Necropolist

It’s reassuring to know that while there’s always a scheduled event in Toronto (World Naked Bike Ride, Rendezvous With Madness Film Festival, Nuit Blanche, Winterlicious, dandy bicycle polo, and pillow fights), the citizenry of this town refuses to spend the intervening hours sitting still.
Consider, then, this dashingly handsome couple seen recently strolling westward on Queen Street West at Roncesvalles. The twosome was on its way to a gay affair—of that we can be sure, but it’s worth noting that Toronto’s Zombie Walk isn’t until October 19. It’s possible that they might have had something to do with George A. Romero’s new film being shot in town, but whatever the reason, it’s nice for even the undead to show their true colours during the interim; it’s what keeps the city alive.

    ummm, is there a finger covering up part of that photo illustration?
    if so, that’s pretty hilarious.

    Land and Diary of the Dead were absolutely terrible, I’ll pass on whatever he’s doing next.

    These two were dressed up for fun, as part of the Rue Morgue’s Festival of Fear that happened over the weeekend.
    They were out walking the streets Saturday night as they attended the official party named “THe Night That Dripped Blood”, where they won 1st place in the costume contest.

    There any pics of them?

    Thanks to c0rpse & reetdoontoon for the hook ups. I didn’t have a camera with me that day & realized (like a tonne of bricks on my head) just yesterday, that the woman had her hair down. So much for photographic memory.

    Nice.
