Spencer and Dave are going back to 1998 to talk all about the first movie in to start off the golden age of comic book movies, Blade. Starring Wesley Snipes, Stephen Dorff, and Kris Kristofferson in the vampire hunting and fight world of the Marvel Comics character. Directed by Stephen Norrington and written by David S. Goyer. Taking the comics serious enough and making the film full R rated. Something that needs to come back again.

We step into the Blade's universe and see the start of the early 2000s era of black leather, stylish action, and a pumping techno soundtrack. The Matrix would add to this and of course many other films will follow like Underworld, Resident Evil, Equilibrium, Aeon Flux, and even X-Men to name a few. A very unique time in cinema that is almost lost at the moment.

Join us as we break it all down in this spoiler-filled discussion! Then get sidetracked as usual with other movies, games, comics, and life stories. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more deep dives into fascinating films.

Spencer and Cameron dive into the eerie depths of SOMA in this episode of the Silent Evil Podcast, taking a retrospective look at Frictional Games’ unforgettable 2015 underwater survival horror experience. From its tense gameplay to its deeply philosophical story, we break down everything that makes SOMA a standout in the genre. Set in a haunting, post-apocalyptic underwater facility, the game challenges players with psychological horror, stealth-based survival, and a narrative that asks one of the most profound questions in gaming: what does it truly mean to be human?

Played from a first-person perspective, SOMA immerses players in a world of decaying machinery, robotic monstrosities, and thought-provoking choices. There’s no combat—only hiding, running, and solving environmental puzzles to survive. Along the way, scattered notes, audio logs, and atmospheric details flesh out a world where consciousness and identity are constantly in question. Whether you played the original deadly version or opted for the later-added “Safe Mode,” the emotional weight and existential dread remain fully intact. Join us as we explore how SOMA uses its dual protagonists—one led by logic, the other by emotion—to craft a horror experience that sticks with you long after you put the controller down.

So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.
