Just saw Murnau’s Nosferstu as nature intended: with live musical accompaniment!

The pitch perfect score by @seagreenmusic.bsky.social really made this 100+ years old film feel modern and dynamic again. Got distinct John Carpenter vibes (and I mean that as a high compliment)

‘Bye Sweet Carole’ Charms with Its Classical Animation Combined with Dark Fantasy [Review] Bye Sweet Carole plays a devious trick when first booted up, lulling you into a false sense of security and giving off a deliberately misleading impression. In case you’re not aware, the whole shtick ...

"If you’re in that niche target audience of people who like survival horror, meaty brainteasers, classic Disney animation or preferably all three, then this is one twisted fairytale that you won’t wanna miss," @harrisonabbott.bsky.social writes in his 4-star review of BYE SWEET CAROLE:

‘Silent Hill f’ Breathes New Life (and Scares) into the Series [Review] There’s a lot riding on Silent Hill f. I don’t think it’d be catastrophising to say that the reputation and, perhaps more importantly, the future prospects of a gaming icon hang in the balance here. F...

Like RE:7, Silent Hill f feels authentic to its roots but also completely fresh & exciting. It captures the essence of the series without getting bogged down in the past and has become one of my favouritie entires as a result. My review @bloody-disgusting.com

A ★★★★½ review of The Long Walk (2025) Starts as an incredibly tense, brutal thriller in the vein of King’s more celebrated horror works, before then turning into a more character focussed exploration of friendship, empathy and the struggl...

The Long Walk starts as a tense, brutal thriller in the vein of King’s celebrated horror works, before then turning into a moving exploration of friendship and the struggle to cling onto hope in the darkest of times (recalling the big beating heart of Shawshank). My Letterboxd review:

Ahead of Gamescom I sat down with @illfonic.bsky.social to learn more their vision for Halloween: The Game, the extent of John Carpenter's involvement in the project, how they're planning to shake up the asymmetrical foruma, and their first proper stab at a solo campaign. Read the inside scoop here!

Monster Island (2025) - Movie Review Monster Island, 2025. Directed by Mike Wiluan. Starring Dean Fujioka, Callum Woodhouse and Alan Maxson. SYNOPSIS: Set during WW2, a Japanese soldier and a British prisoner of war are stranded on a des...

Monster Island's press notes cite a number of key influences, ranging from Malay folklore to Creature from the Black Lagoon. What they fail to mention, however, is that this is really just a (well made) Predator clone. My review for @flickeringmyth.bsky.social

‘System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster’ Is Absolute Perfection [Review] Just a little over a year ago, we gave a (broadly positive) appraisal of the System Shock remake after it was ported over to consoles. To briefly recap what was said here, we admired how that update p...

I have a hot take, which is that System Shock 2 is actually pretty good. Read my radical opinions over at @bloody-disgusting.com, as I review the game’s new 25th Anniversary remaster

They’d have to pay me $80

I realise my ranking isn't in line with the consensus but agree with your placement of the remake

My version of Blade Runner is that I use lots of em-dashes in my writing and this could mean that I am an AI

A ★★★½ review of Until Dawn (2025) When I reviewed Home Sweet Home: Rebirth, i was confounded by how it managed to overcomplicate a rather straightforward horror game and how it made next-to-no effort to resemble its source material. S...

In terms of horror game adaptations released within the last month, Until Dawn is certainly no Last of Us but it's not Home Sweet Home: Rebirth either. It at least understands the spirit of its source material, and relishes in the practical gore effects

The Oblivion remaster dropping on Gamepass the week of my vacation is some shit that I, and only I, mainfested.

Say thank you, guys.

I've been broadly positive about The Last of Us' TV adaptation so far, but have always had one persisting quibble that the world felt way too safe and lacking in peril (in turn, robbing Joel's big choice of some of its significance). Tonight's episode addressed that criticism in a big way. Loved it

‘The Flayed Man’ Is a Bite-Sized Freebie With a Lot of Meat on Its Bones [Review] It ought to go without saying, but you cannot grade all video games on the same bell curve. What’s acceptable for a modestly budgeted indie, for instance, might not pass muster in the AAA arena. Meanw...

The Flayed Man is quick, bitesized little freebie of a game that manages to cram a lot of depth and clever puzzles into its short runtime. If you've got an hour to spare, you should definitely check it out. My review for @Bloody-disgusting.com

So I've started a new job.

I'm the editor for @epicrpgtales.bsky.social, a new website dedicated to RPGs and the fantasy genre in general.

I'm excited to help build a gaming site from the start.

I thought i'd break the ice by sharing a few of my favorite RPGs from over the years.

For last week's episode of @saferoompod.bsky.social , @nezzko.bsky.social and I shared our wishlists for games that we think deserve the remake/remaster treatment!

‘Silent Hill f’ – 6 Things We Learned from the Latest ‘Silent Hill’ Transmission It’s been nearly three years since Konami first announced their plans to revitalize the Silent Hill franchise, and while we’ve seen a few missteps during this time, I think it’s fair to say that the s...

Silent Hill f appears to offer something new in the popular video game franchise. Here are six interesting details that we learned about it from the latest Silent Hill Transmission:

If you do nothing but write articles to gas up AI, you're a class traitor and should be chased out of the industry.

Never saw Coda but:

1) Oppenheimer
2) The Shape of Water
3) Parasite
4) Anora
5) Nomadland
6) Moonlight
7) Green Book
8) Spotlight
9) Everything Everywhere All At Once

Only time will tell if last night’s defeat fully Bradley Cooperizes Timothée Chalamet. He might very well spend the next three years learning to code for a Bill Gates biopic that requires eight hours of hair and makeup per day.

There's this weird "The Academy only likes young women" narrative popping up suddenly and it's very much not true if you look over the actress winners of the last 15 years. Meryl, Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Frances McDormand, Renee Zellweger, Yuh-jung Youn, Allison Janney

The Substance was good & one can be disappointed Demi didn’t win & it’s always important to unpack ageism/sexism in film, but I’m not convinced that demeaning Mikey’s talent by claiming she only won because male voters decided with their dicks is the bold feminist stance some posters think it is.

This doesn't take into consideration the egregious absence Tony Todd.

NO OTHER LAND wasn't just the best speech of the night, it was the best speech of the entire awards season.

i think i agree with all of these, but definitely Hugh Grant in Heretic, a very different role for him that he did so well
