Merry Christmas and happy whatever-you-celebrate, everyone! This year I gave myself a way way way overdue gift: the complete AKIRA series!


Before itch.io and PbtA and OSR, GURPS was one place to find weirdly specific, one-off games and settings!


Piranha Sharks was… something. WTF/minute ratio was high, production values low, just enough budget to seemingly get Kevin Sorbo for one day of shooting, and absolutely ridiculous premise! Still, it’s 31st on Kevin Kulp’s list of 130+ shark movies!
