  • Shadows of the Damned - Review & Discussion - Silent Evil Podcast 41 - Action Survival Horror

    Spencer and Cameron are going back to 2011 but with the 2024 Remastered version, of Shadows of the Damned. The Japanese super group of Suda 51 (No More Heroes and Lollipop Chainsaw), Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil and Devil May Cry), and music by Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill and Snatcher). Bringing together an action survival horror game that plays out like if Robert Rodriguez made an Evil Dead film. It action packed, crazy violent, with great attitude era humor and the perfect to the point storyline of Garcia Hotspur going into hell to save his girlfriend, Paula from the Lord of Demons, Fleming.


    Games really don't get better than this. Sadly, it wasn't a money maker for EA's experiment here in the Xbox 360 and PS3 era, so there never was a sequel. But at least giving it a remaster has put some new life into the adventure, and they fixed the one thing I was bummed that was missing in the original version. A full-on New Game Plus, where all your stats and points carry over. Making it have the full Resident Evil like experience of grand replay.


    So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.

  • Silent Hill Townfall - Review & Discussion - Silent Evil Podcast 40 Survival Horror

    Spencer and Cameron are talking all about the new Silent Hill game of Townfall. The experimental spin off that takes the gameplay into a first-person style, with a light pseudo-VR feel, but sadly without actual VR implication. Still, it's an interesting game premise, with a great story, intriguing characters, and fantastic puzzles throughout. The game does drop the ball a bit on some of the combat and the annoying one hit kill creature of the "Weight." Which it really should be called the Wait, cause sure doesn't mind hanging out in the same spot for a good long while. So, prepare for a bit of that hide and sneak style gameplay, that I know can sometimes be the make or break for different folks. But at least that is only a couple sections of the game.


    But at least the journey is still worth it, and it is an interesting test of changing up the combat heavy games of past Silent Hills. If you are a fan of the series or genre, you will most likely dig the majority of the game. We especially think that after how much SH F raised the bar on horror games in general, it's kind of hard to compete with that one you are trying something different. But the game is worth the ride still and only makes us more excited for what Konami is bringing out next.


    So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next. Though it is a bummer that this game isn't on Xbox and Switch 2. And since it's a PlayStation console exclusive it really should have been made for the VR 2. Just saying. That unit could use some more games now.

  • Conan The Destroyer (1984) Rewind Review - Via VHS Podcast OMOP

    Bringing you another out of the vault, off the rarity's album episode of Via VHS on OMO Presents with a classic, rewind review. Join us as we break it all down in this spoiler-filled discussion! Then get sidetracked as usual with other movies, games, comics, and life stories. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more deep dives into fascinating films.


    This time Wes and Spencer are talking about the Conan the Barbarian sequel of Destroyer! A film that changes tones but I believe still works out really fantastic but in a whole different way. If Barbarian was like the old books, Destroyer is more like the Marvel Comics version of the Adventurer. And in this new film, Arnold is joined by a party of all types of different skilled heroes. Like in a Dungeons and Dragons, or Diablo style adventure. There's a lot of good dark fantasy elements, excellent sets, and still a bunch of violent carnage, even if at times just a tad goofy.


    So, join us for more high adventure!

  • Resident Evil 3 Original & Remake Discussion Review - Silent Evil Podcast 39 Action Survival Horror

    Spencer and Cameron are going back in time to 1999 and looking at what may be the ultimate survival horror game from the golden age but really, of just all time, with Resident Evil 3. The game is firing on every cylinder, with a fantastic story, tons of enemies, great puzzles, dialed in controls, top tier graphics of the PS1, and of course the big new baddie of Nemesis (Who may be the make or break part of how much one loves RE3). But everything here is just the top-notch pinnacle of classic survival horror at about its zenith.


