Become an Official Member of the Dark Art Society! https://www.patreon.com/DarkArtSociety This week I check in with artist Dan Colonna (If you have not heard Dan's story battling glioblastoma - commonly known as a brain tumor- check out Ep. 168). We speak about him beating the odds after 10 years, his recent issues with a persistent skull infection and subsequent decision to go into palliative care, reaching milestones from month to month, how his 6+ brain surgeries in 2023 have continued to affect his artwork, as well as him spending his days painting and getting the most out of his life. Dan's story is very heavy, but he has an amazing attitude about it. We also get into some technical talk later in the episode. Also, a quick life update.

Become an Official Member of the Dark Art Society! https://www.patreon.com/DarkArtSociety This week we are starting 2024 off right by bringing artist Ryan Peterson on to talk about John Carpenter's The Thing! This classic sci fi horror film from 1982 is one of our favorite films of all time and because of that, this is a long episode that gets pretty deep in the weeds on all things John Carpenter and Makeup Effects genius Rob Bottin! Ryan and I worked in the makeup effects industry during the same time back in the day (Ryan even worked for Rob on such films as "Seven" and "Mission Impossible") so I think we have a more nuanced perspective because of it. Plus, Ryan has some inside scoops that I have not heard anywhere else!!! Also, a quick life update.

Mark has created makeup effects for many classics: Evil Dead II, Phantasm II & III, A Nightmare on Elm Street 1, 2 & 3, John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness and many, many more! But we don't talk about makeup effects (much). This interview is all about Mark's truly remarkable series of ghostly events that he and others at the school he was teaching at experienced in the early 2000s. This is a really amazing episode.
