Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 2 Review – ‘Psycho’
Martin Carr reviews the second episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… If Scream had been entertaining this week or even mildly diverting, then it may have deserved to steal Hitchcock’s title. If there had been some decent progressions, diversionary bloodletting and clever segues this conversation might have been different. However what ‘Psycho’ […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 3 Review – ‘Once Upon a Time in Wayward Pines’
Martin Carr reviews the third episode of Wayward Pines season 2… Building character, creating backstory and broadening the creative canvas sounds pretentious mainly because it is.

Video Game Review – Soul Axiom
Martin Carr reviews Soul Axiom… Hours of wandering around in a Tron induced landscape is not for everyone. Being dropped into a scenario where electrical lightning storms, mountainous peaks and huge charging pillions dominate might put some off. Similarly not really having any instructions might also be considered by some to be a hindrance. If […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 2 Review – ‘Blood Harvest’
Martin Carr reviews the second episode of Wayward Pines season 2… I was wrong and admit it. Whatever my misgivings about last week’s opener things have changed down in Wayward Pines. That needless re-tread which constituted episode one, left no time for progression, proved noticeably useless and removed any tension with devastating efficiency. There was […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 1 Review – ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’
Martin Carr reviews the first episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Funded by Netflix but carrying the MTV logo Scream emerges from the rubble of season one where it earned renewal, with some serious backing and bulked up production value. Now it resides on the cable equivalent of HBO, we get a full […]
