Last Sunday, I reviewed Doctor Mordrid, an early 1990s B-movie where the scriptwriters lost the rights to Doctor Strange and tried to rewrite the film to get around this, resulting in a somewhat odd but enjoyable movie that was heavily reminiscent of Doctor Strange but without being legally close enough for lawyer-fu to take place. So… Continue reading strange delights
shit film sunday: the strange tale of doctor mordrid
So, uh… it’s been quite a while without a blog post until now despite my promises to post regularly. I guess I’ll have to work on that… I have a passion for bad movies. Give me a choice between one of the newest CGI-laced blockbusters, or an obscure sci-fi flick from the 80s with terrible claymation… Continue reading shit film sunday: the strange tale of doctor mordrid
really new year, really new leaf, really new blog

This is such a time for me, and what better time than to resurrect an old project such as this? I’ve also… Continue reading new year, new leaf… new blog?
visual studio meet SDL2, SDL2 meet visual studio…
I’ve been doing my development work in Linux for a while now, and doing that you get used to certain luxuries. One of these is the packaging system that comes installed with various Linux distros – thousands of useful applications and libraries are just a sudo apt-get install or sudo yum install away, and the… Continue reading visual studio meet SDL2, SDL2 meet visual studio…
back to the beginning…
This title could refer to two things: either this blog, which is an on-again off-again project of mine, or the current state of pop culture. On the former, life has gotten in the way and I’ve let it gather dust, and on the latter we’re talking about the current Hollywood strip-mining of comic book culture… Continue reading back to the beginning…
