Movie Review: The Signal
Written & Directed by David Bruckner, Dan Bush, Jacob Gentry
Starring Anessa Ramsey, AJ Bowen, Justin Welborn, Scott Poythress, Sahr Nguajah
Rated R
Release date: Feb. 22, 2008
Imagine if every fleeting paranoia or subconscious concern you'd ever entertained had been instantly ratified as true in your mind. Further imagine that any inhibitions you might have regarding doing harm to another human being had been completely removed. It's New Year's Eve in Terminus City and all communication devices have spontaneously begun to emit a chaotic visual and sonic pattern which does just that to its residents. Nearly everyone within range of this unknown broadcast spontaneously becomes homicidally insane and begins indiscriminately killing whomever raises their ire. Traditionally, New Year's is a time of shrugging off old ways and welcoming new beginnings, but for the people of Terminus, it is instead likely to be their last day on earth. This new year brings the Signal and with it, complete and total madness...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

'Fanboys' Re-Cut Incites a Rebellion
Well, looks like there actually might be more that could suck about this film -- WAY MORE. Like the fact that it started out as an homage to Star Wars fandom, but the word out now -- first reported by AICN, then confirmed by Cinematical -- is that's the movie has been completely changed...continue reading this article at Geeks of Doom!

Cover price: $3.50; Available Now
The zombie genre has permeated the comic book industry the world over, nearly saturating the market with two-dimensional undead. Big names like Robert Kirkman and even Warren Ellis have gotten into the act, with The Walking Dead, penned by Kirkman, as the ultimate in graphic fiction, the soap opera zombie film that doesn't end, while Ellis' Black Gas takes enough narrative turns to give a reader whiplash...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

With humor being so subjective, it’s hard to find a comic who can appeal to any audience. Regardless of your taste in stand-up though, there should be at least one comic in the line-up of The Best of Comedy Central Presents Uncensored that you won’t find funny...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!
Weekly Comic Book Pulls for 02-13-08
The most anticipated return of the month, at least for me (no offense Alan Davis fans). After more than a decade off, (was I really in high school when the last issue came out) finally we get to see the end of the series. The only problem is, it's been too long, and while I remember the premise and creator Rob Schrab does a good job of bringing new readers up to speed, I wish I could catch up with the complete story. Schrab's art still has all the style and excitement we're used to, and fans of the series will enjoy this. The story is pretty light, and is mostly catch up, but it sets the rest of the story up and there are some good moments. If you've never read Scud before, wait a few months, and pick up the omnibus, as I plan to do anyway. That's pretty much my highest level of approval, because I hate to buy things twice, but I'll be doing it for this series. ---4 out of 5

Witchblade. A comic I had heard rumblings about.
When Geeks offered me the opportunity to review this, I jumped at the chance to review this trade paperback, because it was Numero Uno. This meant I would have some semblance of a story to start with (it's a new story, although it starts as #80; this TPB collections #80-85). It also gave me the prospect of looking into something from Top Cow...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!
