My fursona, T.J. Palmer, in a more casual and less sexual position than some previous pieces. I figured it would be good to get a piece done featuring What T.J. is like most of the time, which is friendly, warm hearted and kind, as opposed to when he's sexually charged up, where he's friendly, warm hearted, kind and a pervy horndog! XD
A really wonderful, anime inspired piece done by the incredibly kind Vatinyan , go check them out!

Lol not quite XD! It's actually a reference to this movie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Driller_Killer
Oh dear, you're a B-movie fan as well XD? Now that you linked me I remember finding the trailer to that movie along with the 1978 movie The Toolbox Murders, and then some nice but nasty Italian Giallos ^++^ I love 1970s through early 1980s B-movies and slashers ^++^ Do you have a favorite and a recommendation :3?
*Squeals in happiness at finding another b movie horror fan on FA* As far as my favorite Italian Giallo films go, I'd have to say my favorites are "The New York Ripper" and "My Dear Killer", along with "Strip Nude for your Killer" and "Tenebre", as for a recommendation, I'd say above all else, for someone to check out Mario Bava's "A Bay of Blood", as it's one of the pinnacles of the genre, as well as one of the most influential on the slasher films that ould come to dominate the 80s. Also, there's the often overlooked Spanish Giallo film "Blue Eyes of The Broken Doll" starring Spanish horror icon Paul Naschy.
As for slasher films, one of the most underappreciated is "Pieces" from 1982, wondrously cheesy and features copious nudity and brutal chainsaw kills. Another one would have to be the wonderfully stylish 1987 italian slasher film "Stagefright", which features one of the most memorable slasher movie villains outside of the big 4, There's also the 1986 film "The Mutilator" featuring some really gruesome scenes with a fishing hook. There's also the ultra well made 1981 film "The Prowler" Featuring easily some of the best kill sequences of the decade. Then, there's also the 1982 campfire inspired slasher film "Madman", along with the ultra-violent 1981 film "The Burning".
I've got a library of these films in my home, if you want to know about any others, just ask. :)

Oh my gosh *flails around happily and spazzes* XD I've only heard of Pieces (I think I saw that one, it was pretty good ^++^) and now I have so many to look up, my knowledge pales in comparison but! I wanted to ask your opinion on these films:
"Death Smiles on a Murderer" (1973)- Klaus Kinski is so weird it works well in this, and I found the theme song and ambience very entrancing ^++^
"Buio Omega" (1979)- Is this a Giallo film? Very dark but fun ^++^
"Love Me Deadly" (1973)- Kind of a sad story but darkly fun imo ^++^
"Nightmare" (1981)- Again that title theme stuck with me and fun gore scenes.
"Freakshow" (1989) and "La Chiesa" (1989): Are these B movies?
Oh I have a lot too but just from YouTube, you sound to be an authority on movies like this ^++^

Well, i've actually never seen "Death Smiles on a Murderer", so you do know some things that i don't know, I'll have to look it up. :)
As for "Buio Omega", I know it better as "Beyond the Darkness", though it is the same movie, being an Italian exploitation movie from the late 70s, it has about a million different titles XD. But I do own it, it's one of my favorite exploitation movies from the era, and while it's not a giallo film, it is a wonderful and weird look into a disturbed taxidermist's mind(seriously, i couldn't even think of taxidermy without shitting myself after seeing the movie) after losing his wife. I especially love the scene where he's cutting up the body of his wife, and then eats her heart. I loved it!
"Love me deadly" is another one that i own, though I haven't watched all of it, yet.
"Nightmare" or as my copy of the movie is titled "Nightmares in a damaged brain" is easily one of my favorite slasher films of the era, with easily the most sympathetic killer I've ever seen in a slasher film. Seriously, George is such a pitiable guy and i wanted him to get over what was causing his insanity, because you knew that he didn't want to do it, but was compelled by mental forces beyond his control to do it. Also, gotta love that Tom Savini handiwork, although he vehemently denies working on it, there are photos of him on set doing the make up.
"La Chiesa" or "The Church" as my copy says, is one of the movies i think of first when i think of the word "Gothic". It's just this massive cathedral that just oozes mood, and is beautifully photographed to boot. I especially love the scene where the father of Asia Argento's character confesses his sins as a demon to the priest, and then runs downstairs and guts himself with a power drill! So awesome!
And yeah, they both would technically be b-movies, despite being well filmed, the church still has questionable dubbing and a lot of unanswered questions, not to mention a fair bit of cheese from time to time. But it's still awesome!
And, while i wouldn't call myself an authority on this, thank you so much for the kind words.

Oh yay I was able to be the first to inform you of this movie, I found it very atmospheric and nice ^++^
Oh yes that's actually the title I first saw when I watched it on YouTube, and I see ^++^ What's the meaning of giallo again? I thought it was something to do with gore or is it more murder mystery?
I kind of felt badly for him, in that he seemed very vulnerable with that lady "taking care" of him, while he missed his wife so badly he ate her heart to have her with him forever <3
Oh good, I always cringe at the embalming scene, that's a creepy thought to be embalmed alive >.<
And sweet, yes I recall also seeing it as the latter title ^++^ I also felt badly for the man, he did seem to be at the mercy of his mind, or some sort of sinister forces *nods* Oh yes I read a little something about Tom Savini being credited for the special effects, but I didn't realize he so vehemently denied it >.< Haha nice <3
Yes, you remember details of this movie better than I did, but it was a very nice mood and atmospheric piece ^++^
Cheese is usually very welcome with these films ^++^
Have you seen Dream Demon? I also liked that one from 1988 I think it was ^((^
Lol I made a face butt sign my face like a butt there XD
Well you're an inspiration in your knowledge ^++^ Have you seen The Island, from 1980 I think it was? I never have but the trailer sets me on edge >.<

I'm an inspiration? *Whole body blushes redder than a cherry and then squees and hugs you, while naked, of course. :P* So much love for you!! *Squeeeeeeeee*
Well, actually giallo, in Italian, simply means "Yellow", which is a reference to the yellow covers of many of the pulpy crime novels that flooded Italian shelves after the fall of Mussolini. Many elements from those stories were also used in the giallo films of the 60s and 70s.
They basically mean murder mystery, but what sets giallo films apart from other murder mysteries before, and after, was it's style. These movies often utilized bright, garish colors, beautiful cinematography and locations, gorgeous naked women (seriously, many women i've seen in these films are some of the sexiest and most beautiful i've ever seen), often twisted plotlines involving killers with deep psycho-sexual motivations for their actions, and graphic violence that often pushed the boundaries of on screen censorship for the time. Because of this, several giallo films, namely "Tenebre" and "The New York Ripper" were banned outright in the U.K. in the early 80s, having been caught up in the notorious "Video Nasties"" scandal.
As for "The Island", is that an alternate title for the movie known as "Anthropophagous"? A movie about a cannibalistic serial killer terrorizing visitors to a deserted greek island?
