NEW REVIEW:

#HauntedHotel is a fun, smart, and refreshingly original animated series. It blends genuine laughs with clever horror in a way that’s rarely done this well.

Video Game Review:

#TheFlayedMan is a thought-provoking, visually compelling, and deeply atmospheric horror-adventure that demonstrates just how effective a short-form narrative game can be.

REVIEW: #TheConjuring: Last Rites

“Despite a slightly uneven first act, it ultimately delivers on scares, atmosphere and emotion. With excellent performances from Wilson and Farmiga, this is one of the strongest entries in the Conjuring universe.”

#TheLastOfUs - S2:E6

“Tugging at the heartstrings, beautifully performed, and filling in the narrative gaps we've witnessed so far, the penultimate episode of The Last of Us is a powerful piece of storytelling.”

REVIEW:

“The penultimate arc of #Andor delivers one of the finest television experiences of all time - nerve-wrackingly tense and masterfully performed.

Episode 8, in particular, will be remembered for years to come, thanks to the sheer emotional weight and disturbing imagery of its story.“

“This opening arc weaves together multiple storylines, each building tension in its own way, while the cast deliver standout performances across the board. It’s, once again, a side of Star Wars we rarely see - gritty, grounded, and all thebetter for it.”
