We’re eight days into the month of October, and if you’re a certain kind of movie lover, you’re probably taking in a lot of horror. And if you’re a certain kind of horror movie lover, there’s a pretty good chance your October viewing queue includes Halloween, Friday the 13th, Psycho, Nightmare on Elm Street — y’know, the classics.
Well, good news: Marie Bergeron, one of the best of the regular contributors to our favorite pop-culture lovin’ art gallery, Gallery1988, recently opened the exhibit “Chop Chop,” which pays tribute to (among other favorites) the best of those classic knife- and axe-wielders. We picked out a few of our favorites for those of you who aren’t in the L.A. area; if you are, swing by Gallery1988 at Melrose and Poinsettia, or check out (and order) some of Bergeron’s work on their site.
