…“Lost Art of Inglorious Basterds” …  All proceeds from this program will be donated to The American Red Cross to help the victims of the Haiti Earthquake.

This creative team has assembled the following select group of accomplished artists, David Choe, Sam Flores, Estevan Oriol, Grotesk, Jeremy Fish, Patrick Martinez, Alex Pardee, Dora Drimalas, Munk One, N8 Van Dyke, Rene Alamanza, Morning Breath and Skinner Davis, to create their own poster art based off their interpretation of the Oscar Nominated film, “Inglourious Basterds” artwork.

Rene Almanza’s is my personal favourite.

Whoever put together Wikipedia’s ‘Table of Vampire Traits‘ definitely had themselves a little fun - highlights include:

Attractiveness

• Count Duckula - Alluring ^{[citation required]}
• Underworld - Kate Beckinsale

Weaknesses

• Count Chocula - Becomes soggy in milk
• Count Von Count - Obsessive urge to count anything on hand*

*Whilst he was blatantly created because of the Count/count thing I’ve only just realised that his obsession to count is an actual** vampiric trait - traditionally seeds were a suitable defence which also brings to mind the (quite excellent) X-Files episode  ‘Bad Blood‘

**Yeah, not real, whatever…

Two photo related posts, both via kottke.

1. Upside-down celebrity heads - actually a mindfuck; I’m not sure I’ll sleep tonight for fear of a celebrity-faced xenomorph crawling along my ceiling and snaking its bizarre inverted face down to feast upon my flesh.
2. World Press Photo of the Year - some powerful stuff (some of it quite mindfucking but in a completely different way) - be warned: some of the images are graphic (including pictures of wounded and dead and an execution by stoning).
