EVIL DEAD II (1987)

Alexander McQueen’s fw 2001 show was a truly grotesque piece of grande theatre. The show entitled “What a Merry Go Round”, was presented on giant carousels almost as if taken from a circus back in the 20th century. However, instead of joyous children playing on them, they were haunted by models, who pole danced and walked across them as if it was their last stand. The eerie imagery was expanded by genius makeup by Val Garland, which made the models look like sad and morbid clowns. The clothes found inspiration in a mix of Victorian and 20th century fashions. The show had a number of now iconic looks, like the black and white gown worn by a model who pulled a gold skeleton across the floor, which was attached to her leg.

CAT’S EYE (1985)

At around 9PM on the 21st of July, 1995, Veronica Gonzales ran from her Chula Vista apartment with the lifeless body of her 4-year-old niece, Genny Gonzales, in her arms. Genny had lived with her aunt and her aunt’s husband, Ivan Gonzales, as her family had rejected her as a child. Her birth mother, Mary Rojas, lived in Corona with her six other children. Genny’s father was in prison for child molestation.

Genny’s aunt and uncle were on welfare and addicted to methamphetamine. Nevertheless, they offered to “care” for Genny. When the young girl moved in, the two bedroom apartment was already crowded with two adults and six other children. From the moment she moved in, Genny fate was sealed and she suffered unimaginable abuse at the hands of those who she believed were there to care for her.

Genny was forced to sleep in a wooden box or behind a door on a blanket covered with blood and faeces. Veronica would often hang Genny in the closet by her hands “to scare her,” she would burn her cheeks with a blow dryer. Her hair was burned off her head and she was frequently beat and bound with handcuffs. When Genny died, she was covered head to toe in bruises and wounds. On the day she died, she was submerged in boiling hot water. Her skin had peeled off her body. The couple waited hours while the girl slowly died before seeking assistance.

Ivan and Veronica Gonzales were sentenced to death. They were the first husband and wife in California history to go to death row together. Genny was initially buried in an unmarked grave but when the case was documented in the media, locals were so moved that they donated money for a headstone.
