My Thoughts on “Kakurenbo”

Image
  (This is the poster for Kakurenbo .)       In the game of Otokoyo, kids will disappear...it was either that, or ask the question, would you play a game of hide-and-go-seek in an abandoned city if it meant get chased by demons? This is Kakurenbo , the 2005 Japanese cel-shaded 3D animated supernatural horror short film 🇯🇵 that aired on Adult Swim. Though given that it has a poster, and the poster on the Wikipedia page says "theatrical poster," I guess this short was released in theaters in Japan 🇯🇵. I wasn't sure if I should consider this a cartoon or anime, but since it was made in Japan 🇯🇵, I guess I'll count it as an anime whenever I do the tags. Or labels as Blogger calls them. I know I said that Annihilation (2018) would be my next review after Colony (2026), and I still do fully intend on reviewing that movie, but I saw this movie on my list, I added it a year or so ago and I thought I would knock out something quick before I dive into Annihilation (2...

My Thoughts on "Colony" (2026)

Image
  (This is the English poster for Colony (2026).)        I finally I had enoug h free time to watch this movie. I was busy for the past few week, I kept going to Albuquerque for pretty much every day for the past week, and even today (Tuesday October 20, 2026) when I'm starting to write this. Obviously, last Wednesday (October 14, 2026), it was my grandma's payday, so went down to get some stuff we need for the house like paper towels, toilet paper (or as my grandma and apparently Costco calls it, "bath tissue"), Kleenex tissue, disinfectant wipes, trash bags, laundry detergent, softener, things like that. Then in the days after, we went back, either to get new supplies for our new addition (we're making a new addition to our house using the money 💵 from my dad's lawsuit) or to go the casino 🎰 for my grandma to either pick up one of her free gifts 🎁 that the casinos 🎰 giveaway every week, or to play her free promo. It's been like that for the past wee...

More Regarding “Eternal Darkness”

Image
  (This is the front cover of the soundtrack album to Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem . It was only sold through Nintendo Power, which was Nintendo's official magazine in the US 🇺🇸 that was run by Nintendo of America 🇺🇸, so it wasn't available in stores and was a limited edition kind of thing. The whole album is available to listen to YouTube in a playlist, which I'll link to right here 🔗. The reason why I'm using this image as the cover image for this post is that it's the first thing I think of when I think Eternal Darkness now because I listen to that soundtrack album all the time. And I didn't feel like using the video game cover for this. Especially since this isn't really about the game, or at least not entirely.)           I'm going to take a short break from the reviews, and write a post that's been a long time coming for this blog. You see, before my Internet 🛜 was disconnected for over three months and before I got bogged dow...
