We've heard the argument that video game films are bad because "games focus on the gameplay, not on the plot". That may be true, but video games do offer the player fascinating worlds to explore. So what if you just adapt the world to a film, and not a specific game? Sounds like another tangent series to me!
We begin our latest journey with "The Witcher - Nightmare of the Wolf", an anime adapting the game (or the Netflix series, OR the books... yeah, we know) about magic-infused monster hunters and their time at the worst summer school ever.
CONTENT WARNING: extreme gore, bio-augmentation, institutionalized child murder, mild language.
Featuring the voices of Marc Athanas, Wayne Bressette, and Nick Mohr.
Our theme music was composed by Jack Feerick, and performed and realized by Sam Feerick.
