Seth Rogen's Fake Star Wars Porn Versus Actual Star Wars Porn [NSFW]
Will Zach and Miri Make A Porno's "Star Whores" spoof skin-flick stand up against actual Star Wars porn? We've collected the best Star Wars porn from artistic porn site Cathouse and compared it with a few shots from the new Rogen comedy. On one hand, you've got Elizabeth Banks as Princess Leia, a dianoga dildo and little tubby Rogen running around with a blaster strapped to his exposed thigh in Solo's duds. But Miravi from Cathouse is a genius, as the artist manages to disrobe a young Aunt Beru and get her and Padme together. It's NSFW in any capacity. More » -

Career in Creatures: A Stan Winston Art Retrospective
With the sad news earlier this week that special effects master Stan Winston had died, Hollywood lost one of its master creature-makers. Though Winston's studio did do some digital effects, Winston may have been one of the last great artists of the animatronic. With the help of a huge group of artists, sculptors, mechanical engineers, and even (at one point) the Sociable Robotics Lab at MIT, Winston built everything from a life-sized dinosaur for Jurassic Park to the uncannily realistic teddy bear bot for the movie A.I. Artificial Intelligence. He also had a hand in some productions you might not have guessed, like 1970s Wizard of Oz remake The Wiz with Diana Ross and Michael Jackson (holy crap I loved that movie when I was a kid). At the time of his death, he was working on James Cameron's upcoming Avatar, and Martin Scorcese's Shutter Island — but despite his association with primo directors, his amazing creations have appeared in more than one cheesy-but-awesome movie, too. Below, we take you on a photographic tour of Winson's career in creatures. More » -

Five Reasons to Watch Movies that Hurt You, Haunt You, and Make You Want to Vomit
Welcome back to Horrorhead, a column where we explore the intersection of horror and scifi. I wasn't born a horror movie fan, I made myself one through years of careful practice and studious watching. Everybody has an origin story, and mine begins with the pulsing, gooey strands of sludge that enveloped and destroyed every single point-of-view character in the 1970s version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I was so young that I missed the political allegory about Nixon, and the joke about how Spock plays one of the pod people. I crunched down into the fake velvet movie theater seat, wondering if there was a way to worm out of the narrative but still make it through. My first discovery came then: If I plugged my ears, blocked out the heart-beating soundtrack, I could survive the alien invasion. More »
