I will totally play Arkham Horror, but only once. (Keee-rist is that game longer than its mechanics actually support. Like, it would be super fun and awesome if it ended in, say, ninety minutes, but it's been a four-to-six hour slog every time I've tried it.)
Also, "Pontypool" is awesome and bizarre and just ridiculously interesting on multiple levels. However, we got our copy (one of our Christmas presents, and I forget even who asked for it), and the box is stupid. Like, the back of it just has pictures as if it's Generic Zombie Movie #4765, and the front of it, I kid you not, has the tagline "Shut up or die." I mean, okay, yes, it involves a horde of infected people and creepy siege/violence like a zombie movie, and yes the infection involves the use of language, but I just don't get the marketing angle. Diehard zombie fans are going to find it dull and talky, and people who would *love* it will dismiss it out of hand unless they know what they're looking at. I dunno.
Aaaaaanyway, this story was fun and had some nicely inexplicable creepy bits. I drifted a little bit and wasn't entirely clear on what was a dream and what wasn't, but that was kind of the point, I suppose. I particularly liked the return to the motif of the state of decay of the body on the floor. Great note to end on.
