[Retrospective] For Better And For Worse: ‘F.E.A.R. 2’ Turns 10

February 20, 2019

admin

Inspired by the J-Horror craze going on at the time, Monolith’s F.E.A.R. was a solid action fest of a shooter that entertained as much as it terrified. Yeah, the ending was clichéd, but dammit, the slow-motion ability, combined with some beefy weapons and slick graphics made for some fun times. And yes, this was also […]

Like the films or not, you simply can’t deny that Robert Hall’s Laid to Rest movies feature some of the best practical gore effects in modern times, making the two movies (thus far) total must-watches for all gore-hounds.

[Editorial] ‘Resident Evil 2’ Showcases the Importance of Restraint in Horror Games

February 19, 2019

It’s often posited that ‘’familiarity breeds contempt’’. This maxim is especially true in the horror genre, where overexposure can reduce once-menacing-killers and grotesque monsters into irritating nuisances. For evidence of this phenomenon, look no further than Freddy Krueger or Jason Voorhees: previously-intimidating slashers who have become so ingrained in pop-culture, that their appearances have been […]

After being projected to open at less than $30M, Twentieth Century Fox’s Robert Rodriguez-directed and James Cameron-produced Alita: Battle Angel (read our review) overperformed with an estimated $41M through this extended weekend in North America.

With horror industry heavy hitters already in place from the 1970s, the 1980s built upon that with the rise of brilliant minds in makeup and effects artists, as well as advances in technology. Artists like Rick Baker, Rob Bottin, Alec Gillis, Tom Woodruff Jr., Tom Savini, Stan Winston, and countless other artists that delivered groundbreaking, […]

In our Far Cry New Dawn review, Bloody Disgusting discovers that the New Dawn rocks, but doesn’t exactly prove to be a new day for post-apocalyptic shooters. If you’re anything like me, you’ll play the majority of Far Cry New Dawn with Timber, the doggo, by your side. It’s not that the rest of the […]

Revealed at E3 last year, Tripwire Interactive’s Maneater is one of my most anticipated games of 2019, for the simple reason that it allows you to play as a hungry killer shark. Taking cues from Majesco’s 2006 game Jaws Unleashed, you swim around in an open world environment where almost everyone and everything can be your next meal. We’ve learned […]
