In this remake of the second installment of the popular Resident Evil franchise, which is available for Xbox one, PlayStation 4 and PC, you get the chance to join Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield, both who are playable characters with their own campaign, as they fight to survive and thwart the evil Umbrella Corporation’s experiments in the zombie-infested Raccoon City. The gameplay is very well executed, with a level of challenge that remains true to the survival horror concept, and while you do have to […]

I usually like to read the book first. Or comics, in this case. That obnoxious friend who read all of A Song of Ice and Fire before HBO picked it up and filmed her friends’ reactions to major plot twists? That’s me. The person in line for Mockingjay who asks if you’d read The Hunger Games and then gives you a sympathetic look when you hadn’t? Also me. The girl in your Lit class who loudly says “Well in the books you really see more […]

Of course, you know that we are going to be having major spoilers up ahead, so enter at your own risk for lots on episode 509 of The Walking Dead. So after a brief recap, we find ourselves digging. For what, we don’t immediately know. Judging by all the tears, Beth’s funeral is a very touching affair? Perhaps, even if it is short. Plans to head to Richmond are made and off we go, heading to Virginia, to scout Noah’s old camp! Lizzie and Mika […]

Walking Dead hits an emotional apex with an episode that explores Daryl and Carol seeking Beth, themselves, and each other. It’s possibly the best Walking Dead episode ever. I’m going to dispense with the plot of this episode rather quickly, not because it wasn’t good. It was a great plot, part mystery, part Daryl and Carol like an RPG adventuring party exploring abandoned urban “dungeons,” part crazy stunts and overall badassitude. But there’s other stuff worth talking about. So: they head into The City to […]

The gang, well, most of them, are now at Terminus and reunited. Just how is this going to turn out? Let’s find out… Starting out with a visit to the recent past at Terminus, we see Gareth and some other Terminans (catchy, no?) debating their motives. Back to the present, Rick and the gang are making some bad ass makeshift weapons as they wile away their time in the restricted and dark, ominous trailer. The group moves with purpose and in silence and steady themselves […]

For a particularly creepy opening, Daryl and Beth come busting out of the bushes on a dark, ominous night where zombies are not far behind them. They stumble upon an old, abandoned piece of crap car and shut themselves in the trunk as the zombies shamble all around them and thunder rumbles on in the distance. They somehow wait it out all night with Daryl training his crossbow at the sliver of light while he holds the trunk shut with a towel. Good grief. This […]

Greg and Jared Butler have some interesting ideas about zombie movies, and how to make one like you’ve never seen before. They just need $45K to make it happen. The Butler brothers want to film a movie about heroic zombies in a post-apocalyptic world fighting against evil human oppressors. The zombies are immortals who’ve lived for a hundred years or more, and use various bio-mechanical bodges to hold their deteriorating bodies together. The movie is called Undying. And while I was skeptical at first (whenever […]

On the Walking Dead season finale, people die. Lots and lots of people. I wanted to be really excited about this episode, but in the end, it feels like Walking Dead has been spinning its wheels for two months. The Woodbury vs. Prison war just goes on and on and on, pointlessly. How many times have they attacked each other now? I’ve literally lost count. Eight times? Ten? To begin, the Gov is torturing Andrea. And Milton. Milton gets it worse, for some reason. Back […]

On Walking Dead, the Prison vs. Woodbury war simmers while Andrea attempts to arrange a peace treaty. Everyone chooses sides, and Beth sings a Tom Waits song. This was a pretty slow and terrible episode. Everyone talked at each other a lot. A ton of a lot. Then some people walked around a lot so they could go talk to other people. Even when Andrea gets a car, she drives around very slowly and sensibly and doesn’t even run over any zombies. So the plot […]
