VIDEO: World War Z - Gameplay Overview Trailer

World War Z (2013) was the film that was supposed to be based on the Max Brooks novel of the same name. For the record, that book is an awesome read and the film did not do the book any justice. However, there is no shortage of fans of the zombie genre in entertainment and when you add them to videogames, it almost guarantees a lot of fun.

This month, the video game based on the movie will be released for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 on April 16th. Focus Home Interactive released some gameplay footage for the cooperative, third-person shooter that might put the game on the radar for fans of "shooter" games and you can check that out here:


The leveling up and reward system makes it seem like there will be some serious replay value for this game and of course, there's always downloadable content that can bring gamers back to any game that starts to lose some steam. One thing about the game's story and progress that sort of seems like it's giving a nod to the book is the episodic presentation of how the game works. That might be stretching it but when it comes to a game with zombies in it you can play with friends, does it really matter?

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies.  I watched the entire franchise in two days after not seeing any of the films since I was a kid. I know things are opening up and the weather is nice, but we're not quite out of the COVID-19 woods yet. Since that is the case I am still re-watching old horror flicks and catching ones I might have missed . The Phantasm series stretches to almost 40 years of horror, beginning in what I feel was the best time for horror films, the 80s. The first one, Phantasm (1979) came out when I was still wet behind the ears, barely a kid. I didn't even set eyes on it until the early 80s. All I could remember about the movie was "The Tall Man,' played by Angus Scrimm in all the films, those flying chrome-plated death spheres, and little dudes in cans.  Along with Scrimm, the film stars Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornberry, and Reggie Bannister. Baldwin plays Mike Pearson, who is the...

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love. By looking for things to write about, I found that my love for reading balances out with my love of writing. Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better.  Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King .
