“Man, RVs are amazing. I can’t believe we’re sitting at a table in a moving vehicle.” Old men teaching young men to hit on women is a time-honored part of masculinity, but it isn’t hard to see the predatory undertones in teaching boys to pursue and charm. Gravity Falls comes at the institution with a man-eating […]

I’m not sure why we like horror games, especially the ones where we aren’t even given the luxury of a weapon. SOMA is a new science fiction game that follows many of the traits shown in previous Frictional games like Amnesia: The Dark Descent, but also makes you feel like a bad human being in […]
Written by Andrew Adams | Art by Rachael Briner | Published by Schismatic Comics Once upon a time, if you wanted to get your own comic book published you would have to jump through a few hoops, work on a few Big Two (Marvel and DC) books and build up enough name recognition to be […]

Doctor Who is back with The Magician’s Apprentice, and while we already know that changes are coming in season 9, I’m sure nobody expected the first episode to start off with such a bang. This is exactly what it did though, which holds great promise for the season to come… The basic premise and most […]
Mark Netter’s Nightmare Code, due for release September 29th on VOD, tells of technology that encompasses the ability to change our behavior. Scary, right!? We spoke to Netter, who comes from a very (not surprisingly) techy background, about his clever new thriller. Was making your own movies always part of the plan? I’ve been a […]

“Are you certain you wish to veto this review?” Avoiding responsibility for his own actions is perhaps Forrest’s most readily identifiable hallmark. Here’s a man who burned his own marriage to the ground on what amounts to a whim and now resents his ex-wife for having broken his heart, a man incapable of recognizing himself […]
“I bet the only thing more horrifying than that sound will be the moment it stops.” Forrest MacNeil is the worst kind of faux-perpetual motion machine. He may run forever, he may in fact be incapable of ceasing to pursue his destructive path, but he needs an incredible amount of fuel to keep going, and his […]
“Try it again. What have you got to lose at this point?” Lucille’s dry words of encouragement toward Forrest’s dad as he shivers and sobs at the prospect of firing yet another arrow at his whey-faced son, already pincushioned with two, might as well be the tagline for the show’s promotional campaign. Forrest has left […]
MY SINFUL LIFE (1983) “School Girls By Day… Super Ladies Of The Night” Ah, incest! One of the ultimate taboos. The world of porn has dealt with the subject a lot and continues to do so. Will Carlos Tobalina’s 1983 attempt stand up to the likes of Kirdy Stevon’s Taboo series? Judging by my experience […]

“Well, let’s just try to keep it simple?” It’s a baffling decision on the part of whomever at Cartoon Network pulls the particular levers that determine these things to air two episodes about the overbearing mothers of supporting characters back to back. ‘Sadie’s Song’ doesn’t really cover any territory that last week’s ‘Nightmare Hospital’ didn’t […]
