Further horrors of Kickstarter.

* This one doesn't really explain what it is. The impression I get is that we're funding a serial killer's serial killing.

* An unsettling horse coloring book.

* Someone who has strong feelings about both Legend of Zelda and Jesus wanted some money to talk about these feelings. Amazingly, he got more than a thousand bucks! But the goal was $5,000.

* Some people who put out a single volume (single issue?) of a Christian comic in 2009 wanted $300,000 to make it into an anime. There's this little bulleted list of people ostensibly "involved" with the project, all with strained descriptions of credentials - except for the animators, who are helpfully identified only as "Japanese animation studio."

These people definitely knew what they were about! I have no idea what went wrong. They say they had Vic Mignogna on board, surely that's all they needed.

I would fund your Kickstarter into researching schadenfreude as an alternative energy source and/or Pocky substitute.
