Marvelous Videos presents ninja flicks for the ages… What is it about ninjas that make them so enticing to western audiences? To be honest, we actually don’t have to speculate as to the answer- they’re freakin awesome. Lone warriors disguised among the plebs, ready to strike at a moment’s notice and disappear as quickly all […]
The Man Who Changed Cinema: Great Creature Features from Ray Harryhausen
Marvelous Videos on Ray Harryhausen and his creature movies… A lot of times in movies there are many important crew members who go unrecognized. I mean, let’s be honest with ourselves- it’s much easier to pin all the successes (and failures) of a flick on the big names like the director, producer(s), editor, cinematographer, etc… […]
Video Game Review – Verdant Village
Red Stewart reviews Verdant Village for PC (Steam)… Sometimes great ideas emerge from the polymorphization of smaller ones. Take two radically different franchises, such as Final Fantasy and Disney, and throw them into a mixer- now you have Kingdom Hearts. Likewise, new genres emerge from the combination of preexisting templates. One of the more interesting […]
Extreme Gun-Fu Action Movie Gems You Cannot Miss!
Marvelous Videos with a selection of essential gun-fu movies… Gun-fu. It’s a strange word, a western portmanteau that seeks to combine firearms with Eastern martial arts. But how can this be? How can you realistically have people shoot guns at close range without it seeming gimmicky or outright silly? Well, the great thing about movies […]
Even Bigger, Badder, Better Boss Battles!
Red Stewart presents bigger bosses for you to digest… There’s honestly not much we can say- big bosses make for big fun! Who does not love the idea of taking down some giant behemoth in a climactic exchange that can only be brought to life by the visceral interactive nature of video games? Sure, sometimes […]
More Terrifying Moments in Non-Horror Video Games
Red Stewart presents frightening moments in non-horror video games 2.0…. The horror, the horror! Oh, we’re (not) just quoting Apocalypse Now – we’re talking about the genre itself! Horror has seeped into everything, whether it’s action, comedy, sci-fi, fantasy, drama. And it doesn’t seem to be ending anytime soon. The reality is video games are […]
Video Game Creeps Who’ll Make Your Skin Crawl!
Red Stewart presents five skin-crawling creeps in video games… Why oh why do storytellers do this? Why do they feel the need to drop spiders down our backs (metaphorically) through having us face a genuinely disturbing character? We get that video games are less-restricted than movies in many respects, but does that really justify throwing […]
Video Game Review – Struggling
Red Stewart reviews Struggling for PC (Steam)… Much like how Ren & Stimpy inspired an era of gross-out cartoons, I’ve always felt that Super Meat Boy and, to a greater extent, The Binding of Isaac, had a similar effect on the indie game market. Both came out within a year of each other, showcased a morbidly appealing aesthetic, had violent […]

The former will be $499/£449 while the latter will be $299/£249. Interestingly, for the first time, you will have the option to do a monthly payment plan via Xbox’s “All Access” […]
The Happiest Plot Twists in Video Games
Red Stewart presents heartwarming moments in video games… Plot twists are typically designed to shock people into sadness. You are seeing something that has now completely changed your perspective on the prior narrative, turning it into a hodgepodge of existential demise. Or does it have to be so? Sometimes plot twists are used for the […]
