Film, Special Effects and Make-up, stop motion animation, cool weaponry, poker, old school hardcore wrestling, good music (I firmly believe that you can alter a persons mood by playing a certain piece of music or song, I do it to myself all the time). People who are creative, artistic, and self-reliant.
This poor soul.

Anything and almost everything by Joe Lansdale, biographies, 18th century death books, Stephen King, Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, Andrew Vachss, Anthony Burgess, many many others. I love me some reading, as all good nerds do! :P
Dick Smith, Rick Baker, Tom Savini, Gerald Gergely, Rob Bottin, Stan Winston, Max Rockatansky, Marc Dacascos, Eric Draven, Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Bruce & Brandon Lee. Are they heroes? Maybe not, maybe some of them aren't even real people, but I admire what they have all contributed to a passion or belief of mine, be it the arts or a moralistic view of the world.
