Der Rattengott v.2.00

Psychocandyman

Another homage to the Jesus and Mary Chain with a touch of Hitchcock and horror mythology.

Bauhaus drag

I think macho Bauhaus visual language needs a little bit of a feminine touch. (Just in case: I'm refering to Weimar art school not the band.)

The Jesus and Mary Chain

Dedicated to the resurrection of my favorite band: The Jesus and Mary Chain.

J Edgar [v.2.00]

J Edgar Hoover in drag [version 2.0].

Der Rattengott

Inspired by the great ex-Yugoslavian horror movie "The Rat Savior" directed by Krsto Papić.
"Izbavitelj" is the original Serbo-Croat title. "Der Rattengott" is the German version of the title. (The Rat God).

Star tits

A couple of metal stars in the place of the nipples.

"Ich Bin Werwolf" Katharina Hartmann

A line form Lars Von Trier's 1991 movie, Europa (Zentropa).
Katharina Hartmann (a character played by Barbara Sukowa) admits at on point to Leopold Kessler (Jean-Marc Barr): "Ich bin Werwolf" (I am werewolf). Werewolves were Nazi partisans who tried to obstruct the American invasion of Germany immediately after the II WW.
It is a very slippery and tricky question of patriotism. Katharina was not a Nazi, she just wanted to defy her father.
I find this movie extremely interesting in terms of one country's meddling with the affairs of another. (Can we really understand what are the real troubles of other people?)
On the intimate scale (a clueless and pragmatic American guy falls in love with a bitter and proud German girl) I used another dialogue from this movie in a graphic work Zentropa Balkan.

Bela's Not Dead

In 1909, Bela Lugosi played the role of Jesus Christ in a theatrical Passion Play. He later became famous for his role of Count Dracula of course. Add "Bela Lugosi is Dead" song by Bauhaus to it. And that's it...

Buysexual

I remember the phrase being used by Eric Idle in "Splitting Heirs" (I think) describing his sexual preference. "I'm buysexual. I need to buy sex".
A sort of pharmaceutical look with a $ sign instead of the usual ®.

James Mason (as god)

I'm a huge fan of Eddie Izzard.
He often impersonates James Mason, particularly in the role of god.
