Updates! I Rarely Use Blogger!

I just realized I haven't updated this ol' thang in almost a year.
I've kind of abandoned my blogger account in favor of spreading the love across my twitter, tumblr, youtube and website.
You should check those things out instead!
On my website you can see this:

My 37 page comic! For free! As well as my webcomic Pet Sock, which I hope to one day continue working on when I have more free time (but there are still almost 100 strips to read).

Also! On my youtube channel, you can see shit like:

I interviewed some of my idols and some rad fucking people about breaking in/filmmaking/writing/awesometarded stuff. CHECK IT.
Also! A silly short I made! Date Night:

And fangirl shit, like my audio/visual tribute to Olivia Dunham, Fringe Division:


Um yeah, so that's what I've been up to over this semi-lengthy hiatus. GET WITH THE MOTHAFUCKIN' TIMES PEOPLE.

First 3 Pages of The Scares

Preview of The Scares Issue #1... Coming soon.

Also check out my tumblr http://larissathomas.tumblr.com/ which I'll be updating more often than blogger.

My SUPER Comic Entry!

Here's my entry for the SUPER comic contest. There's still a week left if you want to enter! (Just don't trump my comic, I really want that signed script!)

Man, I so can't wait to see this!!!!!!! AHHHH!!!!

Later edit: I won! Grand Prize!!! I'm currently caressing my James Gunn script and sniffing the envelope it came in as I write this.

Good Things

You interested in good things?


THE TAINT
This movie is full of filth, cocks, pus/semen, and ridiculousness, as well as some sweet music. I recieved the DVD a few weeks ago, and what a delight! It also comes with commentary. But you can download the movie as well (although you will want to share this movie, like the one in The Ring, and bless/curse those around you, so I do suggest getting the DVD).

HATCHET 2
Have you seen the first Hatchet (hi, Harmony from Buffy's boobs)? If you're a lover of all the classic slasher greats and you haven't seen Adam Green's Hatchet and Hatchet 2, you're doing yourself a great disservice. The death scenes are gleeful and gory, and the killer looks like a Hills Have Eyes version of Chucky on steroids. (And yeah, that's Candyman).

MEMOIR
Ben McCool and Nikki Cook's Memoir (Image) has two issues out so far, with more to go. If you're into small town horror phenomenon (come on, who isn't?) pick this up.

MISFITS
For a few months I had a couple of friends suggest I watch Misfits. I don't know why the description never appealed to me (residual disinterest in "mass" super powers after Heroes and The 4400 and whatever else did this concept). I finally watched it - back to back - it was amazing. The characters are hilarious, the situations are hilarious, the show is... hilarious. It stands leaps and bounds above it's predecessors. I don't even really know where to begin with my praise. The first episode does feature a Power Rangers meets Nike ad "transformation" clip, however don't be put off. Because the characters powers don't require any real amount of special effects, this show can take it to believable heights.



JOE BECKER'S NEW BLOG
To see Joe Becker's work is to love it. 

Check out his filthy new painting blog.

MISKATONIC INSTITUTE
I'm currently taking horror film classes at Miskatonic. Not only is it the best place in Montreal and has effectively saved me from losing my mind, but it also doubles as a Cinema for the weird and wonderful. Check this place out, there is something for all horror/occult fans.

Also, wetting my pants to see Hobo With a Shotgun, Super, Detention, The Innkeepers, Insidious and Scream 4.

Updates

The last week and a half I've been contributing a daily web strip to guerrillageek.com. When I say daily, I mean Monday to Friday. Hermits also deserve the weekend off, even if it is only to catch up on masturbating and gossip blogs.

Basically it's a conversational strip, where sometimes stuff happens (there's gonna be some spaced out action, I promise), but mostly it's conversations about awesome and awesomely bad stuff, ie: movies, TV shows, comics, books, and hot chicks. I don't have to be a lesbian to appreciate hot chicks, a'ight?

Its permanent address is here, and it's updated Mon-Fri Noon EST: http://www.guerrillageek.com/category/webcomics/pet-sock/

I know some of you are too lazy to click, so I posted a couple of the strips below:

Almost halfway done first issue of The Scares (if only I hadn't pushed it to 29 pages!). Feeling pretty happy with how all the redraws have turned out so far. Can't wait 'til it's done! Just need to stay away from the damn internet!
