Tainted

Tainted is a 1988 U.S. motion picture written and directed by Orestes Matacena and starring Shari Shattuck. The movie is a low-budget suspense drama about Cathy (Shattuck) a young school teacher married to the owner of a crematorium. The movie is centered on Cathy's attempt to cover-up the murder of an intruder who attempted to rape her. The cover up of the rape is due to the man that raped her being her ex-husband in the movie.

    Tainted was an American comic book one-shot, created and written by Jamie Delano and illustrated by Al Davison. The comic debuted in February 1995, under the DC/Vertigo label, as part of the "Vertigo Voices" series of one-shots.

    The work in itself was really more similar to the classic literature of the 18th and 19th centuries, and could be described as a darker version of a Kafkaesque short story.

    Voices

    The Vertigo Voices sub-imprint was an early attempt by Vertigo to allow its creators freedom in producing creator-owned "distinctive one-shot stories", or as Julian Darius described them "renegade short blasts, acts of artistic terrorism." Under a specially-designed issue-header (along the top, rather than the normal Vertigo side-banner), the Vertigo Voices specials were owned by their creators.

    Tainted was to have been the third release of the initial three titles (a fourth - Bizarre Boys - never saw print; The Eaters was not part of the initial line-up), but became the second (after Peter Milligan and Duncan Fegredo's Face) when Grant Morrison and Philip Bond's Kill Your Boyfriend was delayed.

    Tainted

    by: By A Thread

    I won't loose but I lay myself out
    And I'll never understand
    Will I talk to you again, now
    I try to reach what's mine I won't lie and I won't back
    down
    You seem so distant each time we stray
    I won't deny the places I've been I feel
    I won't deny the faces I've seen I feel
    Tainted
    I see you with that grin that takes me in, and I won't
    let go
    Will I fall for you again? Now
    I try to reach the day, I won't lie I won't back down
    You seem so different each time we stray
    I won't deny the places I've been I feel
    I won't deny the faces I've seen I feel
    Tainted
    I wait here and reach the sky
    Wait here
    But you don't see
    I won't deny the places I've been I feel
    I won't deny the faces I've seen I feel
