One-man band Anders Flanders takes on the impossible – nonsensical poodle-haired rock anthem ‘The Final Countdown’ by Europe  – and almost nails it.

It’s the austerity version.

Needs more spandex.

The menacing, Don Baker harmonica-howling title sequence for upcoming Irish indie feature The Late Men is a finalist in South by Southwest’s (SXSW) Film Design Awards Excellence in Title Design Competition.

The no-budget production  is competing against the likes of 21 Jump Street, The Avengers, and Skyfall.

The sequence was designed by director Van Poynton and produced by Luke Page.

The Late Men*, an apocalyptic crime thriller starring Baker, Stephen Cromwell and Tony Murphy, and produced by Page, Poynton, and Ciarán Fogarty, is currently in the final stages of post-production.

Trailer here.

Wikipedia sez:

At temperatures below about −25 °C (−13 °F), bubbles will freeze in the air and may shatter when hitting the ground. When a bubble is blown with warm air, the bubble will freeze to an almost perfect sphere at first, but when the warm air cools, and a reduction in volume occurs, there will be a partial collapse of the bubble. A bubble, created successfully at this low temperature, will always be rather small; it will freeze quickly and will shatter if increased further.

That’s what we thought.

A Montauk Monster (redux) washed up on the Pembrokeshire coast.

Just ‘over the ‘way’

“Immediately I thought it was a horse but it had claws like a bear and a body of a pig. Surprisingly it didn’t smell.”

Claws like a bear.

Body of a pig.

It must be ours.
