Resident Evil Theme Park Attraction Opens In Japan

The wild, mutated zombies from the Resident Evil video game franchise have invaded the Universal Studios Japan theme park, and no man, woman or baby-shaped morsel is safe from those infected by the T-virus.

Each night until November 11th the park is transformed, via props, 3d projection mapping and an invasion of costumed characters, into places found in Resident Evil, such as an Umbrella Corp. building and downtown Raccoon City.

Adventurous eaters can grab a bite to eat at the Biohazard Cafe and Grill, and there are even some shambling stage shows too rotten to miss. Now that's entertainment!

Awesome Dog Costumes Inspired By The Movies

Seeing dogs in costumes is one of our favorite things about Halloween, but haven't we all seen one too many dogs in a Hot Dog costume or sports jersey?

It's time to improve canine costuming by drawing inspiration from popular culture, like this gallery of dogs all dressed up and ready to star in a Hollywood movie.

There's a little bit of crossover with other doggie costume galleries, but I'm sure you won't mind seeing these cute pics one more time!

Human Motorcycle Body Painting

Talk about your well designed vehicles! These mean street studio machines are sporting four manpower engines and a bold look that'll make people say "whaaaaa??!"

Extremely flexible folks are painted and posed rather precariously on top of one another to form each bike shape, and they come in three varieties-sport bike, dirt bike and cruiser.

Because of the level of detail, and difficulty of model positioning, each shot took a day to complete, and if you want more info on how they turned man into machine watch the process video found at the link below.

Creative Costumes For Babies Too Young To Walk

Enjoy the fact that your baby is too young to walk by dressing them up in ridiculous outfits and taking lots of pictures for the interwebs.

You can make them look like a taco, or a box of Triscuit crackers in a picnic basket, or cover them in yarn noodles so they resemble a pot of spaghetti or...wait, there's a strong food theme going on here, isn't there?!

LUDO

0

LUDO is a famous French street artist, and while vandalism is illegal that doesn’t stop it from being cool.

LUDO was in London for the Moniker Art Fair (something I may or may not be a fanboy of) when he decided to do a few late night paste-ups. The folks over at Hooked Blog thought it might be a good idea to tag around for that, and boy am I glad they did. Check out more of his midnight mischief over at Hooked Blog.

If you like the skull imagery like I do, look to our Neatoshop

The Maker

In this short film by Christopher Kezelos, a rabbit-like creature channels Dr. Frankenstein. But there's a twist here that Mary Shelley's work did not have. -via the Presurfer

One Sick Pumpkin


The most underrated part of this pumpkin is the hat, “I don’t get drunk / I get Awesome!” Clearly, Mr. Pumpkin, things did not go your way last night.

Check out pumpkin stuff at our Neatoshop.

A Highbrow Halloween Reading List

If you're already tired of the never-ending marathons of Halloween horror films on TV, maybe you'd like to celebrate the season by some reading. Flavorwire has some suggestions in a reading list that ranges from Hamlet (yes, it's a ghost story) to Aim For the Head: An Anthology of Zombie Poetry.

Maybe it’s just us, but we always consider poetry as a form (barring, you know, limericks) to be naturally a little more highbrow than prose. Which balances out the fact that zombies are probably the most lowbrow of popular monsters. So if you’re a poetry buff looking for a little excitement on a cold October night, or just someone who’s felt the incomprehensible urge to compose a poetic ode to The Walking Dead, we suggest this anthology, which takes itself seriously, but not too seriously.

You're sure to find something intriguing in the list of 10 books. Link

Now That's a Scarecrow!

Scarecrows should, by definition, be scary, at least to birds. Encountering this one would give anyone the heebie-jeebies for a good week or so! It's described as what an Tolkien Orc would look like if it were struck by lightning. This is just one from the list of 13 Creepy Geeky Scarecrows you'll see at WebUrbanist. Link -via Maajak World

Update: The scarecrow shown here is a sculpture from 2005 called Roots, by Pumpkinrot. -Thanks, Linda H!

The 12 Best Geeky Costumes for Halloween 2012

As I’m sure you already know, Halloween is rapidly approaching, which means it’s time to get your costume together. Me, I’ve already decided to go as Marceline from Adventure Time and Zeon’s going to be the Doctor. For those of you who still haven’t decided though, here are a few ideas to provide you with some very geeky inspiration.

Best Costume for Johnny Depp Fans: The Depp Mash Up

Love Johnny Depp but have a hard time deciding between your favorite of his many great roles? Then consider combining them all into the Mega-Depp like this fellow, photographed by Flickr user greyloch. While I do enjoy the three films depicted in this costume, I do feel he missed out by not throwing in a little white powder under the nose, a cigarette in a cigarette holder and a fishing hat a la Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, but maybe he was scared of a Depp overdose.

Best Costume for Indecisive Geeks: Gandwho the Jedi

Alternatively, if you can’t decide between some of the most popular geek franchises out there, you can always chose to combine them like this gentleman did with Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who and Star Wars.

Best Costume for the Sexually Confused: Slave Sparrow

For those who want to combine both geek men and nerdy women’s fantasies, this Jack Sparrow/Slave Leia mash up is a great way to turn on a handful of people while confusing and flustering the rest.

Monster Briefs Are For The Guy Who Has Everything

These aren't the kind of briefs that make the ladies go meow, because these briefs are strictly for geeks!

Released by the publishers of horror comic magazines like Eerie, Monsters and Creepy in the 1970s, these briefs were both collectible and geeky, perfect for collectors of antiquated attire and those who love all those old school monster mags.

You Want To Dress Up Like Who For Halloween?

This Halloween be a good parent and a good influence at the same time- don't let your kids dress up like Charlie Sheen!

This may seem like a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised how many young men want to follow in Charlie's winning footsteps, and don't we all wish we had tiger's blood running through our veins?

The WTF Wagon Is The (Un)Official Car Of Halloween

This wicked looking car is known as the WTF Wagon, and the driver clearly lives life as if every day is Halloween.

It claims to be fueled by baby juice, but we're pretty sure that the WTF Wagon actually runs on the fear emanating from drivers and pedestrians that encounter this beast on the road!

How to Make Candy Corn on the Cob

candy corn on the cob

I loooooove corn on the cob. This is the only way it could be improved. After experimenting with different materials to serve as a core, Instructables member alaskantomboy found that raw cookie dough provided the structural strength that she needed.
