Fanfic records are quite common in the anime community, given the wide array of iconic characters in a series or manga. Tatsuki Fujimoto’s cultural phenomenon Chainsaw Man is one such anime featuring a number of deeply flawed and relatable characters, inspiring a sheer volume of fanfics. But any guesses for who might be in the top tier with the most fanfics recorded?

Well, the titular character, Denji is quite a predictable guess, but there is another popular name alongside the protagonist that might just surprise everyone. It’s none other than Aki Hayakawa, who has surprisingly claimed the fanfic crown, surpassing the likes of other notable characters Makima, Power, and Himeno.

With the death of horror film legend Christopher Lee, the last of the legendary honor guard of horror has passed on. He was part of an elite group that created the horror genre. Lee’s passing is a reminder that it’s been a long time since we had a new horror film superstar. Is the day of the horror film specialist gone forever? Where are the big-screen boogie-men for the 21st century?

Once upon a time there were a group of actors, known as the ‘screen boogiemen’ who created the horror film/monster movie genre (starting in Universal Studios and later in Hammer Studios.) They were specialists who understood the psychology and performance style of horror cinema and became legends in the industry. The first was silent film star Lon Chaney Sr. (Phantom of the Opera, London After Midnight, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, the Unholy Three, the Monster,...

. In pictures: The winners

6.33pm: It's the Orange British Academy Film Awards, live as you like from London's Royal Opera House. Outside the stage door, the rain is falling and the chauffers cup their hands to light their fags. Two starlets pick their way through the puddles while over on the corner, the busker is keening his way through the Eagles' back catalogue. "And in the master's chamber, they gather for the feast," he sings at the starlets. "They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast." I'm guessing this refrain will run like a loop through my brain until the last prize is dolled out.

When it comes to Halloween rock 'n' roll, Alice Cooper's pretty much right at the top of nearly everyone's party playlist... and this year the shock-rock overlord has really been spreading the seasonal spirit around with lots of cool projects, including a "Halloween Hootenanny" tour with Rob Zombie and Murderdolls.

Alice Cooper is just all over the damn news these days, and I for one am glad to see he's still bringing the almighty old-school shock rock on an epic scale. The main run of his "Theatre of Death" world tour has concluded, except for two special UK shows this Halloween... but when Alice wrapped the tour for 2009, he had a camera crew along at his last London show to capture the mayhem. That footage has now been compiled into a DVD, and it'll be arriving in plenty of time for your own Halloween festivities. Hit the jump for more details... including the full track list! Theatre Of Death: Live At Hammersmith 2009 was shot at London's historic Hammersmith Apollo, and the blood-spattered set features most of...

This Saturday, Halloween night, is the Theatre of Death's annual "Trick & Treat" show. All audience members will receive a goodie bag full of sweets, treats, and tickets to other shows around town. Though not required, audience members are encouraged to come in costume, and at the end of the evening the best costumed audience member will receive a prize (hats and headdresses must be removed during showtime as to not block other audience members sight of the show).

You won't find too many acts out there more perfectly suited to Halloween than shock-rock idol Alice Cooper, so it's actually surprising we haven't seen something like this sooner: The Coop has completed work on a special Halloween single for his fans, entitled Keepin' Halloween Alive. In the official announcement, he shared some encouraging words about embracing the Halloween spirit year 'round… but you already do that, don't you?
