Media Name: Drag Me To Hell Media Type: Movie Release Year: 2009 Director:  Sam Raimi Production Companies:  Ghost House Pictures Distributor:  Universal Pictures Runtime: 1 hour 39 minutes Finished Watching: 18th November 2022 My Rating: 6.5/10 Since I got into horror movies, I wanted to give The Evil Dead series a try but my parents suggested this movie saying that I'd like it more. It was okay. I think that Raimi's directing was really great and you could tell that he made it. I think that the horror was done quite well. I found some of the goofier scenes to be quite entertaining. The acting was good and I think that it worked well along with the practical effects which I wasn't expecting to see that much of given this movie's release year.

The UI looked nice and was pleasing to the eye. Also the classic Countdown theme song was present which is one of the best parts of the show. Basically the only problem was that the AI was kinda really easy even on medium mode. There were also a lot of rounds and it was unclear as to how many there were. Overall, this was a really good game based on a game show and .

Media Name: Family Fortunes Media Type: Video Game Release Year: 2009 Developers: Talkback Thames, Slam!, Freemantle Media Publisher: Mindscape Played on: Wii Completion Status: Any% Finished Playing: 14th October 2022 My Rating: 5.5/10 I kinda ended up deciding that I wanted to collect every single game based on a game show that released on the Wii in PAL regions. I'll only review the ones that I was actually able to finish at least a round of. This one I wouldn't say is based on a gameshow that I loved but I did watch it a bit years ago. Basically it's just the British version of Family Feud. The game was ok, the gameplay was average as unlike most Family Feud games where you enter your answer, this one you have a list of answers. I'd say that I would've rather entered the answers but this works too. The character models were all extremely ugly though that made them really funny to look and laugh at. You have the alternative of using Miis but I think it's funn...
