‘Attack on Titan’ Meets ‘Pokemon’, Nightmares Ensue
The massively popular anime Attack on Titan is already more than a little twisted and gruesome on its own. Almost every episode brings with it copious amounts of gore, as people are crushed, thrown, torn apart, and eaten alive by gargantuan, soulless humanoids called Titans. Mr. Disgusting even recommended it back in June, after powering through the series over a weekend.
My experience with Attack on Titan was largely the same. A friend, who I often use as my personal anime guru, recommended it to me and after taking his advice I ended up spending an alarming majority of the following week binging on the hugely addictive series whenever I could. It’s a difficult show to take a break from, as each episode tends to end with a massive cliffhanger that leaves you yearning for more.
But the point of this post isn’t to stack more love onto Attack on Titan — which happens to be available, with subtitles, on Netflix Instant — it’s to share with you these nightmarish creations by artist Beth Emery. Below, you’ll discover what happens when you combine these monstrous Titans with cuddly, adorable Pokemon.
I’m so, so sorry.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
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.
