Lost Sock: Hysterical Horror Clips

Hey all,
Enjoy each and every one of these. I know I did. Some of the funniest horror deaths I could find. For starters here is the woman from Goonies getting a nasty assist from Buffy in Wes Craven's Deadly Friend. This may be my favorite death in any horror film.

Next up we have Troll 2. The death has already happened but "OH MY GOD!"

And finally I offer up Gingerdead Man. Not sure what to say but wow.

Lost Sock: Hysterical Film Titles (Part 1)

Hey all,
My odd love of grindhouse and old horror films has lead me to such lovely titles as "Strip Nude for Your Killer," "Frankenhooker," and "Microwave Massacre." I now present to you some of the most offensive, funny film titles I know of at the moment. You decide if they are unintentionally obscene or just plain hilarious. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
Note: These are all real films and available to rent so show some love.

Coons! Night of the Bandits of the Night

Dumpster Baby

Weasels Rip My Flesh


The Curious Dr. Humpp

Lost Sock: Hulu

Hey friends,

Before I leave for Boston I wanted to give you something to fill the void in my absence. I know you all will be missing me and will need some good entertainment to pass the time until my return. Check out Hulu.com. This is a great site where you can stream loads of TV shows and movies. They have, get ready for this, episodes of Facts of Life, Doogie Howser, M.D., It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Simpson, The Daily Show, and they are showing Weird Science this month. So seriously check out this site because I want it online all the time. It's truly the way TV should be going. See you all when I get back.

Lost Sock: Sketchtravel


This is such a great idea. Pass a sketch book along from artist to artist to make a unique collection. I wonder what other mediums this could work in... http://www.sketchtravel.com/

Lost Sock: Start Drawing




This site is absolutely amazing. It sells itself as "drawings by Asians." Well hot damn these Asians can draw. I look at this site and am amazed what can be done with the human hand. Take some time to check out several of the sections on this page.

Lost Sock: Bon Iver & The Dodos



I have been renewed in my love for acoustic singer/songwriters thanks to Bon Iver and The Dodos. I had pretty much given up on the genre until I heard both these acts.

Bon Iver sounds like early Iron & Wine by the way of Jeff Buckley's wounded vocals and Akron/Family's do it yourself naturalism. His album For Emma, Forever is a sad lament on love gone never to return. Check out "Skinny Love" at http://www.myspace.com/boniver.

The Dodos are apart of the too often used label "Freak Folk." Although I don't know a better way to describe this duo who has a pension for psych-out moments, I don't think it covers all sides of the band. This guitarist and drummer create more sound than should be capable for just two people. They make me listen to the acoustic guitar in a new way. Check them out at http://www.myspace.com/thedodos
