A cheap and creepy delight that begins lovably ropey and then hits rather good with spooky mood to spare.

Bill Hader doing an impression of Oliver Reed explaining the difference between acting on stage & acting on film. Love how he cracks Paul Giamatti up.

They added DRM to the steam release of Dino Crisis 1&2. Which is really weird since you can get it for the same price, DRM free, from GOG. Why did they do this?
