Where would the world be without Tim Thomerson? Well, for starters, we would never have been treated to the joys of the film Trancers (1985) directed by Charles Band. I will tell you why I am writing about this dusty little '80's gem of a b-movie, as if saying that isn't reason enough to review it here. Trancers is a film that I have been flirting with my entire life. As a young kid gr... more. -
Dreams with Sharp Teeth: Documentary of a Sci-Fi God!!!

Right off the bat, the man, myth and legend which this film review is about is probably pissed off at me. Harlan Ellison is indeed a science fiction god, however he prefers the broader term speculative fiction to describe the immense body of writing he has poured out of his typewriter for the past 55 plus years. Ellison has a notoriously abrasive and cantankerous personality, and if he is ... more. -

Hello everyone.

Hello Game Journal friends! I'd like to apologize for my extended absence over the past few weeks from the world of articles, but life's demands and end of semester rigors have gotten the best of me lately. But, I'm back and I intend to write with a vengeance for the rest of this summer! Note, all good intentions do not come to fruition. That said, I'm going to spend this article doing s... more. -

Hi friends and fans! My presence from Game Journal has been absent the past few weeks for two reasons. 1. I have been crazy busy with work and school projects and, more importantly, 2. I have been watching crap not worth mentioning lately. Well, all that changed the other night when I watched a delightful French spy film called OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2006) starring Jean Dujardi... more. -