    And then if we are talking the original, the remake was bound to come up in conversation, so we just added em both together for our discussion. With the 2020 game coming off the heels of the RE2 Remake, the game that really started the horror gaming revival. The RE3 remake is fast paced, streamlined, yet still offers a lot of excellent moments while keeping the overall story intact and looking like classic Biohazard. Plus, it's one of the most replay able games out there to boot. Yeah, it is on the short time and could use a couple extra hours of story gameplay to fill in some missing areas like the clocktower and graveyard. Throw some extra puzzles in and the A/B decisions and it would have been pretty darn complete. But even still it's a hell of an experience and one of the best modern horror games still.


    So, we discuss the experience of playing both simultaneously and the tradeoffs in each. Along with how this story really wraps up the original RE games in a perfect trilogy, that is that was all they wrote, the story comes to a solid conclusion. RE3 is a game that any horror fan and especially Resident fan needs to give the good college try to and the bonus is how easy it is to pick up both the original and remake. They practically give them away.


    So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.

    Spencer and Wes are going back to the Australian western classic, Quigley Down Under from 1990. Starring Tom Selleck, Laura San Giacomo, and Alan Rickman. Directed by Simon Wincer. The film is action packed, fun yet with some hard drama and emotional moments, filled with great history, and a great story to boot. Shows why this film has held a high regard for many of years.

  • Black Dog (1998) - Rewind Review - Via VHS Podcast - OMOP

    Spencer and Wes are going back to the 90s for a rewind review of the classic Patrick Swayze, Randy Travis, and Meatloaf trucker action flick, Black Dog. A total classic in the vein of Roadhouse, Smokey and the Bandit, and Convoy. With over-the-top great action scenes and a story that almost takes off too fast. A somewhat lost in time picture that really might be the top 5 of Patrick Swayze films.

  • Signalis - Review & Discussion - Silent Evil Podcast 38

    Spencer and Cameron are talking all about the survival horror indie game from 2022, Signalis. That I like to describe as, "a sci fi pulp horror story about lesbian androids in Space!!! Trapped in a nightmare and fused with German expressionist story and anime aesthetics." A story is still on the weird, wild, slightly confusing, but nonetheless intriguing. With a slightly isometric top-down view and all the creepy horror vibes you'd expect in a survival horror. Along with great puzzles, haunting enemies, and weapons to show em' all who's boss as we make our escape. Even if you could desperately use a couple more slots for your inventory.


    The nice thing is that the game fuses what is best in survival horror while adding a lot of its own identity to make it feel fresh and not just a knock off homage. It's unique in the way of other great independent horror games of recent, like Conscript and Crow Country. It sometimes even feels like taking Enemy Zero, dialing it into the max and running with it as far as possible. And that's a cool thing.


    The games just pure greatness, the story keeps you engaged even if there's a lot going on but it is more of that subconscious thinking type of experience. Where it really sticks with you even after you have completed a run. The graphics are awesome too and it sometimes even has this FMV, Sega CD like environments you go through too.


    So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.

  • Metal Gear Solid 4 Collection 2 Review & Discussion - Old Man Orange Podcast 729

    Spencer, Josh, and Cameron are talking all about the new Metal Gear Solid Collection and specifically MGS4 Guns of the Patriots finally making its way onto other consoles and coming at us in high resolution glory! The big dog of the PS3 era (if not the number one exclusive of that system) has been waiting 18 years for a supped-up version and one that Xbox, Nintendo, and PC players can finally enjoy too.


    The game is just as good as we remember, even if there may be a few odd plot holes and questions in the mix. But this one is solid as ever in the Quadrilogy of MGS 1-4. We go into the characters, the philosophy, the gameplay, levels, and how this whole story wraps itself up for one of the most epic decades in gaming hands down. Plus, talking about the other Metal Gears around this one too.


    So, join Old Snake, with Otacon, Meryl, Colonol Cambell, Naomi, Liquid Ocelot, and all the other returning characters along with Big Boss himself and indulge this game that is almost a movie first and foremost. With gameplay that takes Snake Eater farther and shows a proto-MGS 5 style of controls.
