Hey all-

This may seem like just another Anne Frank killing Zombie Nazis video, but it features one of my very favorite people as Anne, so watch the video, comment, and repost as much as you can!

Also, give them the thumbs up so they can win the contest!

Taking the Fun Out of Having Superpowers Since 2006
 
A friend of mine recently broke my streak of having no ideas for this column by asking what super power I would have. If you are anything like me, you walk around all day with that question already answered, as well as what 3 wishes you would ask for. I often imagine being confronted by a genie or a wish-granting demon and asking the giant, floating incorporeal supernatural being pull up a chair while we go over in detail, the specifics of my three requests. So I already knew exactly what superpower I wanted. I’ve always known, ever since I’ve been a child-but it’s not always been the same power.

Movie reviews with BBT critic Jef Taylor

In the atomic age, moviemakers convinced us that radiation was going to spawn gargantuan monsters–oversized grasshoppers, ants, even rabbits! The truth, of course, is that radioactive material doesn’t create monsters, it merely kills all living things slowly and horribly–a scary prospect, but not one that can be the boogeyman for a 90 minute movie. Then came Prophecy: the Monster Movie (not to be confused with The Prophecy, the Christopher Walken serial killing angel series of movies). Inspired as much by Silent Spring as by Jaws, the teratogenic element in this late seventies scare flick is mercury poisoning. These days we know that mercury merely builds up in the fatty tissues of animals, eventually killing them slowly and horribly, but at the time it must have seen as likely a monster-maker as anything.

Musings #10: Why Not a Talking Motorcycle?

Filed Under Musings | Leave a Comment

Occasionally when posting to BBT, I have the privilege of helping our readers take their first step into a larger world. I’ll do that today by including a link to the 1999 Ben Stiller / Jack Black television pilot, ‘Heat Vision and Jack’ about a talking motorcycle which sounds like Owen Wilson.

But first, I’ll comment that usually at this time in my week I’m posting Flash Fiction Contest Stories, but there are no new entries this week. Come on people, we need some competition here! No one likes to win by default. The contest runs until the third week of March, the topic is Celebrity, and it’s 1,000 words with a sci fi/horror/fantasy theme and a satirical bent. Format it like the other entries and send it here: bbtmagazine@gmail.com. Winners get our praise and somehting cool!

Now, the Awesome:
