Rudolf Tattooing Grimacing Santa Claus

Bizarre Art

This image of Santa grimacing while being tattooed by the sadistic Rudoph is too funny. And how about that skull bandana Rudolph is wearing? Very cool.

As for Santa, it doesn't seem he is built for too much tolerance for pain, as he looks like he's either being a big baby about it or Rudolph is doing a little more to him then we know. Bad Rudolph!

One thing going for this Santa though is those huge muscles. Maybe that's from all those rides in the sleigh holding the reins through the centuries.

Strange Celebrity Insurance

Celebrity Insurance

Celebrities insurance for different parts of their bodies has been around since Betty Grable famously insured her legs decades ago for $1 million. Today some celebrities consider that nothing, as in one case a female celebrity has insured her legs for an extraordinary $1 billion: Mariah Carey.

Other major celebrities with big policies include dancer Michael Flatley, who has his feet insured for $39 million, and David Beckham, who has insured his legs for $70 million. In the case of these two guys it's understandable.

Some other body parts of things insured by celebrities include taste buds, breasts, nose, chest hair, smiles, voice, sperm, mustache and hands.

Tom Jones insured his chest hair for $7 million, while Dolly Parton's boobs are insured for $600,000. With Dolly I think we all believe she got a great deal.

Who insured his sperm? None other than David Lee Roth, in case a paternity suit was ever filed against him.

Zombie Fighters Prepare!

Zombies

You know they're coming. The zombies will soon be released in an attack around the world, and only those prepared will survive.

So I thought I'd include the ultimate in zombie survival gear, which simply includes the words: ‘In Case Of Zombies Break Glass.’

Inluded in your zombie survival kit is a shotgun, two handguns and two grenades.

This is too funny.

Extreme Photos from James Ostrer

Bizarre Art Trends

We've been touching on a little bit of the extreme or bizarre art theme lately, and here's another from James Ostrer, who like to photo provocative scenes like the one here with the dead ballerina hanging upside down with a rope around her ankles.

As with all strange and provocative art, I'm not always sure what the creator of the art is trying to say, other than to cut through the senses and be in your face with something that catches you off guard.

Anyway, if you like things different, you can check out his website, which even has the homepage looking a bit different and creepy.

Bizarre Art - Eugenio Merin's Dark Collection

Bizarre Art

A lot of people were weirded out by the latest collection of Eugenio Merin which includes lots of twisted sculptures to satisfy even the darkest tastes.

For example, you've got the Dalai Lama toting a machine gun, and Fidel Castro looking like a zombie. You've even got Krusty the clown committing suicide in these works. Osama bin Laden doing a disco dance is the scariest. Hehe.

Anyway, check em' out and see what you think.

Bizarre Celebrations | Zombie Festivals

Bizarre Celebrations

One of the more recent bizarre festival and celebration has been the zombie walk or zombie festival. One of those has started to be held annually in Madrid, Spain, and includes all the zombie accessories you need to look the part.

The asserted idea behind holding the festival is that there is no more room in hell, so the undead now walk the streets of Madrid.

Of course makeup stores in the area are more than glad to offer the zombie wannabees their choice of accessories like "terror eyes" to mimic the undead.

LKM, a Spanish makeup business is behind the organization of the festival.

Bizarre Art Trends | "Untitled Hardcore Zombie Project" from Bruce LaBruce

Bizarre Art Trends

When I found this my immediate reaction was: whaaaat? At first I thought it was really going to be edgy, because of the crazy photo you see with Tony Ward (Madonna's former something) putting the gun to his temple.

But after going through a number of the photos, there's just too much blood for me. Not in the squeamish way, but just in a way that makes it too unreal, fake, and boring; it takes over the photos, and you lose the models and mostly irrelevant posing.

The best picture is the one I mentioned. The rest don't do much for me.

I suppose there's supposed to be a shock factor here, but to me it doesn't happen.

This production is by porn/horror producer Bruce LaBruce, and is running at the LA Peres Project until June 27.

Bizarre Celebrations | How about a Birthday Cake of a Rat Eating Your Arm?

Bizarre Celebrations

I'm not sure who thinks of a birthday cake with a rat chewing an arm that has been dismembered, but that's what someone did when they thought of their loved one.

Just imagine: "Honey, when I thought of you, I thought of a big rat chewing on your arm after it had been torn off from the socket. Would you like chocolate or vanilla ice cream with that?"

Just a little bit of a weird birthday idea if you ask me.
