AFTERPARTY MASSACRE movie co-written by Kyle Severn(Incantation, Acheron)



Giving a new twist to horror, the Afterparty Massacre, brings metal, blood and gore back to the screen! Written by Kristoff (Horrormerch.com/Spookygirls.com) and Kyle Severn (Incantation, Acheron, and other various side projects), Afterparty Massacre is one killer party with mind-blowing amounts of blood, metal and (naked) flesh!

Afterparty Massacre centers around live performances by Acheron and Incantation. During the show they encounter a mysterious female fan, that becomes a bloodthirsty killer with a voyeuristic side to her. "She loves watching and waiting for the perfect moment to attack her victims. Her bloodlust can not be contained and in the final scenes she unleashes her wrath on the band as well as the crowd until no one is left standing!"

Kristoff mentions. Plus, the soundtrack itself is a major part of this production including bands such as: 16volt, Asphyx, Cardiac Arrest, Crucifier, Denial Fiend, Divine Eve, Estuary, Fatalist, Funerus, Goreaphobia, Gravehill, Luxury Pushers, Master, Pentacle, Ventana and more! Both Incantation and Acheron are performing new exclusive songs within the movie. While Denial Fiend, Goreaphobia, Ventana and a few other bands will have unreleased exclusive tracks for this feature as well. "The music is just as important to this movie as the blood and gore." Kyle mentions. "The music itself really makes the scenes, it really completes the soundscape for a total massacre. We plan on releasing a CD of the bands featured in the movie via Ibex Moon around the time of the release of the film as well."

This film will be full of side stories, drunken crowds and plenty of scantly clad metal chicks with its share of nudity. "We're going at it from all angles!" Kristoff laughs. "We're shooting both hardcore and soft-core versions of footage here, just not sure at the immediate on which version it's all going to end up!"

This brings up the point that there may be two different versions of the film released. "We had the idea of shooting two versions of the film for both audiences... the ones that want a darker story with all the blood and gore but not all the hardcore sex involved, and the ones that want all hardcore sex with a lighter story line and the blood and gore mixed in!" He also notes "We'll be editing them both a bit differently to cater to both audiences. We'll be shooting the kill scenes from multiple angles and also doing the same with the hardcore/soft-core scenes so it's not just the same movie repackaged with 'bonus footage' as most movies are released today. Both versions will have different exclusive audio tracks and exclusive kill scenes in each version so it adds in a bit more to the depth of the production making it actually worth checking out both versions."

Along with the overdose on blood, metal, booze and sex comes the sideshow aspect as well. "We've 'hooked up' with a suspension crew and we're bringing in a few friends of ours to do up some fire/piercing/grinding performances as well." adds Kristoff. "We wanted to bring in these dangerous aspects within this subcultre that don't always get the most attention. We'll have guys suspended by hooks flying through the air, girls fire breathing, girls with split tounges, guys with all sorts of different body modifications and performance piercings everywhere! Having this dangerous attraction will be a great addition to this movie for sure!"

"It's a really fun project that I'm looking forward to be a part of!" mentions Kristoff in talking with him about the film. "Having worked with Rob Rotten on Texas Vibrator Massacre (Metro Video/Punx Productions) I definitely learned a lot from that experience and wanted to give horror movie making a go for myself." He also adds, "Plus when Kyle approached me about making a movie with all the bands that wanted to be part of such a huge soundtrack, we sat down with a few existing ideas I had and we elaborated on them to create this production."

The film is to be shot this February, with a tentative May release date in open markets. "With Incantation playing the Maryland Deathfest, we figured this would be the absolute best time for the release. Tons of black/death metal, lots of blood, lots of naked chicks, it's an ideal release date for this movie!" mentions Kyle in regards to the release of the film.

With the release of the UNRATED version for the Maryland Deathfest, Ibex Moon will be distributing the "cleaner" version of the film. On the other side, Punx Productions is on board to release the XXXTRA FLESH (adult) version as well, "Rob Rotten is great to work with and when I mentioned this idea to him he was hyped to bring this in line of his other horror releases (Texas Vibrator Massacre/Porn of the Dead) and being involved wherever he could." Kristoff mentions.

Look for both the UNRATED and XXXTRA FLESH versions of the movie plus the CD soundtrack for the Afterparty Massacre due out in late May.

