Dispatches from the land of Garthunder! Part I

Over the past two Wednesdays a group of highly creative individuals have been creating a fantasy realm all their own. Over the coming weeks we will be starting a series of updates from that world called "Dispatches from the land of Garthunder".

 In the first installment we will give you a glimpse into a popular travel guide to the land of Garthunder. The book was discovered recently in a bin by the side of the road leading out of the city of Uramus.

This tome was designed by the great explorer of Garthunder, Brian Wordsmith and unearthed by our own Brian W.


Stay tuned for more dispatches from the land of Garthunder!

The Great Vhs Collection Review #6: Heavy Metal (1981)

Image
  There was a point in time when adult animation, and animation in general, became experimental and bizarre. This was a time when Ralph Bakshi and rotoscope animation ruled the indie circles. Though that age is over its art remains, and one of these underground classics is Heavy Metal, the personification of the frase “sex,drugs,and rock&roll”.  Since this movie is an anthology (I have many of those in my collection) I will talk about each segment individually before giving my opinion on the movie as a whole.  The Wrap Around: In most anthologies there is a “wrap around segment” that is meant to tie all of the stories together, and this one is no exception. This segment involves an astronaut returning to earth and giving his daughter a glowing green orb as a present, only for the orb to come to life, melt the astronaut, and corner the girl. The orb (called the Loc-Nar) introduces itself as “the sum of all evils” and shows her how he (I think it’s a he) has influenced the universe

Cammy - Chapter 2 By Corey R.

Chapter 2:   Meanwhile, in a small town, a young man was just finishing his work day. He looked to be no older than 20, and had a pale looking skin tone. His hair was short and looked like the night sky. His eyes had the tone of chestnuts, almost glass looking in the bright early summer sun. He wore a charcoal looking suit which reached his waist, and a tie that looked the same as the sea. On his legs, he wore pants that looked as if he wore ash on his legs instead. His shoes matched his suit to complete his outfit.    “Well, that’s a wrap people. Go home and we’ll go at this again next week.”, came the boss’s voice over his desk speaker.    Upon hearing this, the man was quick to gather his belongings, and was now on his way home. These included a notebook, small bag of pens and pencils, and a thermos of which he kept his drinks in during the day.  He didn’t live very far from the office he worked at, and since it was Friday, he was in no rush for anything. But before he left, h

The Great VHS Collection Review #3: Arachnophobia (1990)

The Great VHS Collection Review #3: Arachnophobia(1990) I think in this first couple of reviews I have been a little harsh and negative (even if the animated Narnia movie is an ironic masterpiece), so for this one I will talk about a movie that I actually like and find is ignored in favor of Gremlins and Poltergeist in terms of suburban horror. In fact I think watching these three movies together would be a fascinating experience, the millennial scaring trilogy. The film is about a family dealing with incredibly venomous (and one cat sized) spiders, spiders that can kill with a single bite. Naturally this is not a film for anyone who actually suffers from arachnophobia, the suspense scenes are well made and timed perfectly. Watching it as an adult it is easy to see how this scared so many people when they were kids. Looking back at it now it’s not quite as scary as it could have been, it is definitely more comedy than horror. That being said the first death is done quite well and it di
