I really don’t know if I’ve seen a grander Lego display than this. I mean, yes, theres the totally awesomely horrific Cthulhu Lego masterpiece, but this is incredibly fun in a zombie apocalypse sort of way!
Behold Zombie Apocafest 2008 in Lego!

More BoingBoing linkage.
BoingBoing has a mini review of a 1943 book titled “I am Thinking of My Darling”.
Originally published in 1943, the book is about a happiness virus that spreads across New York City like a plague. The disease makes the afflicted lose their inhibitions, act like they perpetually have 2-3 drinks under their belt (without slurring or clumsiness, they’re sharper in fact), and extremely resistant to doing anything they don’t want to do.
Sounds good to me. I’ll have to see about getting a hold of a copy. Read the full review at BoingBoing.
Horror! Death! Mayhem! Cuteness!

Brass Goggles has found a rather entertaining YouTube video of a pith helmet wearing Briton singing the praises of tea.
Now when I say “Oo”, you say “Long”.
Tomorrow is day one of the Zompire: The Undead Film Festival 2008, so if you happen to live near Portland, Oregon, go get yourself dressed up as the undead and have your self a gory good time!
With a film named “Zombie Western: It came from the West”, you just can’t go wrong!
Chaosium has two new books for Summer 2008.
The first, “The Klarkash-Ton Cycle” is a collection of Lovecraftian stories from Lovecraft friend and fellow writer Clark Ashton Smith. Just who is this “Klarkash-Ton” character? Well, besides having been an Atlantean priest, the name was a joke on Clark Ashton Smith’s name that HPL used in stories and personal letter to Smith. Those wacky weird fiction writers!
The second is a Zombie novel entitled “Voodoo Virus” from author William Jones, telling the story of a deadly virus and a post-apocalyptic New York City.
So I couldn’t stay away… LostCarcosa.net, though it never really left, is back in session. Though I am decidedly not religious in any conventional sense, there is much wisdom in the following phrase:
Grant to us the serenity of mind to accept that which cannot be changed; the courage to change that which can be changed, and the wisdom to know the one from the other.
Somewhere out there are people who deserve happiness, friendship, love, and maybe a helping hand. While I can not change a certain heart breaking situation of my own, I can continue trying to make the world a little better one person at a time.
Sorry for all the off topic postings. Back to the show! Starting with the trailer for “Masters of Horror: Haeckel’s Tale”
HorrorYearBook’s Thursday comic review is the place to get the info on a comic if you’ve been craving some zombie sex. I personally believe that if more people would just have sex and stop making it into something wrong, the world would be a much much better place. Even if that place were a zombie infested, post-apocalyptic, ashen shell of a world.
Writer Rick Remender (Fear Agent, and yes, I have to read that book) along with Tony Moore (The Walking Dead) and artist Kieron Dwyer (Remains) band together with their zombie power and craft an original, B-Movie story with X-rated flair, filled with adult industry lingo and rotting corpse madness. If you ever wondered if a zombie could get a boner? Your answer is here.
So head on over to HorrorYearBook to find out just in which comic your answers lie waiting.
