Clarice. She’d like Halloween too I think. Just something about it.

Aphrodite - Friday the 13th because she likes the summer camp horror. Also, Last Night At Soho for the lighting and outfits. Jennifer’s body for sure. Bodies, bodies, bodies as well. Just really any movie with beautiful cinematography or one that’s somewhat clever. I also see her as a classic horror fan or just liking anything that’s considered “camp”

Apollo - The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Sweeny Todd (they count I swear.) he’s a musical girlie. Other than that I don’t think he’d watch horror movies all that much.

Ares - any “good for her” horror movie. Also maybe supernatural horror like Nope and Paranormal activity? Something that’s still a horror movie while also being somewhat detached from reality. I don’t see him liking gore solely because he’s already experienced a lot of gore, why would he want to watch it. Although the opposite could be argued.

Dionysus - American psycho, It Follows, The Shining, any movie that has an ambiguous ending or that the events of the movie aren’t super clear.

Eris - any buck wild horror movie that makes you say “what did I just watch” afterwards. Also, of all people she would enjoy gorefest. Maybe Terrifier? Skinnamarink (is that how it’s spelt?)

Halloween Gorefest 2024

If you go to the trouble of constructing a steel cage, then somebody better bleed before it's over.

[405blazeitt]

idk if i'm missing something but i didn't like the movie se7en all that much when i watched it, at least not as much as i expected to. people had told me that it was brutal and a hard watch, but on that front, it wasn't much worse than a lot of movies that came before it, and it's been far surpassed since. it was well-directed and visually nice, but the story and writing didn't live up to the hype.

then i watched saw (2004) and it felt like what i was told se7en was, just on a much (MUCH) lower budget. and i liked it a lot more. which seems wrong given that se7en is widely regarded as a finely crafted work of art while the saw movies are treated as an over-the-top halloween fun popcorn gorefest.
