Defendor (DVD)

It is unfortunate that the home video release of Defendor came at a time when the media machine for Kick-Ass was kicking into high gear, as this film will unfairly be linked to the superhero / comedy genre in a way that it should not be. Arthur Poppington (Woody Harrelson) is an absolutely demented individual that thinks that ey is a superhero, shifting into the titular role with a panoply…

True Blood: The Complete Second Season (Blu-Ray)

True Blood has to be one of the most talked-about shows of this new decade, and this is for good reason. Where a number of vampire-themed shows and television shows have been hokey or more intended for a juvenile case, True Blood injects all the drama, sex, and violence that the genre demands. True Blood’s second season is able to succeed due to tremendous arcs and storytelling that were laid…

ModNation Racers (Playstation 3)

There are a number of reasons why individuals should seek out the Playstation 3 version of ModNation Racers. First off, it may just be the catchiest track-racing game since the original Mario Kart, and second off, the sheer amount of customization that players have over their cars and their surroundings far outstrips other racing titles. Just take for example the drivers themselves; where there are oftentimes customization numbers in the…

Pinnacle Raspberry (Vodka)

Pinnacle’s flavored line was one of the few that we had not had the opportunity to review at NeuFutur. Where we have reviewed countless other flavored vodkas in the time that we have had the alcoholic section active, Pinnacle’s Raspberry effort is special. Aside from being the first of its brand, it also is the first raspberry-touched spirit that we have covered. The seventy-proof spirit represents a fairly normally-fueled spirit,…

It has been a long while since I Had the chance to watch any of the original series of Dragonball.

Bacardi Torched Cherry (Rum)

It seems as if many cherry-flavored alcohols tend to taste like cough syrup. I’m not sure if companies feel emboldened to go forth and make a half-arsed cherry iteration of one of their products, but it is very common . However, as Bacardi has moved to reinvigorate their brand, whether it be through changing of the cap (to keep the vodka fresher) or giving a more up to date bottle…

DownTown Mystic – Standing Still (CD)

Fresh off their 2007 effort, “Read The Signs”, DownTown Mystic have just cut their latest album, “Standing Still”. “Standing Still” represents an evolutionary step forward for the act, while still maintaining cohesion amongst the disc’s thirteen cuts. “Backdoor” starts out with a bit of blues-tinged rock that allows Robert’s vocals to approach the timbre and quality of a Warren Zevon or Jimmy Buffett. Despite having a sound that would easily…
