Print’s Not Dead: Ion Magazine Issue 52
By michael on Oct 5, 2008 in Print's Not Dead
The Halloween issue of Ion Magazine is now online and on the the streets. This is interview heavy issue is a good one and here’s why. It features:
-An interview with Pascal Laugier, director of the greatest French torture porn of all time, Martyrs.
-An interview with Eric Berglund from The Tough Alliance, who you really need to listen to (listen to Silly Crimes by The Tough Alliance here).
-An interview with Bruce McDonald (Hardcore Logo) and Stephen McHattie about their terrific new Canadian sci-fi horror thriller Pontypool.
-A ridiculously awesome fashion editorial shot by Kate sZatmari called the Cellar. All the blood stains on the photos are actually real blood. We went through a lot of interns this issue.
-A surprisingly informative article about Goth fashion by Terri Potratz. More interesting than that, Terri reveals she used to have a crush on some dork who wore fake fangs. Reading between the lines, I suspect Terri may have a journal that she calls her “Book of Tears.”
-Local writer/filmmaker David Bertrand tackling the horoscopes. He took a unique approach and picked out a bizarre horror movie that matches up with your sign. The best one he recommends is Possession. There’s a graphic sex scene between a woman and a squid demon in it.
-A Sam Kerr short story about leprechauns and LSD.
