Twisted NYC Weekend Picks

Friday February 10, 2006
Overdosing on Valentine-related sticky sweetness? Explore your darker side with these fun NYC weekend activities.

corpsebride.jpg"The Corpse Bride" DVD Signing: Meet twisted genius and master storyteller Tim Burton at the Virgin Megastore in Union Square on Saturday, February 11. He'll be signing DVDs of his Oscar-nominated animated film, "The Corpse Bride." It's the perfect gift for any slightly twisted Valentine.
Virgin Megastore, 52 E. 14th St. at 4th Ave., February 11 at 1 pm.

The Terrible Toy Fair III: Stop by CBGB's 313 Gallery for an alternative toy fair/art show sponsored by the Dollhaus Art Gallery. The bloody, fishnetted, and otherwise creepified dolls and toys are sure to keep you up nights. It's just the kind of place where you might run into Tim Burton after his DVD signing.
February 10 - March 10

Bodies...The Exhibition: This exhibit at the South Street Seaport is a fascinating look at the amazing human body and how it works. But it's not for the squeamish. Displays include 22 real human bodies and more than 260 real organs.
