Mr. Jackal and Doctor Hound

A little rest from photoshop. Here is a link to a youtube video of The Last Forty Seconds of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - nice collagey goth thing. In a similarly spooky vein, just saw the Blink episode of The current Dr. Who. It's brilliant - combines the conventions of Japanese horror films as lifted by Western Cinema with the jaunty Dr. Who sensibility. A very clever script, which effectively calls out the whole romantic artist thing in an early scene (and I don't think I'm the only one):

Heroine: I like old things things because they're sad.

Friend about turn from a character into a plot point: What's good about sad?

Heroine: Sad is happy for deep people.

Heh.
