Games On My Radar 2: Electric Boogaloo!!

Back at it again with some games that I’d love to have!! Or play. Either works 😂😂😂

Campy Creatures (+ Expansion)

Another game by the company that did Space Park and Control, which automatically piques my interest. I’m interested especially because of the artwork—Keymaster Games has a fantastic track record when it comes to creating quality artwork as far as I can tell. Throwing campy horror movies into the mix? Yes, please!!

King of 12

Card games with dice intrigue me—and this one has twelve sided dice, my beloveds!! One of the most fun kinds of dice imo. I like the idea of card effects affecting the value of dice rolls. The cancelling out of results if they’re the same, too. Really, the entire thing sounds like my kind of filler game—and filler games are a genre I really like :]

Aurum

Trick-taking gameplay intrigues me!! My only drawback would be the player count—I don’t often play 3-4 players irl, so if I had this one, I wouldn’t be pulling it out often, save for special occasion gatherings maybe.

I love the alchemy theme though!! And the card designs are delightful. I’m very, very tempted to pick it up for that reason alone, just to have it!

Martian Fluxx

Wouldn’t a Martian themed gaming night be so fun? Martian Dice, Martian Fluxx, Martian Chess? It’s a bit of a dream of mine now—a little dream, but a dream all the same. Maybe some day.

Otherwise, Martian Fluxx’s theme is what interests me—it would be interesting to play a version of Fluxx where everyone’s playing as Martians against Humans!

Orion Duel

I’m interested in this one because of BGA—it feels like a flight of fancy at the moment, but I figured I’d include it because the game is just so intriguing. It’s got a nice space theme and multiple ways to win. I’m definitely going to be playing it more on BGA. When it comes out irl? Well, maybe I’ll check it out that way, too.

For now, it’s joining the other abstract games like Qawale and Homeworlds that I want to play more of on BGA. This might be a new era for me 😂😂💕

Game of the Month: Campy Creatures (October 2022)

Game of the Month: Campy Creatures (October 2022)

It is spooky time and while not all games will scare you, the theming is where I like to look to from monsters roaming/chasing to the fun camp. That’s where this one comes in, I love its camp and gameplay; it makes it that much easier to get it to the table. Let’s go mad scientists! (more…)

Mutants of Cherry Creek (pt 2)

Some MORE mutated critters from my YA lovecraftian horror comic set in 90s New England.

Mutagenic ooze is seeping into the town of Cherry Creek and mutating normal New England wildlife into terrifying monsters. The Cherry Creek Middle School Paranormal Investigation Club sets out to discover, catalogue, and tame all of the mutated cryptids and hopefully find the source of the toxic ooze before it permanently infects everything (and everyone) in town.

Northern Short Tailed Shrew — one of only a few venomous mammals

Brown and Black Bears - walk on two legs, climb trees, intelligent

Eastern Crayfish - present in the fossil record for at least 300 million years Eastern

Moose - huge but stealthy

Eastern Newt (Red Eft) — can secrete a strong smelling chemical from glands in its skin

At first, the animals just seem weird, strange, a little “off”. Over time, exposure to the ooze causes these creatures to get bigger, meaner, and much more dangerous. (all the beginning stage creatures shown here are newly mutated, their final stages are after only a few weeks of exposure)

I also love folklore and cryptids and I really love the idea of this club of dorky middle school cryptid hunters assigning names like “bigfoot”, “mothman”, and “hodag” to these monsters so can try and contextualize something they don’t really understand. Soon the club realizes these aren’t fun isolated critters but symptoms much larger impending ecological disaster!

I picture it like pokemon evolution, going from a cute water turtle to a kaiju which is a lot for a ten year old to handle.

Which is your favorite? What cryptid would you wanna see? What animal should I “Cryptify” next? lmk what you think!

Every year for the month of October I make a movie calander- one horror movie a day, every day, for the entire month. My problem now, is that after three years of doing this- I'm starting to..... well, run out isn't the right way to put it... but it's starting to feel like I've seen most of the big hitters.

So the question I'm throwing out there is:

Fans of horror, what movies would you reccomend for this year's October watch?

I'm looking for anything and everything. I will watch silent black and white films. I read subtitles and I'm not opposed to hunting down a niche foreign horror/thriller. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE SPOILERS I would like to go into the movies blind (trigger warnings are very welcome, though)

On June 24, 2017, House on Haunted Hill was screened on the Creature Features revamp.

Here's some new Vincent Price art!

SPOOKIES!!!!

I want to date Leonardo Dicatboyo so bad! He's the main star!

i love horror but i do not want to watch "midsommar" or "hereditary" because they are not my sort of thing. there are not enough creatures in them. i think midsommar has a bear or some thing but that isn't enough

[cluepoke-archive]

Hmmm... sonic The Hedgehog and Resident Evil crossover. I know we can make this reality

[alyxdrawsthings]

I love them, y’all 💖🖤

one detail that i love is that lisa is less doctor frankenstein but more mary shelley despite the movie's title. lisa's introduction is her stone rubbing the creature's headstone while mary learned to write using her mother's gravestone. lisa isn't a scientist she's a seamstress which is closer to mary's profession as a writer. they're women who lost their mothers at a young age and were outcasts in their respective societies. both having an odd relationship with death, finding love and comfort in it. mary connects with her mother through her grave like how lisa does with the creature's. at it's core it's a movie about grief and the non-finality of death.

it's also a campy movie about a devoted zombie romantic who would chop dicks off for their goth wife which i think stays true to the spirit of mary shelley.

I need all classic monsters to be made into Lisa Frankenstein style of movie. Dracula, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Wolfman, Invisableman. Hell even Jekyll & Hyde.

I need 70s/80s/90s. Campy. Unhinged girlies who are also monster fuckers.
