Psychedelic Horror - with Tool collaborator, FX maestro, and dark artist Chet Zar

This video is my conversation with Chet Zar, who spent 20 years working as a horror special effects expert on Hollywood films like Hellboy and The Ring, before working with the band Tool on the music videos for Schism and Vicarious, as well as the visual FX for their live stage show.
Chet currently runs The Dark Art Society which is a collective of horror artists, and he also hosts the Dark Art Society Podcast.
In this conversation we talk about all this stuff, as well as our mutual interest in psychedelics and appreciation of horror movies.

Appreciating the full swpectrum is enlightenment. To be like he in whom sufferring and glory are indistinguishable

I love Amicus. Vault of Horror is another fun one of theirs. The Beast Must Die is a great one too, and one of the few non anthology films. This was such an enjoyable conversation! Thanks to both of you.

[@AdeptusPsychonautica]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 😊

100% agree with your opinion of Color Out Of Space. It is mesmerising, psychedelic and beautifuly weird.

[@jaynotmusic]

What did you think of Midsommar?
