Far Cry 5 (2018) When you’re sent to arrest a cult leader in hope county Montana, it all goes awry. You must fight back against the cult to save not only yourself but everyone controlled by the group! As a long time fan of the Far Cry games, I’d be lying if I didn’t expect big things from the game, but it delivered! It’s range of great open world, hunting, good trophy list, thought provoking story, memorable characters and a stunning soundtrack makes this game a success! The story (without spoiling it) is a moral dilemma, various dialogue moments in the game have profound meaning and eventually begins to make you ask... who is the the bad guy. The game feels like a take on modern America but also gives off walking dead vibes which is great! Graphically I was fairly impressed too, I played on ps5 and had very little qualms with it! The game really is brilliant, there’s so much to do, it’s endless in its possibilities and is fun all the while doing it! I didn’t want it to end. The platinum is easily attainable and is fully enjoyable to get! The problems for me arise in the form of the driving, which is in my opinion terrible, which seems to be a farcry staple. The AI, the buddies are great at times but can also be extremely frustrating. The worst of all though, is fall damage, my god, jumping can cause you to lose half health down a hill and considering how hilly the game is.... I also wasn’t sold on the far cry arcade, it’s good in concept but pointless really, the trophy list probably could have done without the online trophies too! One of the best about the game is the soundtrack though, it’s a powerhouse of emotion, tenacity and honestly takes the game up another level. So much so, I’ve found myself listening to it in the real world on many an occasion! Overall, Far Cry 5 is a huge success. There’s not much to say, I’d recommend it to anyone who wants a good game to sit down with for a while! #FarCry5 #FarCry5Review #Omareviews #GameReview #FarCry #FarCryReview #PSBlog #PSShare #SharePlay #Playstation #PS5 #HopeCounty #GamingPhotography #JohnSeed #FollowForReviews #Gaming #LockdownReview #Hammock #ApocalypseGame #GameReview #Reviewer #GamingLife https://www.instagram.com/p/CM4TMhnFPbm/?igshid=19f3omrmosj4f

Hellraiser 3: Hell On Earth (1992) When a journalist down on her luck is searching for the next big scoop, her luck is in, when she sees someone rushed into the ER with chains hanging out of him. Back when the first Hellraiser was released, it felt fresh, it gave a real feeling of mysticism that blurred the lines between the supernatural and the unknown. In number 2 it went too far the other way, in 3 it goes down the middle. Number 3 see’s pinhead trying to take over the human world now and it’s up to Joey, the journalist to save the world. It doesn’t really ever get going though, it’s love triangle, and sob stories with a couple of the characters aren’t that interesting, the story feels like at this point it’s clutching at straws. There’s still plenty of gore present, and the death scenes are still here, which makes it a little more bearable, but similar to number 2 it’s not enough to save it. I tell you one thing, the music budget must have been tiny, as the score is pretty much the same as the other 2 again! Either the sound team made off with a fat stack or were given some time off! There’s not much to be said for the acting Doug Bradley reprises his role as pinhead again and does well, but apart from that it’s your typical movie. The trilogy from Arrow Video is presented in a hardback case, and comes with 3 cases housing each disc. With some beautiful artwork and great quality blu rays it’s perfect for anyone who’s a fan’s collection! Looking back on the hellraiser trilogy, for me it’s a darn shame. Number 1 was incredibly engaging, a fun watch and left you wanting more. 2 didn’t deliver as well as it should, and was rushed, and by 3 it’s pretty much dead in the water. Overall, number 3 has some good ideas, and some great deaths but all in all, it’s the final Pin in the coffin for the Hellraiser franchise that deserved so much more! #Hellraiser3 #Hellraiser3HellOnEarth #Hellraiser #HorrorMovie #Omareviews #Hellraiser3Review #Pinhead #Cenobites #HorrorReview #Cinephile #Horror #MovieVillains #LockdownReviews #LockdownSuggestions #LockdownMovies #MovieReview #FilmReview #FollowForReviews #Reviewer #ArrowVideo #ArrowVideoReview https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQg4hYFiTn/?igshid=s1oac093hkaq

