Horrible fun / Exhuming Ga-Rei -Zero-
Read More →: Horrible fun / Exhuming Ga-Rei -Zero-If just because there’s something exciting about proving yourself wrong every now and then, I’m trying to watch a bunch of recent series that I’ve snubbed or otherwise ignored in past.

Demonic rumbles as claymores get squished in episode 21

Tokko – 1 – Horror, gore and siscon (in that order, repeat)
/
/ ReviewsRead More →: Tokko – 1 – Horror, gore and siscon (in that order, repeat)I’m a horror fan, have been all my life and aside from the claret soaked GANTZ, I’ve seen nothing lately that’s been up to quenching my thirst for such sheer bloody antics. That is until I saw the first episode of TOKKO. Before launching into horror fan hyperbole, I’ll state right now that TOKKO isn’t…