Tattoos Safety From HIV (AIDS)

Tattoos Safety From HIV (AIDS)
When getting a tattoo, most people fear getting the virus known as HIV, which can lead to the dreaded AIDS virus. Although many fear HIV, it is just one of the many viruses that can result from tattoos. Staph, syphilis, tuberculosis, and hepatitis are all but a few of the other diseases that can result from tattoos. All it takes is a dirty or unsanitary needle and you could wind up contracting one of the deadly viruses listed above.




Just like other activities, tattooing can be very dangerous. Although tattooing is indeed dangerous, there are ways that you can minimize or eliminate the potential dangers. Each and everyday, tattoo artists have to adhere to a strict code of safety to ensure that the risk of contracting HIV or any other diseases is little to none. Professional tattoo artists will sterilize their equipment after each use. They use steam pressure autoclave when disinfecting their tattoo guns and needles. Bleach and alcohol don’t sterilize the equipment; they are instead used to prep the equipment.

Once the bleach and alcohol have been used on the instruments, they will then be autoclaved, which will sterilize them.
When the tattoo artist does the tattoo, he should always wear rubber gloves that can easily be disposed of. The ointment spreaders and any type of rags that are used should also be disposable. When you walk into the tattoo studio, the floors should be spotless. In the rooms where the tattoos are done, the working area should always be clean and sanitary. Before the tattooist starts the tattoo, he should always give each customer a brand new set of fresh needles. Then, he should always dip the needle in a small cap of pigment that he just took out of a large squeezable bottle. If the artist dips the needle into the big bottle, you may very well be sharing fluids with those who have had tattoos from that same big bottle.




Whenever you decide to get a tattoo you should always put safety first. Safety is very important with tattoos, as you could otherwise get a disease or a serious infection. Before you decide on a tattoo studio, you should always make sure that they are clean and sanitary. If you get a tattoo from a studio that is dirty or unsanitary, you could wind up on a never ending spiral of infections and viruses.

Unfortunately, no statistics seem to exist to help inform those interested in tattoos exactly what the risks are. While the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) currently list a number of potential risks for those who choose to get tattoos, no government organization has any numbers published to document those risks.


    Infection

  1. The risk for infection is unclear. People with diabetes or diseases that affect their immune system appear to be at higher risk. Keeping the area clean should help avoid infection, but is not a guarantee.
  2. Allergic Reaction

  3. While the FDA notes that it has not approved any inks that are used for tattooing for use on humans, it also does not keep a record of allergic reactions. It has been noted that some inks have a higher risk - such as red and yellow - due to their components, but no statistics exist. Part of the problem is that allergic reactions can happen up to years after the actual tattoo is applied, so keeping track of those who suffer a reaction is difficult.
  4. Granulomas

  5. Granulomas are raised bumps that occur as a reaction to skin damage. They can form from tattoos as the tattoo process injures the skin. There are no reported numbers as to how many people suffer from granulomas as a result of tattooing.
  6. Keloids

  7. Keloids are simply excessive scars that seem to grow beyond what is expected. Some people are more prone to them than others. If you have a tendency to grow keloids, tattooing will put you at risk. Again, however, no numbers exist as to how many people suffer from this side effect.
  8. MRI Complications

  9. Although some people are concerned about potential MRI complications, there have not been enough noted to compile any definitive record. It is noted, though, that permanent make-up tattooing--in particular eye liner--has become irritated after an MRI in several cases.
  10. HIV

  11. Tattooing does involve blood when the needle pierces the skin, but as of 2009, there are no recorded cases of HIV transmission through tattooing.
  12. Hepatitis

  13. Even the Red Cross is concerned with the risk of hepatitis being transmitted through a tattoo. However, the CDC's latest numbers from 1996 show that only .8% of cases (12 out of 13,387) appear to be related to tattooing.


Well, that was very brief. Just like all the men in my life.

Beautiful Star Tattoo

Choosing a Star Design for Your Next Tattoo

Although star designs are some of the most popular designs that are available for those seeking a tattoo, there are many people that still are determine to choose the star design, especially women that are unsure about which type of tattoo that they should get for their first work of art which is placed on the body. When choosing a star tattoo design, consider the methods which are used while creating the design and incorporate your personality into the design to ensure that your star tattoo has an element which can set it apart from the hundreds and thousands of other star tattoos that are on women around the nation.




