Imagine suddenly awaking to find yourself trapped in a disgusting industrial bathroom and chained to rusty pipes. A rotting corpse loosely clutching a handgun and a mini-cassette recorder lays between you and some strange man that’s  chained to the opposite side of the room. You and the stranger both soon discover cassette tapes placed in your pockets, labeled “Play Me”, which delivers some disturbing messages……..

If this sounds familiar, then you’ve probably seen the 2004 Australian horror film, Saw. Since the films first appearance in movie theaters almost five years ago, the Saw movie has built a strong film franchise that includes a total of five films and a sixth film set to release in October 2009.

Mizzee Customs recently created this custom sneaker based on the original Saw film, which he calls, the “Saw” Dunk High. The sneaker features a black & white leather upper with black on black chains that wrap around the front to the back, black eyelets, croc skin lace buckles and a pair of silver door knocker-esque rings on the heel. The right shoe displays artwork based on the reversed bear trap Amanda wore (which also was on the first promotional movie poster), and the left shoe has artwork depicting the trademark Jigsaw Puppet.  See detailed pictures, the movie trailer, and poster of the first Saw movie.

Our friendly neighborhood Spider-man, time after time finds himself pitted against some of the most notorious evil doers to walk the busy streets of NYC. At this moment, several may come to mind, Sandman, Dr. Octopus, Green Goblin, or even the Kingpin. However, none of them can hold a candle to a certain super villain that matches our trusted Webslinger’s power, tic for tack. This menacing figure is none other then the result of an alien symbiote and Peter Parker’s archrival, Eddie Brock, combining as one to form the villainous creature known as Venom.

In honor of this sinister character, Twitch Customs designed & created this custom sneaker that he calls, the “The Real Venom” Dunk High, as a reference to the misrepresentation that he felt was displayed by the recent Venom Dunk High release.

The sneaker features a textured black leather base that imitates the gooey, almost liquid-like symbiote form trying to consume the shoe. An epic image of Venom rearing his jaws, flashing his razor sharp teeth, and extending his long salivating tongue covers the sides and heel. In addition, detailed blue/white spiderwebs fill the side panels and toe box, hints of  red are found on the sole/inner lining/tongue, and there’s  a pair of black laces added to finish them off.

“The Real Venom” Nike Dunk High is now available for purchase in a size 11 U.S. If anyone is interested in buying this custom sneaker then please contact Twitch Customs on his Myspace page or via his email address listed below.
