Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 10 – The Brood (1979)
I’ll get back to the franchise reviews tomorrow but, for today, I am looking at one of the Cronenberg films that I had yet to watch. I had just recently […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 8 – Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)
This is it. The Final Friday. At least for me. After this there would also be Jason X, Freddy vs. Jason, and the Friday the 13th reboot. I have seen […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 9 – We’re All Going to the World’s Fair (2021)
Taking a break from the major franchise film reviews for a couple days and came across this movie randomly. I knew nothing about it going in but saw that it […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 7 – Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan
Since I’ve already reviewed Part 7 of the series in HOLY SHIT 2014? Goddamn, how long have I been doing these reviews? Anyway, Jason fights the generic off brand version […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 6 – Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives
Aw, hell yeah. The unstoppable, undead murder machine finally arrives in all his gory glory. After everyone unsurprisingly hated the previous film’s attempt at passing the mask to someone new […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 5 – Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985)
Jason died in the previous “final” chapter of this series but Paramount will be damned if a little thing like that will stop them from milking a profitable franchise. I […]
System Mastery 236 – Stealing Stories for the Devil
The customary three great blessings of Ween to each and every one of you! Okay, so this game isn’t especially scary. By now you should have recognized that we may […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 4 – Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984)
Time to look at the comedically optimistically titled “Final Chapter” of the series where they finally stopped fucking around and let Jason kill someone with an axe. Yes! I guess […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 3 – Friday the 13th: Part 3 (1982)
Back again we go to the Friday the 13th series. Part 3 is notable for several things in the franchise. Foremost among them is that now, 3 movies in, Jason […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 2 – Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)
This year, I’ll be taking a look at some of the iconic horror movie franchises that I’ve only seen small bits of. Friday the 13th is one of the series […]
Horrortoberfest ’22 Day 1 – Barbarian (2022)
It’s a brand new year and a brand new start to Horrortoberfest. Starting off the festivities this October is a film currently still in theaters and with a pretty hefty […]
Movie Mastery – An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000)
A sequel of sorts to the excellent A Goofy Movie, this film sees Max going off to college. This is such a big life change that the characters all seem […]
Expounded Universe 225 – A Waywa With Words
Well, it may have been a bit, but dang it we aren’t continuing the intriguing tale of Lando in jail, Rokur Gepta in monologue, and Klyn Shanga and his motley […]
System Mastery 235 – Ray Winninger’s Underground
Hurray, one of those edgy 90s games where people have superpowers but aren’t superheroes! You know, like the other ones? This one at least has an interesting angle of entry […]
Movie Mastery – Barbarian Queen (1985)
Part of the larger “Roger Corman goes to Argentina” Cinematic Universe. Just be aware, this one has a lot of rape in it and is deeply uncomfortable to watch.
Expounded Universe 224 – Back to Back Sabacc
Finally some quality time with Rokur Gepta, who is rapidly shaping up into one of those villains who already knew you were going to do that, which might suck, but […]
Expounded Universe 223 – Twisted Steel, Leather Toilet
Next book! And whoa, this one starts out with the libertarian coming on strong. Man, how did I not notice this when I read these at 14?
System Mastery 234 – Apocalypse World
Wait, from Psi World to Apocalypse World? Two worlds? One network family? Oh right, I should probably mention that because we both have been down for a bit with the […]
System Mastery 233 – Psi World
Back to the old psionic grind! This game has almost exactly two whole paragraphs of story. Everything else we’ve had to glean from the margins and unusually informative rules. Wanna… […]
