SILENT HILL: TOWNFALL is another resounding success for the Motoi Okamoto-era, although not without its flaws. I have not stopped thinking about it.

The thing that surprised me most about Silent Hill: Townfall is how politically charged its story is, and how much it makes of its British identity. My review for @bloody-disgusting.com

EVIL DEAD BURN goes scorched earth with the grimmest, goriest and most stylishly uncompromising take on the series. It fully commits to its burning motif with an abusive French Extremity twist that leans heavily on the cruelty exhibited in the 2013 version. Still darkly comedic, but way more bitter

On a whim, I actually started reading Suzuki’s Ring last year and, in no time flat, proceeded to voraciously consume the entire series (minus the untranslated Tide). His books are bonkers, unpredictable and eminently readable. Of the ones I’ve read, Dark Water is the best but Birthday is great too
