GIVEAWAY COMING SOON: Kafkaesque 80s throwback horror, Cronenberg meets Orwell — WEAPONIZED, publishing Oct 31

This Halloween Inkshares is publishing Zac Thompson's dystopian horror novel WEAPONIZED, winner of the 2016 CryptTV horror fiction contest. For fans of It Follows, WEAPONIZED is a Kafkaesque eighties throwback horror that subverts the slasher genre with a refreshing take on body horror, and the twisted, violent, burgeoning sexuality that underpins the genre. WEAPONIZED is Thompson's debut novel.

Thompson is a writer from Prince Edward Island. He is best known for his critically acclaimed comic book series The Dregs. His work has also appeared in IGN, The Huffington Post, and VICE.

"A horror genre level-up akin to the twisted classics of Clive Barker with the social relevance of It Follows. Zac Thompson crafts an uncomfortably dystopian world with a sense of dread that mounts with each page. Engaging, twisted and drenched in gore, this is a perfectly crafted nightmare." —Kate Krantz, CryptTV

"Dystopia done right. Cronenberg meets Orwell in this terrifying vision of the future." —Mark Alan Miller, writer of Hellraiser, Next Testament, and The Steam Man

"Zac Thompson brings body horror to The River's Edge where it rightfully belongs. If you've ever fathomed Cronenberg updating The Scarlet Letter, or have dreamed of Greg Araki rebooting Street Trash, you still won't be prepared for Weaponized." —Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Rest Area

Synopsis: 

After one too many injuries, hockey enforcer Doug Glatt (Seann William Scott) is forced to give up his aspirations of going to the big show and settle into a buttoned down career as an insurance salesman at the urging of his pregnant wife Eva (Alison Pill). However, Doug can't resist the siren call of the Highlanders, so he sets course to reclaim his former glory.

A Jay Baruchel film, Goon: Last of the Enforcers brings back the all–star cast that made the original so funny. Seann William Scott (American Pie) stars as Doug Glatt, along with Alison Pill (The Newsroom), Wyatt Russell (Everybody Wants Some), Jason Jones (The Detour), and with Elisha Cuthbert (24), Kim Coates (Sons of Anarchy) and Liev Schreiber.
