Nightmare Variations

A nice homage to Gorey, here’s a tongue in Cheek Mockumentary on the nature of Evil:

Carol of the Old Ones (Classic Version):

Awake Ye Scary Great Old Ones:

I Saw Mommy Kissing Yog-Sothoth ( Old Time Radio Audio Only):

Away In a Madhouse (Audio Only):

Freddy the Red Brained Mi-Go ( audio only):

Its Beginning to Look a lot like Fishmen:

I’ve used Ubuntu for the last couple of months, first as the gOS version for netbooks, and finally at the release of 8.10: Intrepid Ibex, I downloaded the Adept upgrade manager to try the full version.

Then, I found Ubuntu Satanic Edition.

Awesome.

Ubuntu Satanic isn’t really a remix. It’s a series of Well executed screensavers, splash screens and desktop themes that  change your linux box into a horror themed monstrosity. Fun for the entire family, if your family’s like mine.

Here’s a couple Screen Shots:

^One of Two desktop Themes. One Dark, One Light.

^KDE Destop

^Background. One of Several

^One of the Login Screens

^A Compiz Cube

If you have ubuntu,  follow the directions on the Satanic Edition Download page for your packages. If you Don’t Give the Live CD a try.

And You Thought the Only Evil in Computers came out of Redmond?

Here’s a couple of things to listen to to satiate your hunger for all things evil:

• Darker Projects- Horror and Dr. Who! Who could ask for more?
• Drunken Zombie- Going Strong with 50 Broadcasts!
• Frequency of Fear- Love the OTR Shows Featuring Peter Lorre, Bela, and Novelty Records!
• Pseudopod- Well produced. Big name recognition. However, uneven quality. Check out their sister podcasts for fantasy and science fiction too.
• Transmissions from Beyond- Interzone publisher TTA features stories from their family of magazines
• Well Told Tales- Pulp crime, adventure and horror.
• Pod of Horror- News, reviews and the state of horror fiction.

Enjoy.
