19 jul 2019 12:32

One of the more iconic pieces is the 1983 horror novel Pet Sematary that was turned into a horror thriller and hit the screens in 1989. By this century, both the novel and the film are widely recognized as classics, and with the current “age of revival” it’s no shocker that Pet Sematary hit the silver screens once more.

World War II is known to be the deadliest conflict in human history.

If you are not familiar with Maschinen Krieger (abbreviated as Ma.K) here is a little bit of background. The franchise was started by Kow Yokoyama in the 1980’s. Yokoyama-san was a scratch-build modeller, artist and sculptor. Among his works he built machines of war that would fight in the 29th century, but took their visual cues from early 19th century weaponry and the early NASA space program. All his models were pieced together from numerous kits.
