the Battle of Helm’s Deep…in candy!

Every now and again a fan goes deep into the psychadelic technicolour orgasm which is fandom and busts out something completely insane and completely frickin’ cool. This, ladies, gentlemen, elves, dwarves, dryads, naiiads, and my fellow Narnians, is that thing.

The Battle of Helm’s Deep, in candy.

Helm's Deep, in candy

The whole thing was constructed out of cardboard, glue, icing and… well, candy. It clocked in at about 7 feet long by 3 feet deep by 2 feet tall. We used over 500 Gummy Bears as orcs and Uruk-Hai. The Elves, Dwarves and Men were represented by sour patch kids. Most of these were of course corpses.

Head on over to the site to see the whole gallery of pictures and details of the amazing Tootsie Roll Pop catapults.

A Junky’s Christmas podcast

I’m trying this again, just because I’m that damn stubborn. Totally worth it if you get it working, though.

[odeo=http://studio.odeo.com/audio/4609413]

Yay, I got it working! Good thing, because YouTube has been sketchier than a wild junky on the lookout for a hit lately.

Hurray! Happy feelings! Happy! Happy! Happy!

an introduction to crazy Japanese horror movies

So, how strange is this film? Here’s a pull quote from the review:

Life’s not all about singing and being peed on by strange monsters”

Stole this from Japanprobe, of course; it originally comes from The Hopeless Romantic and His Adventures in Japan, a longwinded or at least longtitled blog if ever there was one. Said H.Roma is all excited because not only has he done the following, and perfect, review of the travesty which is A Journey to the Drifting Classroom schlockfest, but he’s also scored an interview with one of the child actors who made such an unforgettable impression in those tightly choreographed routines and superfly Eighties duds. Alas, not the one who tries to fuck his own mom. Not the one with the leopard-print bomber jacket who gets the nobody puts Baby in the corner moment. It’s the black kid with the racist piggy bank! How exciting is that?!?!?!?!

Now pay close attention, children; there will be a test next period.
