Luana Vecchio, the award-winning creator of erotic horror series Lovesick, and popular punk band NIIS have teamed up to give fans a taste of dominatrix Domino’s twisted world in a new song and music video inspired by the series. Directed by Meriel O’Connell and starring NIIS lead singer Mimi Doe, the music video for “Lovesick” features Doe as a seductive yet terrifying dominatrix, alluding to Mother Demon Domino, luring in her prey. Domino’s origins will soon be explored in Vecchio’s new miniseries Doll Parts: A Lovesick Tale, part coming-of-age and part horror-thriller, kicking off this December. A new sneak peek of the first issue, shown below, reveals how the tale begins.

In Lovesick, dark web subscribers pay a high price to be maimed, tortured, and killed by ruthless and irresistible dominatrix Domino. This is what they call “love” in the Lovesick Club. But as Domino faces emerging threats and mounting pressure from a needy audience, what price will she have to pay for success in this literally cutthroat world? And what will she have to become to survive? Vecchio invites you into a digital underworld of cannibalism and bloody neon to explore the limits of consent, love, and idolatry in one of the most erotic and extreme stories in recent years.

Vecchio’s next venture into the Lovesick world, the upcoming Doll Parts: A Lovesick Tale miniseries, sheds the latex to reveal the haunting and tragic story of what first led Domino down her dark path. The new four-part miniseries, set in the 2000s, is a must-read for both seasoned fans and newcomers to the disturbed universe of Lovesick. It follows a twelve-year-old girl called Madeleine who dreads the idea of growing up. She fears becoming like the cruel older girls or facing the contempt of her devoutly religious mother. But most of all, she doesn’t want to become a target for the monsters that are out there, hiding in plain sight. However, a stomach-churning discovery forces Madeleine to confront the harsh reality that growing up isn’t a choice—it’s survival. As she is thrust into a world of perverted killers and unsavory websites, she has to come to terms with her own dark obsessions.
