School of Holy Beast
Written on May 26, 2008 at 10:14 pm, by Andrew Eidson
It’s been a few years since I last saw this movie, and recently I decided to give it a second viewing. You know, to see if this 1974 nunsploitation film stood to the test of time. Unlike most movies of this nature, School of the Holy Beast (Seiju Gakuen) actually does stand up to the Read more...
A look at the film “Saawariya”
Written on May 25, 2008 at 9:20 pm, by Andrew Eidson
What’s the first thing you think of when someone says “Bollywood”? Degrading film quality, out of pitch singing, over the top acting, and general craziness sprinkled throughout. Well, me too! However, this movie proves me wrong in quite a few ways. Don’t get me wrong, this is definitely a bollywood film with awkwardness aplenty. I Read more...

However, this game tries to only appeal to the people who already know about this particular series. First of all, Read more...

Something that was brought up on one of the first episode of everyone’s favorite podcast, Pause or Continue, really piqued my interest. One of the final questions of the show was “How will this game be looked upon in 10 years”, and that was something that I really think should be considered. Check the top Read more...
Horrific horribleness.
Written on May 15, 2008 at 12:54 pm, by Andrew Eidson
There’s no question that games are getting better and more advanced at an almost exponential speed. In recent years there has been huge improvement to graphics, controls and presentation in gaming, but this comes at a cost for one particular genre. Specifically, the horror genre; I believe the horror genre in gaming is about to Read more...
The B-52′s – Funplex impressions
Written on May 1, 2008 at 8:00 pm, by Andrew Eidson
Ok guys. This isn’t a review. These are “impressions”, and I’m not impressed. A lot of the songs are basically reiterations of previous songs and themes that they’ve already done. There’s no change in musical style, period. You’d think with a big comeback album they’d do some sort of sound that would grab you the Read more...
