Hey, everyone! This week we’re bringing you yet another fantastic artist for your viewing pleasure. The Devil’s Muse this time around is Tommy Payne, otherwise known as “The Artist Pain.”

His work can vary from hyper-realistic to incredibly surrealistic. It has one uniting factor though: It’s grisly and creepy, just what we love.

Take a look at the gallery of some of his work below, and let us know which is your favorite! If you want to see more, head over to Tommy’s Facebook page or website!

Then come back next week for another The Devil’s Muse!

Artist’s Bio:
My work is an amalgamation of artistic, tactile, and cultural influences. I have a strong appreciation for anything that is old and shows its age. I love old movies, antique cars, old metal of any kind, rust, decay and history. That shows in my paintings. I strive to make work that you want to touch as much as look at.

As you will see, I do not simply do variations of one theme very often. I will go from realism to abstract depending on my mood. And I will always try to learn from the piece before to make the next one better.

Episode 267: The Legendary John Harrison and The Haunting (1963)
This week we chat with filmmaker, producer, composer, writer, author...this guy's done it all...John Harrison. From working with George Romero on everything from Creepshow and Dawn of the Dead to Tales from the Darkside to the Dune miniseries to his Netflix series Residue...he's done it all. He even directed Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, which was Andrew LaSane's Scarred for Life pick, which is one of Terry's favorite movies. We chat about his long history in cinema; about how he started working with Romero to some insights into Tales from the Darkside. And we discuss his latest work, the novel Residue: Paramentals Rising, which is a sequel to the Netflix show. After learning about his horror history--including a memorable viewing of Night of the Living Dead--we find out why The Haunting terrified him as a twelve year old. John references an article written by Anthony McKay in Little Shoppe of Horrors, which can be ordered here.
