A Secret Revealed – When the Day Yearns for Light
Here’s another case of “the art indicates this will be good.” Also I knew this was a case of “post-somethingrather.” Damn I was right on both counts, you know my shit on point. How does he do it? Never going to tell you, but I totally called it. I believe I first heard of […]

Last Night in Soho (Most Overhyped Film of 2021)
When the patron saint of gimmicky editing announced a giallo-inspired horror movie, film bros collectively squealed. Following prestige festival screenings, Last Night in Soho opened wide in the U.S. just in time for Halloween. The good news: Edgar Wright has reined in his showy style. The bad news: the film wants to be a […]

Mental Devastation – The Delusional Mystery of the Self Part I (What Thrash is Supposed to Sound Like)
Phew, now this title is sure a fooking mouthful. Maybe that’s why it took me so long to finish this review, I was still reading it lol. Actually, I waited because to be honest most of the December promo pool was absolute garbage. This one came in rather early so I sat on it, […]

Diablery – Candles (Symphonic Greek Black Metal Mastery)
Really didn’t feel like listening to goddamn black metal this month. Don’t know why. Probably the vast number of shitass promos I received. Banal splits. Upside crosses all over the fucking place. Pointy logos. Stupid corpsepaint whateverthefuck. Some shit about snow. Tanks or something I don’t know. Holding swords as if to assault but […]

Blood Breed (Sad Bad Retro-Inspired Survival Horror)
The appeal of “retro” styled games has been in full swing for the last few years. Many gamers remember the good old days of survival horror and that’s where games like Blood Breed come in, an obvious throwback to PS1 horror from its blocky graphics, schlocky dialogue, and overall feeling of escaping over fighting. […]

Charnel Altar – Abatement of the Sun (Vile, Life-Ruining Blackened Death Doom)
Well here’s an album that will turn you into a godforsaken, lowest form of scum. I mean this is just some of the most disgusting shit I’ve heard in awhile. Total garbage liquid. Total vomit feces. Total bile clot. That’s about what Charnel Altar’s latest rot pile is, something like that. Abatement of the […]

Despot’s Game (Tiny Naked People Military Kill Game)
Ooohhh here’s an interesting one, yeah. Been awhile since I played some cool strategy shit and this is some cool strategy shit in military style. In all my time playing first-person survival stuff, Despot’s Game was a welcome release, a break from the usual that is quite definitely a break I’d be willing to […]

Estertor – Tales from the Ancient Grave (Blackened Punked Thrash)
Hot daimn son. I’m late on reviewing this, but that’s just because of the stupid holiday and stupid dumb old eating stuff and no one has time for listening to cool trash music during that time because stupid Christmas stuff is blasting everywhere and uggghhh… So here we are, now it’s time. Please forgive […]

Dachra (What Not to Do Witchcraft Film)
Criticizing horror movies for stupid character behavior is often wishful thinking–humans do silly things under stress, and nobody knows how we’d react in extreme situations until we’re in them. But poor decision-making by movie characters serves a dramatic purpose: it makes us feel superior to them. Telegraphing the missteps that lead to bad outcomes […]

Concrete Winds – Nerve Butcherer (Death Metal by Half-Beings)
Goddamn I love this messy ass cover. You can’t tell what the hell you’re looking at from any angle. The band logo is like a collection of broken hypodermics, the album title will give you a seizure, and they’re both laid on top of a bizarre gathering of nonsensical, yet somehow frightening shapes and […]
