Answer to MFlorean: Kyle Gass is a veteran of The Actors’ Gang, a LA theater company. I’m guessing he was a go-between to provide “Terror TRAX” crew with actors. I don’t know if it’s been commented before, but a lot of the actors from the “DragonStrike” video have parts in “Track of the Vampire”; both John Boyle (Dr. Hemos) and Deron “Malibu” McBee were in that tape. Edie Mirman (the female TRAX officer) has a long history of voice acting in dubbed anime movies and TV shows; she did voices on “Robotech” and was the voice of the creepy computer in “Track of the Vampire.” Hell, even one of the writers of “DragonStrike” (Flint Dille) worked on “TRAX”!
In a weird bit of “six degrees of seperation” Kyle Gass co-starred with Shane Black (”Leathal Weapon” screenwriter) in Chris Matheson’s 1993 short film “Mike the Detective.” Matheson was a co-creator of the Bill and Ted characters, which means that “Terror TRAX: Track of the Vampire” is both vaguely related to “The Matrix” and Tenacious D.
One thing I dont get is that Snake had a crucifix around his neck as well as garlic and Holy water on his body…And he STILL get’s killed/vampirized by the vampires?!?!?!?
Sheesh, I guess those myths of using said instruments against the undead were lies told to him when he applied for the job.

I think the game is structured a lot like a “Choose Your Own Adventure” gamebooks; people died stupidly in those all the time. However because of space limitations the game only has 4 or 5 endings (unlike the 8-10 endings in a CYOA book) so there are these dumb points where Malibu could have survived but didn’t because it would have screwed up the storyline. Even for an FMV “Terror TRAX” is pretty limited; they would have been better off with a regular video game.
@ Strelnikov: Yeah, I know he is. I just wondered why Gass was specifically mentioned. Was he in the video? Did he facilitate the makers of the game getting in touch with The Actors’ Gang?
Law abiding citizen SUCKED. I knew from the previews that it was going to suck, but I went anyway because my dad wanted to see it. The plot’s stupid, the twist is stupid, the premise is stupid, and the characters are stupid. Jamie and Gerard should both be ashamed of themselves for being in that movie, and sent to the Black Hole (Blaggoe?).
Malibu on veronica mars. Here is sure looking grizzled at this point, so much so that even after dragon strike and trax I still didnt realize this was him in this episode (and im a huge veronica mars fan).
Hey, I think vampire tramp number three was Susan, Carol’s lesbian lover from friends. Have a look and check.
And that part when the blind woman says “Don’t worry I didn’t see you” has to be one of the most unneeded and terrible jokes ever uttered, topping the joke that NC mentioned to be the worst in NORTH so I’m giving this worst joke ever uttered in a game ever. WHY THE FUCK WOULD A WOMAN WHO JUST GOT HER EYES GAUGED OUT MAKE A FUCKING JOKE ABOUT IT!!!!!? Retards.
OMG I havent even watched a minute and i thought id die, OMG to me the black joke was the funniest fucking thing i heard all day ROFL!!!! “except if you were black” hahhahah thank you for making my day!!!!

lmfao, i love these
you should review something to do with wwe lol, you’re always using wrestling references
>>Anybody else think that the commercial lady doing the Manikin’s voice is hot? No… damnit…
You best be trolling. I want to punch that bitch in the fucking face. I can’t stand that godforsaken commercial anymore.
Spoony, there were two Twilight jokes in that review that showed obvious knowledge of the storyline…Please hand over your man-cards.
Otherwise, keep up the good work.

Waaaaaaiiiiiit a minute? How in the hell can you see what both officers see at 34:47 if NEITHER OFFICER IS WEARING THEIR CAMERA GLASSES?
Did that floating cyber-head remind anyone else of Hexadecimal from Reboot?
Loved the Clue reference near the end. Good one as always, Spoony.

The president demands MORE RIPPER.

Ok, “wtflol”, there are different years flying at me from all directions in this movie. I have no idea when it’s taking place.
Urk. Now my chronos hurts trying to build a timeline for this. >_>

Does anybody else think that the ending credits song sounds like a bad BIlly Talent song? Maybe that’s just me.
