Channel Zero Episode 2 Review: “I’ll Hold Your Hand”

Warning: This article contains discussion of mental illness, and images of blood. Last week, I wrote about some of the slightly stiff dialogue (or maybe it was the delivery) that marked Channel Zero’s first episode. As is often the case with fledgling…

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse – Review

I decided to go back and watch Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse this week because of the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales on PlayStation 5. In this movie, Miles Morales takes on the Spider-Man role, and must learn how to use his…

The Pathless (PC) Review

Short version: I’m glad to say I was right about my early “warm fuzzies” about this title from Giant Squid. Having enjoyed Abzu, I didn’t think I could really go wrong here; but still, it’s a joy to see my hopes and…

Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin (Switch) Review

Lisa and I love farming games. Harvest Moon, Rune Factory, and any sort of game with a farming element usually catch my attention in one form or another. However, Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin caught my attention in more than one regard.…

Doctor Who Series 4 “The Doctor’s Daughter” – Review

Right, after last week‘s short, “I hate the companions” tangent, I need to go on a bit of a rant. I’ve spent the week hearing, “Oh, but Clara is the best companion, she’s much better than everyone else.” Shtoom! I will make you…

Planes, Trains and Automobiles – Review

After a long and terrible year, America is getting ready for Thanksgiving. Due to the timeliness of it, I thought now would be a great time to watch the hilarious classic Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. I hadn’t seen Planes, Trains, and Automobiles…

Ray’s The Dead (PS4) Review

Channel Zero Episode 1 Review: “You Have to Go Inside”

First of all: I’m in trouble. My partner is sharing their Shudder library with me. I have so much new, old and in-between spooky material to watch now. This is a distress signal. Send help. Okay, I’m kidding, but now that we’ve…

Infamous: First Light (PS4) Review

It’s been a few years since I fired up Infamous: Second Son, but I recall having a blast. With tight controls, a sprawling Seattle open world, and fantastic visuals for the PS4’s launch window, it still deserves to be in the discussion of…

G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout (Switch) Review

I’ll admit, I don’t have as much experience with G.I. Joe as some might expect. I have seen some of the cartoons and my mom is a big fan, but other than watching the recent movies, I don’t have much history with…
