London Tunnels for Sale

Friday, November 28th, 2008

“For sale: a vast tunnel complex in central London. Former tenants include Britain’s secret service, the famous hot line between America and the Soviet Union during the cold war and 400 tons of government documents. The asking price is $7.4 million.”

Apparently, abandoned tunnels below the streets of London can be purchased for a not so small fee. Constructed in 1940, one mile long corridors were built as bomb shelters to protect about 8,000 people. The tunnels aren’t used any longer, but caretakers have been making sure things run swiftly down there.

How cool would it be to possess your very own London Tunnel? The possibilities are limitless. You could have massive parties, build the worlds scariest and largest “Haunted Tunnel” or get lost in a maze of corridors for days on end! You could even scare the ever-loving shit out of someone and reenact your very own American Werewolf in London tunnel scene and watch the blood poor!

They claim using the tunnel for amusement would be difficult. From the surface, there are only 2 elevators that lead down to the tunnel. Also, the oxygen is probably as stale as that recycled air you breathe in an airplane. Regardless, if I had $7.4 mil to toss around, I’d be sure to put in a bid for this piece of history.

Curious Graffiti: SPACE

Saturday, November 22nd, 2008

Hi there gruesome ghouls. Dr. Death-Threads here with an interesting tidbit…
Everyday, on my way to the operating room, located at the Memorial Death-Threads Hospital; I pass a building that catches my eye. The building has some interesting graffiti on it. Last week I finally stopped to snap a few shots for you fans at home.

SPACE 
Someone or something spray painted “SPACE” on the side of this building. I have no idea what the hell it means, but it’s still pretty cool. I especially like the skull inside the “P”. But what is this all about? Is “SPACE” some new street gang that has formed on the east coast? Who is their rival gang? The “PARALLEL DIMENSIONS”? Or maybe aliens came down and decided to spray paint their place of origin on our buildings. If so, does the skull suggest the impending doom of the human species?

SPACE 
To the left of the main image is “SPACE 07″. Maybe that’s the year they painted it? But what about the “1134″ directly above? Are they planning on going back in time to the year 1134? Who knows. I sure as hell don’t. Unfortunatley, the building will be demolished soon and whoever spray painted it, will have to find somewhere else to go.

OK, so maybe I’ve gotten a little obsessive about this, but I really want to know what this means. If you have any information about this phenomenon please let us know! Has anyone seen this anywhere else? Tell us!

Movie Review – “Class of Nuke Em High”

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Class Of Nuke Em High

Troma is known for many things. Making Academy Award worthy films is not one of them. That being said, their films cannot be taken too seriously. When watching a Troma film you pretty much know what you’re in for and if you don’t, you’re in for a world of hurt.

Class Of Nuke Em High

The plot in a nutshell: Radioactive water leaks from a nuclear power plant and contaminates a near-by school. All the kids from the honor society have turned into total punk assholes. They’re called the “Kreatens” and they go around harassing all the other students. The Kreatens sell pot to the kids throughout school, but there’s a catch: the pot has been growing at the power plant.

Class Of Nuke Em High

The two main characters are Chrissy and Warren. Their school days consist of cuddling, hanging out with friends and dodging The Kreatens. They’ve been dating for a while but haven’t had sex yet. Some friends buy the radiation-bathed marijuana and both Chrissy and Warren smoke it. BIG MISTAKE. (Not the pot smoking part. Just the fact that the pot is covered in radiation). They get stoned and super horny and they end up losing their virginity together. Yes, Chrissy gets pregnant!!! And Warren has a 12-foot erection!!! Disturbingly amazing.

Class Of Nuke Em High

Chrissy’s unborn child is really a monstrous, grotesque creature from hell. During this time Warren mutates into a smashingly strong super hero mutant thing. He goes around town, kicking the piss out of The Kreatens.

Class Of Nuke Em High

Anyway. The editing sucks, the continuity is terrible, the dialogue is juvenile and the acting is crappy. But there is nudity, drug use, monsters, blood, guts and terrible special effects. Let’s not forget about the awesome 80’s crap rock that is sprinkled throughout the film. A good movie to watch after a night of Binge drinking, maybe smoke some pot (no radiation) and your golden.
