Somebody’s Knocking – Final Girl – A Knock at the Door Review

Final Girl - A Knock at the Door - Wingard Cottage - Special Occasion

Horror movies are not really my forte (though I have to say that you should definitely check out Dust Bunny now if you can! It’s great and not really much of a horror movie, but it’s still fun). Jump scares and creepiness while watching… Continue Reading “Somebody’s Knocking – Final Girl – A Knock at the Door Review”

November 2025 Gaming

Rock Hard 1977 - Board

I knew November would be much better than October for my gaming, because there’s a really nice 4-day convention in November. I didn’t expect that it would be this much better, though! In November, I managed to play 36 games a total of 57… Continue Reading “November 2025 Gaming”

RIP (Revenge in Peace) – Final Girl – Slaughter in the Groves Review

Final Girl - Slaughter in the Groves - Inkanyamba Board

One of the big horror movie tropes over the last 50 years (going back to Poltergeist, which was the first horror movie I saw, even if it was only PG-13) is the “oh my god, we’re building on/visiting/desecrating some religious space/burial ground/whatever” reason for… Continue Reading “RIP (Revenge in Peace) – Final Girl – Slaughter in the Groves Review”

It’s Moving Through the Vents! – Final Girl – Into the Void Review

Final Girl - Into the Void - USS Konrad without any pieces on it

One of the classic horror movie franchises is the Alien series, or at least the first one. The second one, I would almost count as an intense action movie with some horror elements. And then things got silly. Anyway, it’s not surprising that the… Continue Reading “It’s Moving Through the Vents! – Final Girl – Into the Void Review”

October 2025 Gaming

30 - BG Stats - Oct 2025 - Grid

Who knew that after my 1000th post celebration, the next one would just be a regular “hey, what did Dave play last month?” post? In other words, we’re back to normal. The cake has been eaten, the ado has been stored so nobody can… Continue Reading “October 2025 Gaming”

Dying on Strings – Final Girl – Carnage at the Carnival Review

Final Girl - Carnage at the Carnival - Multiple Puppets

As a kid, I was never really that fond of puppets. It’s not that they creeped me out, necessarily. They weren’t like clowns. I just never really went to puppet shows to be entertained, and Pinocchio was not one of my favourite Disney cartoons.… Continue Reading “Dying on Strings – Final Girl – Carnage at the Carnival Review”

He Comes For You in Your Nightmares – Final Girl – Frightmare on Maple Lane Review

Final Girl - Frightmare on Maple Lane - Dr. Fright

Nightmare on Elm Street was one of the few horror movies I could really stomach as a teenager (I’m not really a fan of horror movies, especially with jump scares and the like). There was just something about Freddy Krueger that was cool, plus… Continue Reading “He Comes For You in Your Nightmares – Final Girl – Frightmare on Maple Lane Review”

September 2025 Gaming

29 - BG Stats - Sept 2025 - Grid

September was a weird month of gaming, mainly because I had a huge number of plays compared to August, but actually fewer games! Part of that was because the final two Sunday game days were dominated by a huge game of Wonderland’s War (details… Continue Reading “September 2025 Gaming”

It Could Be Anyone! – Final Girl – Panic at Station 2891 Review

Final Girl - Organism - Monster

Anybody with any horror movie knowledge has heard of The Thing, directed by John Carpenter. This 1982 movie takes place on an Antarctic base with some kind of organism or creature inhabiting people and slowly assimilating all of the members of the scientific team… Continue Reading “It Could Be Anyone! – Final Girl – Panic at Station 2891 Review”

New to Me – June 2025

Skara Brae - Tableau and Workers

Ah, June. Halfway through the year (at the end of it anyway) and it’s good to take stock of where I am in my boardgaming. I’ve played more than half again the number of unique games as I did last year, meaning I (hopefully)… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2025”