Devil May Cry 3 (2005) When Dante is sent a rude message from his brother, he aims to return the favour and discovers his brother has a devilish plan and Dante is part of it. After the poor 2nd game, I didn’t know what to expect when going into DMC 3. What I got was a lot better than number 2 but not quite as good as DMC 1! DMC 3 has a good story, one that’s at least on par with 1, it has some interesting characters, but I’d have liked to have explored the relationship between Virgil and Dante a little bit more. The gameplay is okay, it looks good and the game has some quirky boss battles. The problem for me is the games mission layout, the linear paths are unclear, the game can be extremely confusing and puzzles can leave you at ends for ages. There’s little to no clues to help you along the way and it makes, what is already a hard game even harder. Also, whoever is playing this game on any of the higher difficulties must be crazy, this game is hard enough! As soon as I got the easy option I took it, and even still some enemies were hard! The soundtrack is cool, it manages to build some great atmosphere in some of the cutscenes but the heavy metal in the game grates on you a bit after a while. After playing the HD trilogy, my overall reaction is that I enjoyed 1, 2 not so much, and 3 was decent. I’m not sure I’m sold on the DMC hype though! Overall, I think DMC 3 is a decent game, not quite as good as the first, it’s definitely for hardcore gamers and not for the light hearted! Don’t play if you want a game to unwind with! #DevilMayCry3 #DevilMayCry3Review #Omareviews #DevilMayCry3SpecialEdition #DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening #Dante #Virgil #GamingReview #PSShare #PSBlog #SharePlay #GamingPhotography #GameReview #Gaming #GamingReview #DevilMayCryHDCollection #DMC https://www.instagram.com/p/CH7rd64l3T9/?igshid=1xqnkike1053p

The Omen (1976) When Roberts wife’s child dies at birth, he makes a deal to take another in its place, little does he know, the unborn child bares deep dark secrets he never could have imagined. The omen is part of the 70’s emergence of horror movies which was largely made up of b movies that missed the mark due to just not having enough quality writing which was important with little special effects available. The omen is one of the ones that stood out, creating a good amount of tension, having a creep antagonist and really drawing out the first elements of the devil and the anti christ. Oddly enough there’s a lot of strange going ons that happened when filming the omen and it’s easy to see why! The film is good but by no means perfect and it’s lack of Damian keeps him mysterious but also fails to build him up into the demonic figure he really could have been. There’s a couple of scenes that he appears in that really showcase his imposing figure but they’re too few and far between. The score is brilliant and consistently manages to keep the film flowing with mixes between satanic ritualistic chanting and orchestral music which sets a haunting tone. Whilst the films big moments do well, some times there’s scenes that feel a bit drawn out for the sake of it, and some that could have kept the films flow a bit better. The omen brings high highs and some low, lows. The acting can’t be moaned about either and Gregory Peck plays his doting dad role well. Harvey Spencer was perfect as Damien which is why it’s disappointing that we didn’t get more of him on screen! Overall, The Omen is still worth watching for anyone who’s a fan of horror or movies in general, it does have some downtime, but you’ll still find plenty to creep you out and keep you engaged! #TheOmen #Damien #70sHorror #ClassicMovies #Omareviews #MovieReview #FilmReview #LockdownReview #Horror #HorrorMovie #HorrorReview #Cinephile #GregoryPeck #HarveySpencer #ClassicHorror #Antichrist #666 #666TheOmen #Devil https://www.instagram.com/p/CHiARgAF5qZ/?igshid=1bm9zo1fpgl1l

American Murder: The Family Next Door (2020) When Shannan and her 2 daughters go missing, police investigate what happened to find a chilling tale. Filmed using either footage from police cameras or Facebook videos etc, the whole documentary is made up of video that is part of the investigation which I liked on one hand but I think maybe contributed to its downfall too. Based on a true story in 2018, I’d heard a lot about American Murder, mostly good, but watching it, as bad as it sounds, I was left wanting. The story didn’t tie up loose ends, there were some big time jumps, and it certainly feels like there’s information missing. After looking online after watching, the internet all but confirmed this too, adding that there were a lot more chilling details that were left out, some that should definitely have been added. There’s only so much you can review in this as there’s no acting etc, but I think overall, I enjoyed the story, and found it thoroughly engaging, and if you like true crime dramas etc you’ll definitely like this, but it does have its moments that feel forgotten about which is also quite annoying! But is also a tale of a heartbreaking story that will definitely make you think. #AmericanMurder #AmericanMurderTheFamilyNextDoor #AmericanMurderTheFamilyNextDoorReview #AmericanMurderReview #Omareviews #Netflix #NetflixAndChill #NetflixReview #LockdownReview #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeDrama #TrueCrimeMovie #ChrisWatts #ShannanWatts #MovieReview #FilmReview #Cinephile https://www.instagram.com/p/CG2YBS_Fd9_/?igshid=n4nb1h9ny0yn

