Can You Name All the References in This Mash Up Poster?

The Hero Complex Gallery exhibition Sci-Scapes opened recently and it features artwork by Joshua Budich, Tim Anderson, Tim Doyle, as well as others, each of whom provided artwork inspired by Moebius, Katsuhiro Otomo, and Geof Darrow. But it’s the combined work of Josan Gonzalez and Laurie Greasley that really took us aback!

Their piece “The Raid” is a mashup of some of sci-fi, horror, and anime’s most iconic characters, all of whom are engaged in a massive battle that brings blood, gore, and violence. The final result is a smorgasbord of characters that becomes a veritable “Where’s Waldo?” of trying to identify each person contained within the piece. The obvious ones are from Akira, Blade Runner, Alien, Ghost in the Shell, and Blade but there are ones that will be a mite more challenging to recall. How many can you identify?

If you want to order a copy for yourself, you can do so right here.

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
