Reviews of ‘Dead Island 2’, ‘Rewind or Die’, and More in ‘The Inventory’ [Safe Room Podcast]
Before diving into last month’s edition of The Inventory, Safe Room’s review show, check out our 100th episode in which we name our top 10 Resident Evil games!
For this month’s edition of The Inventory, Safe Room’s review show, Neil and I have amassed another list of notable AAA and indie horror experiences!
We tackle the PSX horror of Rewind of Die, discuss the Norse dark fantasy world of Bramble: The Mountain King, tackle the friendship and nostalgia of Varney Lake, and Dead Island 2‘s penchant for splattery gore, amongst a few others!
We are also pleased to announce that Horror Bytes: our bite-sized indie horror segment, will become a weekly feature! New episodes of Safe Room will continue to be released on Mondays, while Horror Bytes will be released every Thursday! The Horror Bytes format will be slightly tweaked, as we will either highlight a few bite-sized horror games or interview developers. And such is the case with this coming Thursday’s Horror Bytes, as Neil and I chatted with the developers and composer behind 10 Dead Doves!
Next week we will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of Metro: Last Light, so feel free to tweet us @SafeRoompod or email us at SafeRoomPod@gmail.com, to share your thoughts on this post-apocalypse sequel!
Safe Room is a weekly horror video game discussion podcast with new episodes every Monday on
iTunes/Apple, Sticher, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and Linktree for additional streaming services.

Here at Halloweenies, we love practical effects—there’s a reason why one of our categories is called “Great Graphics.” Well, consider this a full-length “Great Graphics” episode, where we talk to the effects team behind the titular puppet of Pinocchio Unstrung, in theaters this Friday. As the latest installment in the Twisted Childhood Universe, Pinocchio ups the franchise’s game by featuring a villain that’s entirely practical, created with a stunning mix of animatronics and, of course, puppetry.
So, take a seat at the workbench for a spirited interview between Halloweenie co-host Dan Caffrey and MASTERS FX President and Founder (and special effects legend in his own right) Todd Masters, Pinnochio Lead artist and Designer Kiana Larson, and Lead Animatronics Joshua Raymond. Learn how they pulled off such a dazzling and terrifying puppet, where they think the effects industry is headed, the movies that made them want to be FX artists, a few tidbits of Nightmare On Elm Street history, and more.
Pinocchio himself might even pop by for an appearance.
Stream the episode below and get tickets now for Pinocchio Unstrung. New to the Halloweenies? Catch up with the gang by revisiting their essential episodes on past franchises such as Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Scream, The Evil Dead, Chucky, Alien, and Universal Monsters. This year? Hellraiser AND The Omen.
