West of the city Cluj-Napoca, Romania lays the 729-acre forest of Hoia Baciu. The forest over the years has been used by many as a way to escape the city and wander through nature.

In 2002 fans of the movie The Thing where able to partake in a new chapter of the film’s universe by playing the 3rd person survival horror game, ‘The Thing’ where players take on the role of Captain Blake, a Special Forces soldier sent in with a rescue team to find survivors at the doomed U.S. Outpost 31 from John Carpenter’s film. Long story short, the events of the film and this game were part of some nefarious plot by a Biotechnology company called Gen-Inc who has subterranean research facilities all around Antarctica studying the alien organism in which a certain strain of the “Virus” was developed to be used in Biological Warfare. The game surprisingly did very well in the ratings and in 2003 the game’s developing company, Computer Artworks, were in the works to make a sequel to the game picking up where it left off, Blake flying off in a helicopter with R.J. MacReady, the protagonist from

“Stranger Things” is a series that is certainly…inspired (cough a rip-off cough) by supernatural cinema of the 80’s. It’s a safe bet that series creators and show runners the Duffer Brother’s know big hair generation horror pretty well, but how does series star Finn Wolfhard hold up? Well, he know’s more horror than most 14 year olds. Knowing what “The Shining” is isn’t bad for a moppy haired pre-teen, especially when most kids these days can name more emojis than they can books. Maybe Stephen King is a little mature for the teenie bopper crowd, but hey, I read Stephen King and middle school and turned out fine….I think.

Like most fans, I am now going through withdraws after finishing the second season of Netflix’s mega-hit series ‘Stranger Things’. So now the countdown begins season 3.

Even if we wanted to hop into the action faster, we couldn’t,” says Matt Duffer. “Our kids are aging. We can only write and produce the show so fast. They’re going to be almost a year older by the time we start shooting season three. It provides certain challenges. You can’t start right after season two ended. It forces you to do a time jump.” Then he added, “It’s a long way of saying that yeah, we’re going to do a time jump.” It makes sense. The kids that star in the series are growing up quickly. Plus, since the Upside Down was beaten back it would take time for
