the aesthetic of american far right christianity is horrifying

[creaturey]

run-down signs screaming about hell in the middle of nowhere is my aesthetic though

[kaci3po]

You don’t know true pants-shitting fear until you’re driving in the middle of nowhere, not a single sign of civilization as far as the eye can see, haven’t seen another living being in three hours, and then out of nowhere suddenly looms a half-destroyed barn with the words “HELL IS REAL” painted on what remains of the roof.

[fantastigasmical]

I’ll be honest, you could say most of these were from a horror game and I wouldn’t doubt you. 

[maybewareoldnoonefindthis]

Implying America isn’t a horror game lately.

[rubynemesis]

America isn’t a game. It is just a horror.

#i feel like you would appreciate this

YEP.

[theexistentiallyqueer]

hey so fun fact about that last one

it’s located right by the I-75 highway and anyone driving in or out of cincinnati could see it from the road and it was horrifying the first time i saw it because i felt like i was about to die.

the statue was called king of kings, but i only ever heard it referred to as touchdown jesus. just imagine yourself kicking a football through those lofty open arms…..ohio 1, satan 0.

in 2010 touchdown jesus was very sadly struck by lightning and burned down, possibly because so many heathens were calling him touchdown jesus and imagining playing football with the lord. or possibly because that’s just what happens when you build a giant styrofoam and fiberglass statue next to an artificial pond on a hill in the middle of rural ohio.

fortunately our good friends down in englewood have contingency plans for god’s wrath and the end of the world, so they built a new statue named lux mundi. unfortunately, lux mundi is not as amped to play football.

but he does look like he’s down for hugs.

RIP, touchdown jesus. we miss you. 😢

[glamourcat28]

The skeletal remains of touchdown Jesus is one of the more horrifying things I’ve seen.

[coffeebuddha]

There’s a now-deteriorating mosaic in Huntsville, AL that all the locals affectionately call eggbeater Jesus.

[corytheexplory]

This is Wheat Jesus. He lives on I-70 near Colby, KS and we love him.

Inside Banksy’s Alternative and Grim Version of Disneyland

Welcome to Dismaland, where life isn’t always a fairy tale! Located at the seaside resort of Weston super Mare in the UK, Dismaland is a sinister, dystopian and less glamorous version of Disneyland. As his most ambitious project, Banksy is clearly portraying his authentic views of the famous institution and the “evil” it posses. It is anti-capitalist, dull and clinical modification.

Inside the 2.5 acre site, you will find a grim fairytale castle, a boat pond full of asylum seekers, and other satirical oddities, such as an anarchist training boot camp.

Among its 18 attractions is the Grim Reaper, the sight of Cinderella falling from her pumpkin carriage, and a woman who is morbidly attacked by seagulls.

The exhibition includes pieces from over 50 artists from 17 different countries, which include artists such  Damien Hirst, Jenny Holzer and Jimmy Cauty.

You can see Dismaland’s in all its grim glory this weekend, starting on August 22, 2015.
