Zoombies (2015)

I gotta be honest here. I have no idea how to score this movie. The idea was pretty damn original all things considered. All the zombies were animals from a zoo dedicated to endangered species of animals. I love them combining to things people are passionate about, animals and endangered species. That being said it fell into this weird spot where it was a campy B- Horror movie that was trying way to hard not to be what it was. Now anyone that follows my blog knows I LOVE those types of movies, but they have to be done right and this one, well it was hit and miss.

It has a fun goofy premise, but it randomly tries to be serious at random times then skips back at random to being goofy. For example the little girl having a tea party with her stuff animals discovers her koala bear has been replaced with a zombie koala. The scene gets real serious and when we go back to the little girl she somehow ripped this thing in half. Cool goofy fun…but no-one ever mentions this again. It is just accepted that this little girl did this. We then move on. I can happily accept a goofy B-Horror movie or a serious one. But please don’t mix and match. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Almost Human (2014)

This movie had a cool premise. A guy watches his friend get sucked up by a light, guns to another friends house where some lights go out, there is lights in the sky, strange noises and boom another person sucked up into the sky.

Two years later a series of grisly murders take place and Seth believes his friend is some how connected. You won’t get to many exciting or surprising moments in this movie nor will you see anything new. That being said you also won’t have a reason to be disappointed with it either. I won’t say to watch this one, but I can’t recommend you skip it either. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you greatness.

Cabin Fever (2002)

This movie always seemed to be a cult classic with me. A lot of people seemed to hate it and the ones that don’t seem to love it.

A group of college kids rent out a cabin for the week to party,get laid and unwind. It doesn’t take long for all hell to break loose. An obviously very sick man shows up wanting help and not wanting to be infected they drive him off and accidentally set him on fire. Unknown to them he puts himself out by diving into what is the areas water supply.

As the infection spreads people start turning on each other and the local towns people attempt to kill them. The visuals aren’t but the acting is good enough and while not the scariest movie it is still solid. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Don’t Kill It (2017)

Don’t Kill It on the surface is a typical demon movie and honestly it never truly goes much deeper. Dolph Lundgren plays a demon hunter but there is a small twist. He is responsible for letting this demon escape and the demon jumps from host to host in an unusual way. Anytime someone kills the host that person becomes the new host. The story while not very original is pretty well done and Dolph as always is fun to watch. While this may not be the best movie out there, I don’t see any reason to avoid it. Go enjoy it and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Zombie Army Trilogy

ZAT

Like shooting games? Wanna shoot zombies? Hate Nazis? Have I got a game for you. Zombie Army Trilogy is a game where Hitler has a secret plan. When World War 2 went south for the Nazi side of things Hitler turned to the occult, and the results were Hitler and his army being turned into an army of the undead. The controls can be a little stiff at times but they are perfectly usable and while the sound and graphics aren’t what I would call top notch I won’t complain about them either. The game is both challenging and fun. It also offers both a  story mode and horde mode both available in single player and online multiplayer. Casual gamers may not like it, but zombie shooter fans will enjoy it. Now get out there and shoot some Nazi zombies, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991)

This has upset many of horror fans, even more Freddy fans and has made me a few friends. However this is my favorite Nightmare on Elm Street movie. While not the scariest of the bunch I did find it the most entertaining.

This time around a group of delinquent teens must stop Freddy. The catch? One of them may be the long lost child of Freddy himself. What follows are some great deaths, for example Freddie pushing a bed of spikes under a falling teen like something out of a loony tunes cartoon. True to Freddy form he needs his kid to escape not just one set of victims to another but this time a new town all together, because remember, every town has an Elm Street. The death of Freddy sadly seems pretty shallow for such a legend, but can a legend really die? Ponder that, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors

I first played this game for the Super Nintendo years ago.I spent days shooting zombies with a squirt gone and various other off the wall but fun weapons before I realized the game seemed to just repeat levels. Or maybe I just sucked at the game. Either way the game was one of the few games as a kid I remember my mom actually sitting down to play for hours on end.

All the levels while vastly different different play out the same, kill stuff and rescue people. This game was simply a lot of fun to play, and any retro fan should give it a try. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Nightmare on Elm Street 5

The Dream Child (1989) brings back Alice one final time and is another movie that like most of the Freddy movies has a weird cult following. Fans seem to love the series while critics hate them. While I do admit the first movie was probably the best ( tho my favorite is yet to come) it is impossible to say I don’t enjoy my yearly Nightmare weekend. Yes I watched and wrote all these over the course of a weekend. Anyway, this time around Freddy is using the dreams of Alice’s unborn child in an attempt to return. After killing the father Alice is alone with no one left to believe her and the deaths start once again. Will Alive ever sleep again? May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Nightmare on Elm Street 4

Dream master (1988) always had mixed reviews but I found it rather enjoyable. This movie saw the torch of being able to summon people into dreams passed from Kristen to Alice when Freddie killed the final child of the parents that killed him with Kristen. With Alice the power seems to work slightly different tho, after every death she takes on a trait from the one Freddie killed, for example when her martial arts buff brother died she became much more physically capable. It was a pretty neat idea that some people just didn’t seem to get behind. All in all while not the best in the series it sets up number 5 nicely while still offering a fun story and a nice selection of deaths. As always sweet dreams and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Nightmare on Elm Street 3

Dream Warriors brings us back to the Wes Craven Nightmare movies. Nancy is back, this time to help a group of kids in a hospital to help kids suffering from a type of group psychosis resulting in nightmares. Kristen has the ability to call the others into her dreams to face the master of dreams, and that master is none other than Freddie himself. Each child has a special ability that can be used to battle in the dream world to buy time for Nancy and Dr. Neil Gordan as they attempt to find the body of Freddie in the real world to bury it on hallowed ground and stop him once and for all and only 1 man can supply that information,the very drunk Donald Thompson father of Nancy.

A lot of things happen in this movie, like finding out from the ghost of Freddy’s mother that he is the bastard son of 100 maniacs and a few other things I won’t spoil just in case someone happens to have not seen it. Be careful when you sleep, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
