There are three certitudes in life: death, taxes and that the Predator handshake scene is always satisfying to watch.
This movie is basically saying that video game nerds are broken, inept people that will one day usher a dystopia if we let them create companies.
Read an exclusive excerpt from Seb Doubinsky’s upcoming novel Missing Signal. A Meerkat Press novel. It will be available on August 28, 2018.
Doubinsky’s greatest talent is on display here: he’s remapping the way you think about the world.
Crash is the novel about people fucking in car crashes. It’s disturbing, low-key terrifying and prescient.
This movie is beyond terrible. It is dumb and insulting in the worst possible ways. I'm spoiling the ending in this review, so it'll spare you the two hours.
The B movies aren't dead! Mindgamers is so earnestly terrible that it's a riot to watch. Unfortunately starring Sam Neil.
If you haven't read Jordan Krall yet, this is both a great and terrible place to start. I could say that of all his books really, but this one holds up to his reputation.
There is a little bit of everything to Glenn Gray's Transgemination, from Carl Sagan to B-movies. It's over before it starts but it's fun nonetheless.
Blade Runner 2049 is not the revolutionary sequel we were all waiting for, but it almost is? We're a couple of suit-wearing execs away still, but there's a lot to like about it. Directed by MY BOY Denis Villeneuve. Written by Hampton Fancher. Starring Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford and Beared Leto.
My review of Nik Korpon's novel The Rebellion's Last Traitor. Published by Angry Robot Books.
My review of Kieran Shea's new and exciting space opera Off Rock, coming out on April 18. This one might be my favorite of his yet.
The fans have spoken! Here is my first audience suggestion review: Pounded in the Butt by My Own Butt, by the immortal Chuck Tingle.
My review of Brian Evenson's excellent post-apocalyptic novel Immobility, which I urge any critical thinking apologist to pick up.
Interview with Brian Evenson, author of Last Days, Immobility, The Warren and many others. We discussed his legacy, genre fiction, institutions and contemporary audiences and more!
Why wasn't The Abyss as popular as other James Cameron movies? Read my review of this cult classic to find out how intellectually ambitious this project was for a blockbuster film.
Seb Doubinsky's novella Omega Gray couldn't be any more different than his previous work White City, yet it's smart and colourful allegory of the power of ideology.
Arrival is Denis Villeneuve's most ambitious Hollywood movie to date. It challenges the boundaries of mainstream audiences. Starring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker.
I saw the third season of Black Mirror last week. It was pertinent and challenging despite its ups and downs. Charlie Brooker may not be the author we make him out to be, but he does have a thing or two to say about out shitty consumerist habits.
