Review: Corpse Party: Book of Shadows pens a novel of blood and gore

Movie Review: Identity Thief has an identity crisis
It’s a shame that this movie doesn’t know when to quit.
Review: Hitman HD Trilogy doesn't entirely hit the mark, but still completes the kill
You could argue that there are better compilations out there, but that still doesn’t mean that Hitman HD Trilogy is a bad collection.
