Japanese college student Takena makes splatterpunk claymation movies with death metal soundtracks. The above collection of clips from his work is to promote an upcoming claymation event. For more, may I suggest his masterpiece, Chainsaw Maid, which Mark posted about before. Takena's YouTube Channel (via Ask Earache)

    I remember seeing Chainsaw Maid on here a while back. Ahhhh, claymation gore.

    Here’s the guy’s website, but there’s probably the same stuff on his Youtube channel: http://www.eonet.ne.jp/~y-nagao/Gallery.htm

    Hmm… why would someone be that disturbed? THIS is why social scientists get angry at, like, pop culture with it’s violence and such.

    I agree with the “-punk” thing on this.

    Wouldn’t “SlayMation” be a better name anyway?
