"All The Nightmares" Published by Faine Contemporary Art 2017
"Oh you prettythings" by David Bowie provided the starting point for this homage to the horror film genre. We all seem to be excited by the ability of films to frighten, be it the surreal anxiety of a movie like 'Repulsion', or the instantaneous shock of the creature exploding from the chest ofJohn Hurtin in Alien. Most film goers rember Jack Nicholson's "Here's Jonny" and Norman Bates stabbing scene in the shower in Psycho. A few of us had to admit to having nightmares after sneaking in underage to the local flea pit to see Christopher Lee's blood stained canines in Dracular. |
