Zombie Boy

Rick Genest is turning himself into a zombie. So far, more than 24 hours of tattoos – costing over £4,075 Canadian – have got him halfway there and made him a minor celebrity on the internet, where people can’t decide if he’s a body modification visionary or mentally ill sicko.

  4. i hate that people are so ignorant to say that this guy will never get a job.
    how do you know that? while yes, some jobs won't want that, who's to say he'll never find a job.

  5. Interesting. Similiar to Schism video by Adam Jones.

    From a source close to Adam I have got information that Adam and his band (Tool) have occupied studio because of "unexpected creativity explosion equal to one more than a seven years old".

    Sounds like a explanation for this pictures motive.

  7. I think I would have done it all in full color, rotting flesh, ligaments, muscle tissue, organs. I like it. I don't know that I'll ever tattoo my face, everything else is pretty much spoken for, so I guess that's puts him up one step nuttier than me, and I mean that with utmost respect! Slainte!

  8. Anon You hope someone will kill him? Because he expresses himself through his body. You really are quite sad to make such a statement about someone that you don't know because of his tattoos. You might not agree with them or ever want to do something similar but wishing him dead because of how he looks shows a certain lack of brain power.

    I think he is expressing himself beautifully and while I would never go to that extreme with my tattoos its his choice and judging him on that choice is idiotic and juvenile.

  9. What an idiot. Sure, it looks cool in a strange way, but that's just today. In 10-15 years, it will look like crap, the details will fade and move south, and between then and now, this kid can't get a job outside of a tattoo parlor.

    He should have asked for his mommy to hug him more. The boy needs serious therapy. Sure, sure, say it is art, but it is only art today. It is will be ugly tomorrow.

  10. Whatever you say about people that have full body tattoos, this was at least done with some talent. I don't like all of it, but the skeleton and musculature are very well done. Whoever did the art is quite good.
