What you may need to know:
1. Ig Perrish (Daniel Radcliffe) wakes up one morning to find horns growing from his forehead. As you do.
2. The horns have the inexplicable effect of causing complete strangers to share their deepest secrets and impulses. Like Ryan Tubridy.
3. This horror/comedy is based on the novel by Stephen King’s son, Joe Hill. Some of you may remember him as Billy, the creepy kid in George A. Romero’s Creepshow (1987), written by his dad.
4. Daniel Radcliffe has admitted that he’s not the greatest actor but we hear he rocked in The Cripple of Inishmaan on Broadway.
5. It can’t be easy growing up on screen – just ask Shia LaBeouf. He was originally down to play the lead but had some issues.
6. Broadsheet Prognosis: Harry Potter gets the horn.
Release Date: October 31.

Pictures by Random Irish Photos today of the second Asian elephant calf born at Dublin Zoo this year.
The healthy unnamed male calf was born to mother Anak at 6.24am on Tuesday weighing in at 70kg.
He will join the rest of the herd – Bernhardine, Asha, Yasmin and her new calf which was born last month, mum Anak and Dad Upali in the Kaziranga Forest Trail at Dublin Zoo which is sponsored by The Natural Confectionery Company.

An architectural installation being built in Collins Barracks this afternoon
Beyond Pebbledash in Clarke Square [Collins Barracks] is an architectural installation aiming to engage, challenge, provoke and inspire new ways of thinking about our city and urban architecture. The exhibition is on display from 27th August until 30th November 2014 at the National Museum of Ireland.
The project involves the erection of a ‘typical’ Dublin pebbledash house, at a scale of 1:1. It is composed of a reconstructed pebbledash facade on a steel skeletal frame detailing its walls, stairs, doors, rear fenestration, ceilings and roof.
Anyone?
A mere preliminary sketch of the productivity-gobbling art treasurhouse on offer at Great Art In Ugly Rooms – a Tumblr wherein great art is observed situated in ugly rooms.
Above: Self Portrait (1910) by William Orpen, American Gothic (1930) by Grant Wood, Portrait of The Artist’s Mother (1871) by James Abbott McNeill Whistler and one of Maurizio Cattelan’s taxidermied horses.
