This is awesome. This chick is a keeper. For my boyfriend's birthday I wanted to make a crazy cake in the sci-fi/horror direction. Initially I wanted to do the cryogenically frozen head of Commander Powell from Dark Star, but a couple of friends said it was too esoteric, and were right. So talking it over, figured out that The Thing would be somewhat more recognizable. I basically sculpted the faces out of fondant on rice crispy treat and then plopped them on top of a cake and finished off the edges. It took about two and a half days to complete. Ten hours or so on the faces and another six or so to sculpt and paint the sides. http://leftmusing.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-thing-cake.html  |

I would love to watch the 1984 version for the first time on Bluray in my home theater. Midnight showing, no lights, cranked up. Best horror movie ever made. |
