This is a STUNNING image. I cannot fault it. I have given full marks for all categories.
Vision: this image seems as if it has been hand-picked from a series of bad acid trips, or recurring nightmares from some horrific post traumatic stress sufferer... Very very sinister and more than just a little bit scary...... the manic and deranged look on the model's face is just perfect. To coax darkness from any model can be challenging, and this is sublime. A true venture into the subversive nature of us humans and our endless fascination with the human mind, and the macabre...
Originality: i have witnessed a big increase in the amount of images falling into the horror and macabre genre - must be the time of year... LOL never seen anything QUITE like this. the attention to detail to create is worthy of respect - from the shaven head, the decaying teeth and make up... amazing work on both the photographer and model's part - and if self-stylized then even more kudos.
Technique: awesome. i cannot fault it. the light - the composition, the pose, and the attention to detail. perfect distressed treatment in the post processing too. wonderful work.
Impact: grisly, gruesome, twisted, sick, haunting, horrific, shocking, brutal, ugly - yet brilliant! seeing this image full size was like an electric shock. i daren't look at the screen - those eyes follow you around the room - haunt you and scare seven colours of shit out of you... unforgettable and one of the best images i have seen in this genre ever.
Others take note - you don't need lashings of that ridiculous raspberry sauce shit and fake sutures to make an image horrific and excel in this genre... a twisted mind, and the demons that exist in broken minds is more terrifying and this seems, in my humble opinion, to epitomise this - and that scared the me more than anything i've seen this Hallowe'en...
...... Yet...!!!!
