A Witch in the Matrix: Did I Create WandaVision?

“Witch has whole town under spell, as she takes victims the town’s people see this as a sitcom on their home television thinking nothing of it. Only a few are not fooled by this spell.” So what, I’m just describing the plot of WandaVision, right? Actually no, this was a completely original idea I came

Remember This Skeleton Halloween Decoration?

You almost certainly have seen one of these die-cut, jointed skeleton decorations on someone’s door at some point in your life, if you don’t own one yourself. There are many like it, but the one you’re probably most familiar with is the Beistle design (seen below). While I love this classic design, there is one

Amanda the Adventurer 2 Review

I don’t know what it is about constraint that makes it such a powerful breeding ground for creativity, but it’s just pure magic. Halloween and The Blair Witch Project are considered by most horror fans to be some of the greatest horror movies ever made, and the one thing they have in common is scrappy,

The Stillness (short film)

Update, here it is… Zombies have made a massive comeback over the past 15 years, and while I like all kinds of zombies, the slow-moving zombies of Romero’s films will always be the most interesting to me. The Stillness is a short film, written and directed by Jackson Monks and Hunter Hieatt, and also stars

I Finally Play Dying Light a Decade Later

It’s no secret that when Dying Light released in 2015, it sold really well. Ever since Techland released the first announcement trailer for Dead Island back in 2011, they’ve been killing it in the zombies genre. Some consider the trailer to be the best video game trailer to ever be created, and it certainly went

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Review

And that’s exactly what Indiana Jones means to me, dusty old skulls stuck on ancient trap spikes, that’s what I drew as a kid, and that’s exactly the feeling MachineGames managed to capture with this perfect recreation of an Indiana Jones movie in game form. End of review. Okay, I perhaps have a little more

Severance is More Literal than Metaphorical

As meta (both -physical and -phorical) as Severance is, the more unsettling aspect of the show is that it’s quite literal. In my experience, many corporations are very cult-like, in their language, marketing, dress code, rules, etc. There’s always been something subversive in the way corporations (for the sake of PR) pretend to care about

My Silent Hill 2 Fan Theory

To be clear, nothing about the following theory necessarily negates any of the other possibilities: that Silent Hill is actually hell or purgatory, that Mary is dead in the backseat of James’ car the whole time, that everyone is dead, buried next to each other in a cemetery, stuck in a loop like ghosts trying
