I love what this game is going for, a dark sci fi epic with some trippy horror elements to it. I got a Prometheus meets Mass Effect vibe. The imagery is really cool and the combat looks fun. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Ultimate Horror Villain?!
I have to say this post goes out with a heavy heart from Savior and I. April, 4th, 2020 my father, Duke, passed away. The man was a legend, hilarious, smart, and loved action, superheroes, horror and passed this love to me and for that I’ll be eternally grateful so this post goes out to him…
A lot of the time me and my dad spent together was watching movies and movies and either riffing them a new asshole or losing ourselves the worlds before us. So you see the title of the post and wonder who I’m naming the ultimate horror villain? Is it Michael Myers, the masked Shape of Haddonfield, that stalks the streets on Halloween. Is it the Alien, the perfect orgasm that exists and is biologically designed to be a heartless killing machine? Pennywise the Dancing Clown, Freddy Kruger, Dracula, Candyman, the Cenobites, Jaws? While I admit the topic is subjective and everyone is free to there own opinions, Duke and I had a peculiar candidate in mind years and years ago. A killer so diabolical, not only were they never apprehended but is seen as a positive force in there killing field. That is the most frightening thing of all, there is no fear of them, only admiration and recognition that disguise the wells of blood they spilled across the US. So who is this mastermind, you ask? Jigsaw? No. Hannibal Lector? Nope. The answer (drum roll please)….is…
Jessica-motherfucking-Fletcher. Yes, the main “protagonist” of the hit show Murder She Wrote. For those unfamiliar, Murder She Wrote is about Jessica (J.B.) Fletcher who’s a widow, mystery writer, and sleuth in her cozy town of Cabot Cove. She’s a hometown hero, but I believe different. Why do people die wherever she goes? There is always a murder afoot and of course the police sheriff and town coroner need her aid to solve the deaths, despite both of them being close friends of the charming, sweet Ms. Fletcher. I’m saying it’s really suspicious the amount of deaths that have accrued in Cabot Cove, certainly wouldn’t the town be vacant after 12 seasons of Jessica’s bloodthirsty rampaging. Don’t let the cheery opening music and charmingly disarming performance by Angela Landsbury as Jessica Fletcher fool you, Murder She Wrote is a brilliant work of horror that gave us one of not only horror’s greatest villains, but fiction’s as well. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Ghostwire: Tokyo reveal trailer
This might the strangest of the new PS5 trailers but I’m enthralled by the fusion of anime influences, horror, and action. The graphics are really colorful and beautifully unique. I have no idea what the story is but I’m hooked. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Observer System Redux demo trailer
I know this game exists but it flew under my radar mostly; I know fans of it but I also know many that said it was a waste of potential. I’m glad it’s getting another shot and it looks like a new coat of paint is a good start. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Werewolf The Apocalypse- Earthblood cinematic trailer
Summer is here and what better time for some much needed werewolf mayhem? Seriously, werewolves get the shaft as far as monsters go so I’m ecstatic that they get some alone time to shine here. The concept looks cool and I’m curious what the other creatures shown are. There is plenty of potential here and like many I’m pumped for it. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Resident Evil VIII: Village reveal trailer
Hot damn, the timing couldn’t be better for me since I’m digging my teeth into the RE7 Gold Edition at the moment. Honestly, hearing about werewolves, I’m not so pissed now and think they look freaking sweet. The trailer looks gorgeous and I like the vibe between 4 and 7. But whose story will be coming to a close? I’m betting Chris though the woman in the trailer does look a lot like Claire. I’m excited as hell and can’t wait to see what mayhem we get in the village. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Nemesis Distress reveal trailer
No friends, not that Nemesis or Project Nemesis but a new multiplayer horror game derived from the board game ( that I didn’t know existed before working on this little post). As a game, I’m getting a heavy Alien and/or Predator vibe which could be cool. I’m interested to see what they come up with. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Doom Patrol season 2 trailer
I love crazy sci-fi and I love DC; one of my biggest regrets of last year was not watching Doom Patrol. Season 2 looks strange and interesting and a reason to check out HBO Max before the JLA Snyder Cut. I hope it’s a knockout. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Silent Hill Dead by Daylight trailer
Dude, when the hell are we getting a new Silent Hill game? I always wanted a newer game to sink into the series. It’s cool Dead by Daylight is doing a tribute pack to it but I, like many gamers, wish we got the game P.T promised. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
The Spongebob Squarepants movie
Are ya ready kids?
Ok, I won’t burst into song. Many are likely wondering, ‘Torsten, why are you talking Spongebob after a string of violent comics and video games’? Well, the answer is simple dear reader: I’M A GOOFY GOOBER!
Spongebob Squarepants is just a happy go lucky fry cook down under the sea in the underwater town of Bikini Bottom.he loves his job at the Krusty Krab, loves his friends, and loves jelly fishing. The Krusty Krab is about to open a second restaurant, spelling certain doom for Plankton and the Chum Bucket; after hundreds of failed ploys to take down Mr Crabs and the Krusty Crew, he has finally come up with the perfect diabolical plan. He swipes King Neptune’s crown which hides his baldness, and Neptune freezes Crabs out of anger. It’s up to Spongebob and his best friend Patrick to find the crown and bring order to Bikini Bottom before Plankton takes hold…
Kids movie or not, I laughed my ass off with this movie. I always had a soft spot in my heart for the lovable yellow bastard. If you love the show, the movie won’t disappoint. I love how batshit the movie gets like Spongebob getting wasted on ice cream or him and Patrick riding on top of the Hoff’s ass; it’s easy for adults with a WTF sense of humor to enjoy but its still a clean movie for the kids. It’s a colorful movie and a pretty good soundtrack including a badass Twisted Sister cover at the end. In the end, this is one of those rare times a movie can be enjoyed by young and old and its worth checking out. May the gaming gods bring you Krabby Patties.
