I do, however, consider myself a video gamer and sometimes I like to play sports games.

It's so nice to see a great single player RPG with a solid story and genuinely fun... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~492145249924 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:43:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_492145249924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_491581574788?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - The Prodigy is a good example of how you don't need A-list stars and a big budget to make a good movie. This was made by a bunch of first-timers with actors you've never seen before, and the result was surprisingly entertaining with some stellar... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~491581574788 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 02:41:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_491581574788?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_491443424900?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - Election is a very entertaining Chinese gangster movie about the Triad fighting over the election of a new crime boss. The box cover bears a quote from Quentin Tarantino saying, "The best film of the year."

When I heard about this new Star Wars novel, Death Troopers, I was too intrigued to pass it up. This is perhaps the first horror novel set in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490730262148 Thu, 5 Nov 2009 19:29:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490730262148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_490394586756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - Shiver is a fairly entertaining horror movie from Spain about a boy who moves into a rural town and finds something living in the nearby forest that likes to rip out people's throats and drink their blood. If you can handle the subtitles, it's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490394586756 Tue, 3 Nov 2009 00:57:45 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490394586756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_490345696900?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - Blood: The Last Vampire is a classic example of style over substance. With its lame acting and horribly overused CGI blood, this nearly plotless martial arts film turns into a series of fight scenes with very little story in between. It's based on... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490345696900 Mon, 2 Nov 2009 15:37:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490345696900?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_490272099972?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - Patient Zero is a very original novel that involves a terrorist plot to unleash a virus that turns people into zombies. It's sort of like Tom Clancy meets George Romero, and it works on every level.

The women are mostly treated like sex objects and the men are either bisexual or total horndogs. Pretty much all of them are on drugs.

It tells the entangled tales of a bunch of people who nearly all commit criminal acts. What attracted me to this 2003 indie movie was the stellar cast, which includes the late Patrick Swayze, Hilary Swank, Colin... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~488735346308 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 01:19:59 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_488735346308?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_488216104580?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author phungus - Altered is a really cool science fiction movie about some rednecks getting revenge on an alien. It's a low budget movie, but filmed in such a way that you can't really tell. Even the alien looks good, and it's not CGI, either!

It's really obvious in movies where the original got a theatrical release and the sequels went straight to video.