Airplane Mode (2020) Ana is a social media influencer and lives for fashion. When her world comes tumbling down around her, she’ll find a new life to appreciate that she never thought she would. Airplane mode is Netflix’s most watched foreign, non English film. Which doesn’t surprise me because I very rarely see any foreign films on there, set in Sao Paolo I believe and originally filmed in Portuguese, the film makes it clear early on that it’s dubbed as the lips don’t match at times at all but it’s not unwatchable! The story is one that at first you’ll look at and think it’s just another teen movie, but there’s actually so much more than layered throughout and the lessons come in more ways than one and will probably teach you a thing or two! The acting is good, I find it hard to form any comprehensive review on the acting as I watched it dubbed, so the voice acting was different to the original, the voice acting was as good as it needed to be though as well! There’s some really nice little tunes in here that give the film a bit of its authenticity and sound like classic little Portuguese/Brazilian songs on guitars! Overall, there isn’t a whole lot to say about airplane mode, but what it is, is a fun watch that will definitely surprise you. It teaches different values and can certainly open a few young eyes to the importance, or rather lack of, or social media and trying to impress everyone! #AirplaneMode #AirplaneModeReview #AirplaneModeNetlfix #Omareviews #FilmReview #Netflix #NetflixAndChill #MovieReview #LockdownReview #LockdownSuggestions #AirplaneModeMovie #AirplaneModeMovieReview https://www.instagram.com/p/CGkwpP4FG2V/?igshid=13ym6yinohdp5

The Evil Within 2 (2017) Detective Castellanos is pulled back into STEM when he finds out it’s the only way of saving his supposedly dead daughter, going back to hell for a second time he aims to save her and put and end to this all! After finally getting round to playing the first instalment of this series I was interested to see what the second game would be like, so I wasted no time in doing so! Evil Within 2 impressed me, the qualms I had with the first one were all but gone, the graphics were much improved, the combat system felt tighter and the overall character movement felt more complete. The story again, manages to improve on the first. Where the first failed to really establish a strong, clear narrative, this does so, keeping things a little more simple, but not losing the craziness that makes the game unique. The same can be said for the in game hints and linear progression, it’s so much easier to find where you’re going, to understand your mission and tasks and it comes from an easy to understand and clearer menu system. The games grotesque monsters are still at their most fearsome, and the game benefits in fear from toning down mass areas of combat for a more refined fighting experience. I do think the games stealth needs a little more work, and there were times, especially at the start of the game where stealth was all but pointless because I was spotted every time! But other than that, everything I’ve mentioned with a solid soundtrack and great voice acting to back it, this game is fantastic! Overall, if you’re looking for a survival horror to really sink your teeth into and be impressed by, this is the one for you! #TheEvilWithin #TheEvilWithin2 #PSBlog #PSShare #Omareviews #GamingPhotography #TheEvilWithin2Review #SebastianCastellanos #Gaming #GamingReview #Playstation #Xbox #PS4 #XboxOne #Bethesda #Zenimax #TangoGameworks #Horror #SurvivalHorror #HorrorGame #GameReviews #FollowForReviews #WhatDoYouThink https://www.instagram.com/p/CF12s5GlGb_/?igshid=18h9rtti1hp8u

Nekromantik 2 (1991) Monika digs up a familiar grave and is a necrophiliac, however her life is changing as she meets someone normal. Will she leave her past behind or is it something she can’t get past? After the mind destroying first film, I knew that I was ready for the second and in my head it couldn’t get any worse... thankfully... it didn’t! Nekromantik 2 feels like a shit version of its predecessor. It’s a drawn out affair that starts to take itself a bit more serious, trying to establish a bit of a more serious storyline. However what made the first what it is, is it’s outright lunacy, I felt I was being beat in a corner with no reprieve with the first, however this throws some pretty big punches, but also throws some pretty poor ones. The acting is average, there’s nothing here that stands out apart from maybe Monika setting her normality aside to lay with a corpse. The soundtrack isn’t as poignant as the first, and if you’re planning on watching this loud, don’t, various sex noise laden scenes will have everyone thinking you’ve forgotten to press mute! The soundtrack is also a lot less unimpressive than the first which follows the film of it feeling second best to the first one. That’s really all she wrote, my venture into the Nekromantik franchise is dead! I will never watch them again, but for what it’s worth at least number one shocked me, number 2 is literally that, second best! Overall, though not as shocking as the first instalment, Nekromantik 2 is a poor imitation that never really needed to be made! I wouldn’t recommend to anyone other than to see what happened after the first if you’re desperate! The limited edition from @arrowvideo comes again with Polaroids, a collectors booklet and housed in a hardback slipcover! The set contains 3 discs including the soundtrack! #Nekromantik2 #Nekromantik2Review #Nekromantik2LimitedEdition #Omareviews #Horror #ArrowVideo #CultHorror #JorgButtgereit #90sCult #90sHorror #ExploitationMovie #Nekromantik2MovieReview #BluRay #BluRayReview #BluRayCollection #BluRayAddict #BluRayCollector #LimitedEditionBluRay #VideoNasties #BannedMovies #Cinephile https://www.instagram.com/p/CBiQVSAFOEw/?igshid=10hv02lhiewsw
