The Revenant infects The Secret World
Take one snip of Hitler's hair, a joybuzzer from Stephen King's IT, and the charred remains of Darth Vader, stir them all together in the Black Cauldron, and you'll cook up the perfect recipe for evil incarnate -- also known as The Secret World's Revenant. MMORPG.com has the scoop on Funcom's newest monster reveal for The Secret World. Conjuring shades of Lord of the Rings' Nazgul and Silent Hill's Pyramid Head, the Revenants are about as dark as they come: cloaked figures wielding black swords and feeding on pain and death. Plus, they get the nifty ability to turn into icky creatures like rats and worms, so chances are they have one of your phobias tucked up their sleeves. Revenants promise to be tough enemies who throw about plague and disease like it's candy, and players will reportedly encounter them in the Maine section of the game. You can check out more pictures of this big nasty in the gallery below! %Gallery-72395%
Pyramid Head resin statue exacts a hefty price
Patient Session Recording Excerpt: Harry Sunderland (12/01/2010) " -- right in the flamingo." "And that's when you realized it was a nightmare, Harry?" "Yes. It was so palpable, like I could feel gravity pulling my stomach out through my feet. And this figure just stands there, watching me flounder and sink into my own house." "And this figure, you say, has very distinct geometric attributes." "He's got a triangle, or maybe a pyramid for a head. Wait. Oh my god. I -- how did I miss this? I'm so stupid!" "Don't be so hard on yourself. Remember, you're here because you may be insane, not because you're a dummy." "Well, I just got back from Japan, and I bought this Trims-made Pyramid Head figure. This thing is a detailed resin statue, doc. It's a Konami Style exclusive and it took them forever to make it." "And where did you put it?" "Right above my bed, on a shelf. I mean, I paid like $344 for it. You have to put that stuff on display." "Why is that, Harry?" "How else are people going to know what elements of popular culture I enjoy?" "Of course. So, tell me about this Pyramid-headed person." "Well, he's from the Silent Hill video games. He's, like, an enigmatic representation of guilt and tore some lady's skin off in the movie. You know ... I'm beginning to think I should have gone for Valtiel. That's what you're thinking, right? This statue hovering over me is messing me up. " "Okay, I'm going to stop your supposed self-diagnosis right there, Harry. This rationalization isn't doing you any good. Let's talk facts: you spent $344 to sleep underneath the creepiest thing in the world. That's worse than the guy who came in here with a Pennywise snuggie." "And what happened to him?" "I told you -- I don't treat dummies."
Silent Hill My Little Ponies are adorable, disturbing
When one conjures up thoughts of Silent Hill, rarely do such thoughts wander in the direction of My Little Pony. That is, unless you're clickclackcat, an enterprising eBay member who readily connected the two incredibly disparate franchises. Currently up for auction are the gruesomely darling ponies seen above, one in the likeness of Pyramid Head, and another made to resemble a member of Alchemilla Hospital's famed nursing staff.If you have eccentric tastes (or a particularly macabre little girl), feel free to place a bid.[Via Hawty McBloggy]Source - eBay: My Little Pony Silent Hill Custom: Zombie NurseSource - eBay: My Little Pony Silent Hill Custom: Pyramid Head
Silent Hill's Pyramid Head appears in Swedish fashion label
While not busy shoving spears through young women or peeling the skin off of ... young women, it seems that SIlent Hill's geometrically-proportioned antagonist, Pyramid Head, moonlights as a fashion model for Swedish clothing label Odeur. His exploits were featured in the company's autumn/winter 2009/2010 Lookbook.You know, we were going to make witty observations about the inclusion of a classic horror figure in a clothing catalog but we just can't bring ourselves to do it. Pyramid helmets? Odeur? Lookbook? This might be our blogger sweatpants talking, but high fashion is impossibly dumb. [Via Kotaku]
Pyramid Head and Robbie the Rabbit in Silent Hill: Homecoming
Fan favorites Pyramid Head and Robbie the Rabbit will apparently be making appearances in the upcoming sequel Silent Hill: Homecoming. Joystiq spotted Pyramid Head at E3 and even has photographic prove, as seen above. The character is meant to be a manifestation of guilt (though one could say all the enemies in Silent Hill fall in that category, but that's a story for a fansite ... ) and has only appeared so far in Silent Hill 2 and the theatrical movie, but his role here is unknown. Robbie the Rabbit first appeared in Silent Hill 3 as the creepy mascot of the amusement park the player is trapped in, as well as Silent Hill: The Room as a doll in Eileen's room. We also have six new screenshots, with all the screwed-up goodness you expect from the franchise. %Gallery-12896%
