I love Glu. They put out quality freemiums, as much quality as freemiums can get. Two of my most favorite freemiums, Deer Hunter and Frontline Commando, are Glu’s. They don’t shy from in-app purchases and intrusive ads. That’s confidence. That’s moxie. That’s how it is and that’s how it’ll be, that’s their motto. Actually, their… Read More »

Best part about a horror flick is what you don’t see. Imagination is stronger than any VFX or make-up or editing technique. This goes for monster films, too, like everyone’s favorite, Godzilla.
