Bizarre is a monthly publication that specialises in the weird, strange and downright horrid.

It can be purchased from most newsagents and shopping chains and costs £3.30/month and runs at 13 editions per year.
It can also be purchased on subscription which, of course, will give you a nice discount on the face price :)

If you've not purchased this magazine before and are not sure where to find it - look in the Mens Interest sections or on/near the top shelves!

The magazine's content concentrates heavily on the more peculiar and shocking things in life and it's not uncommon to have features on extreme body modification, weird murders and some of the stranger fetishes about.

And then there are the models!

Bizarre boasts a fine field of some of the hottest female fetish models and glamour models in the business.

It is not unusual to have stunners such as Bianca Beauchamp gracing the cover in a barely there latex number.

Each issue has a centre spread containing one or more shoots from the cover model and you can be guaranteed some fantastic shots, outfits and eyecandy.

The magazine is split down into various sections:

To start off with you have 10 or so pages of weird and wild photos from the four corners of the globe.
Whether it's 'funny' deaths or scarily-hairy women it's all there!

Moving on to the next section you stumble across the reader letters and art/tattoo submissions.
This can be one of the tamer areas of the magazine but there's always something interesting to read about and laugh about, invariably.

Following on from the theme of the 'readers' you fall face first into the Bizarre Ultravixens. This 5 or 6 page feature is teaming with the faces (+ more!) of the gorgeous readers and a little information on what they like to ..get up to.
Each month the best entry wins a nice little goody bag, and speaking from experience, I can say it's nice when a little box marked 'Bizarre' turns up on your doorstep!

Once you've made your way past the Bizarre Ultravixens you'll find the real fun.
There is feature on feature of sick and wonderful people - ranging from a photographer with a penchant for getting his models to roll around with squid and octopi (aka Genki) to interviews with some of the more..interesting people in life.

Next in line is the model feature. The centre spread and the surrounding pages are host to the aforementioned horde of gorgeous photos of that editions cover girl.
The theme always tends to lean toward latex fetish and bondage but it's always good fun to have a stare at.

Toward the end of the magazine comes the reviews section where you will find all the latest releases in music, film and gaming reviewed.
This sometimes feels like a bit of an add on and a bit un-needed but I'm sure there are plenty out there that enjoy it and find it a worth while read.

..Well, that's it I think.
I think I've probably gone off a bit in the wrong direction as I always find too much to say about this magazine but in summary:

If you enjoy the strange, sick and slightly wrong you are likely to enjoy Bizarre - if you don't already!

Summary: Well worth the read/staring if you like a bit of the bizarre!
