Vomit Fist Teaches You How To Apply Corpse Paint (Exclusive)
If ever there was a makeup style that screamed “horror!”, it would have to be the infamous “corpse paint” that is widely used throughout the black metal genre. Meant to recreate a demonic, possessed, or deceased look (sometimes all three), the paint is a way to give emphasis to the harsh, often evil overtones that the music creates.
For those of you who have wondered how such designs are created, New York City blackened death metal band Vomit Fist, which features 17-year old drummer Lurkrot, his father, guitarist Vürdoth, and 18-year old vocalist Skrag, have put together a video that shows how to put on the makeup and, if time is of the essence, do a quick and dirty job. Check out the video below!
You can order the band’s latest release Forgive But Avenge via Bandcamp.

A gnarly infection threatens to claw its way out of a moving camper in the first trailer for Shudder’s claustrophobic Hellcat.
The feature debut of writer/editor/director Brock Bodell, who previously edited the Fantasia title Ultrasound, makes its debut on Shudder on August 14.
In Hellcat, “Lena wakes up in a moving camper trailer with a horrifying wound. She’s warned by the driver that they have one hour to get to a doctor, or she’ll succumb to an unimaginably awful fate. As the pain sets in and reality begins to fray, who should really be afraid?”
Dakota Gorman (Natural Disasters) leads the cast that also includes Todd Terry (“Breaking Bad”), Liz Atwater (The Other People), Jordan Mullins (The Bikeriders), and James Austin Johnson (“Saturday Night Live”) in a voice role. Bodell also produces alongside Andrew Duensing and Nate Eggert.
Hellcat made its world premiere last summer at Fantasia. I wrote in my review, “Hellcat is a bit of a Trojan horror that defies easy classification, by design. Bodell’s sneaky debut feature is occasionally too sparse in its worldbuilding in its bid to preserve the mystery, but not enough to detract from the thrilling road thriller that transforms into a completely left-field type of horror we don’t get nearly enough of. The stripped-down tribute to a classic horror staple catches you off guard in more ways than one, marking Bodell as one to watch.”
In other words, there’s a lot more than meets the eye to Hellcat‘s simple infection setup, delivering plenty of surprises along its bumpy road of horrors.
Check out the trailer and poster below and add Hellcat to your watchlists asap.
