Game Review: 'Redfall'

Game Review: ‘Redfall’

Everything is fine till the Vampires move in. That’s what happens in Arkane Studios and Bethesda’s Redfall. Players have been teased with the game for a while with some fearing it would end up in production hell as a result but here we are and Arkane and Bethesda reached out and gave me the chance to go to Redfall to fight some vampires to which I’m very grateful for the opportunity! Redfall is about an island in Massachusetts that has become overrun with vampires and cultists that allied themselves with them. After the island is sealed off from the mainland and the sun is eclipsed, four survivors teamed up to face the horrors ahead. Now onto the game itself! Redfall‘s controls are basic for an FPS game, so veterans of these kinds of games will have a leg up on the bloodsuckers. Headphones are a must, I know I say that a lot, but in this game there are secrets

Short Film Review: Real Cool Time (2023)

Short Film Review: Real Cool Time (2023)

Rock musician Devin (Lanae Hyneman) has fallen on some hard ass times… mentally anyway. After a disastrous European tour, Devin has retreated to a lw-rent apartment to seclude herself from the world ostensibly to work on material for a follow up to her bands successful debut album, but really she wallows in sadness and does her best to look like a burnt out shell of a woman. She’s pretty successful at that as well. While developing that skill-set she is interrupted by pushy journalist Juliya (Alice Shen) who demands Devin give her the scoop on what really went on across the pond. Her pain-in-the-assness pays off, and she gets her wish… and you can bet the freaky farm that the answer is much more than just truck loads of beastly booze and fistfuls of drugs. Supernatural shenanigans ensue! Writer/director Matthew Packman (who also helmed 2020’s vampire revenge flick Morbid Colors which I reviewed right here) returns to the gritty city

Scott Hamm Duenas Talks About His Film 'Rebroken' In Our Interview

Scott Hamm Duenas Talks About His Film ‘Rebroken’ In Our Interview

After watching writer and star Scott Hamm Duenas’s new film, Rebroken, also starring Saw franchise actor Tobin Bell, I sat down with Scott to discuss his movie, whose big twist you’ll never see coming (Spoiler Free). The film centers on Will, a devastated father who spends time between court-ordered grief counseling and drinking himself into oblivion. He repeats the cycle of despair daily without plans to stop until he meets a mysterious stranger who gives him some old vinyl recordings. After Will listens to the records, he suddenly receives messages from his recently deceased daughter. As his daughter’s communications grow more frequent, Will becomes convinced that these recordings hold the answer to bringing his daughter back from the dead. But just as he is closing in on the truth, he starts to suspect that his counseling group has ulterior motives. Rebroken is far from Scott’s first involvement in the entertainment industry. Besides starring in, writing, directing, and producing many films,
