Obscure: The Aftermath review

As I mentioned before, we don't usually focus on video games here but the folks behind Obscure: The Aftermath were kind enough to pass me a copy of the game and it plays out much like a eighties slasher film, which totally seems to fit here at Oddity, so I thought I should let you all know about it.

Masters of Horror: Right to Die DVD review

Some people get a little finicky with who is chosen for the MASTERS OF HORROR series, but honestly, if you have the ability to make one truly interesting horror film then I think you know what you are doing. Rob Schmidt is only known in the horror realm as the director of WRONG TURN, a film which took a tired old idea and actually did it right.

The Descent (2006) DVD review

A friendly group of strong women spelunkers meet once a year to go, well...spelunking. Who ever wrote this film, took modern film theory in college. I'd bet money. Or, alternately, I could churn out a rather excellent essay about this film using basic feminist psychoanalysis--and that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Maniac Cop

So I accidentally watched Maniac Cop, instead of Maniac -- which had been recommended to me for it's Savininess. Maniac Cop has little if nothing to do with Tom Savini, but it's an interesting (albeit cheesy 80's) little film.