These tattoo designs, although classic, can get old easily and therefore it is important to find a way to customize the designs which have been created. With the customization, you can take the tattoo from ordinary star designs to extraordinary – and a tattoo should be extraordinary when inked on to the skin as this is going to be a permanent addition to the body that should not be taken lightly. Consider what makes you special and use these aspects of the personality to create a tattoo that can demonstrate this. Star tattoos can be customized through the use of shooting star tattoos that can be placed through the arm, the leg or even up the foot into the ankle. These shooting star tattoos can be placed on the body and created through the use of shading to ensure that the tattoo is unique from any other tattoo on the body.







Customizing A Shooting Star Tattoo

Shooting star tattoos are a popular choice for girly tattoos and are placed anywhere on the body from the top of the foot cascading up towards the ankle, or through the hip and up to the side of the body. Shooting star tattoos are a girly choice and popular for those that are seeking tattoos for the first time, which can eventually be combined with other types of tattoos.

Shooting star tattoos can be customized with the use of colors and shading, as well as the amount of stars which are placed within the design. When customizing a shooting star tattoo, there are many options in which the individual can change the appearance of the tattoo by changing everything from the colors that are involved in the tattoo, from changing the directions of the stars, or using a combination of large and small stars through the entire process.





A popular way to change the appearance of the tattoo is to avoid using harsh lines to edge the tattoo, rather using colors to complete the stars and using shading to increase the outline of the stars causing a mystical appearance. This is an effective method that tattoo artists use to cause the tattoo to appear more girl y, rather than having harsh lines which are placed around each of the stars. After all, a shooting star tattoo should be colorful, whimsical and lack the harsh lines that stars do not have!

At any given time, a tattoo artist will be easily able to create a shooting tattoo that can be applied to the skin. There are often many ideas that are available in the tattoo shop that the individual can take advantage of, customizing the tattoo with the use of initials, letters and even other combination of tattoos that are available to customize a shooting star tattoo.

Lower Back Tattoos

A lower back tattoo is essentially a tattoo that has been made on the lower back of an individual. These tattoos are extremely popular amongst the female population across the world. These lower back tattoos have gained immensely in popularity over the years and are in vogue.






There are numerous designs that are available to any individual who wishes to get a lower back tattoo done. From the subtle butterflies to the amazingly brilliant star tattoos, there is a complete range of tattoos that are available for people across the world. The best part of a lower back tattoo is the fact that it essentially highlights the attitude and personality of the individual who wears it. These tattoos are generally considered to be the symbols of the care free and casual attitude of people. These various lower back tattoo designs came under major criticism from various sections of the world owing to the fact that they were believed to be symbols of promiscuity. It was understood that any woman who sports a lower back tattoo is “open” and promiscuous in nature.






The entire trend of tattoos started from various tribal designs. Various tribes across the world were characterized by certain symbols. These symbols were incorporated on the skin of al members of the tribe in order to demarcate them from other tribes. These tribal designs were then used as tattoos. Various lower back tribal tattoos are extensively used in the modern times. The most famous tribal tattoo is perhaps of the tribal suns that were related with the numerous tribal gods at some point of time. These tribal tattoos have been passed on from generation to generation and have been extensively practiced by various tattoo artistes through out the world.






Another very famous design of a lower back tattoo is the butterfly. The lower back butterfly tattoos are extremely popular and are largely considered as both cute and hot. These tattoos are known to enhance the sex appeal of the female sporting the tattoo to a very large extent. Along with the butterfly tattoos, various other designs including the lower back star tattoos and the lower back flower tattoos are gaining rapidly in popularity. These tattoos are often considered as an expression of one’s sentiment and attitude. Tattoos on the lower back are also extremely popular owing to the fact that the back provides a much larger area to the designer and thus any design can be properly set using the entire width of the back.


The Internet is a wide source of information and is full of pictures of lower back tattoos, including the lower back heart tattoos. Any individual who wants to get a particular design of tattoo done on his lower back can discuss the viability of the design with the tattoo artiste and can henceforth get his favorite design on his back. These sexy lower back tattoos are increasingly preferred by the younger generation of this day and age.



It should however be realized that these tattoos do not come without risks. It is widely believed no expecting mother should get any epidural injection or treatment. This is done in order to prevent various possible and imminent side effects that may arise because of the epidural. The worst possible side effect, a miscarriage can thus be completely avoided. An individual should therefore get these tattoos done only after making a complete check of his or her medical condition.
