Neon Demon posters
The Neon Demon is one of my favourite films of recent years. I wrote up my thoughts on it a while back. Here are some of my favourite posters that I’ve found, created by other fans of the film.

Welcome to the Junji Ito Manga Site
The Junji Ito Manga Site is my dedication to the works of acclaimed Horror Manga artist and writer, Junji Ito. Ever since I read my first manga, The Enigma of Amigara Fault, I was hooked on Junji Ito’s work. I couldn’t quite describe the feelings that his work gave me. I was unsettled; I was…

Ellen Ripley (circa 1979)
In celebration of my restarting Alien: Isolation later, I thought I’d share a commemorative picture of Sigourney Weaver from the film Alien.
