Your Favorite Geek Icons Get Dissected in These Fantastic Art Prints

How many of you remember those books that would dissect buildings, ships, airplanes, submarines, etc…? I had one of those books and I would stare at it for hours, mesmerized by the incredibly complex and intricate ways everything worked together. It taught me that there is so much more going on than meets the eye that I need to keep a very open mind so as to try and navigate my way through all the various events that led up to a circumstance. I find that doing so grants me empathy and an ability to discuss nearly anything from better perspectives.

That being said, I don’t know how looking at the internal organs of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man can help me be a better person but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to examine it with a certain sick pleasure! It’s all thanks to artist Nychos and his fascinating way of taking various geek and real life icons and then dissecting them in horrific yet hypnotizing ways. We’ve got a gallery of several examples below but more can be seen via his Tumblr.

Nychos’ art can be seen at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York City though July 23rd. More information can be found here.

Cheers to Imgur user HeroWeDeserve for bringing this to my attention.

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.
