Watch out, this one might be hard on the eyes.
Okay, it's actually not THAT bad if you are familiar with effects driven TV shows of the 2000s. A strange fever dream of a product with some insulting aspects, to be sure. But it also has a hear...

Watched a whole bunch of movies recently! You can see my reviews for them on our social media pages.
The only good one is Missing. I didn't like the style it was striving for, but it won me over at the end. Would recommend!
Currently in a writer's block. Been playing a lot of Yakuza 0 to distract myself. Got into the game because commenters say they (fail to) learn Mahjong from playing this game. Stayed because of a chicken called nugget that is also a real estate ma...
