Once the most derided type of film adaptation, video game movies have been seeing a renaissance as of late. So what better time to borrow the conventions of a once-derided medium to tell a story all your own? In this Mini-BOP, Mike and Jamie gush about the new film by genre filmmaker Jason Trost, The Waves of Madness, the world’s first side-scrolling motion picture. With a premise that could have outstayed its welcome in minutes, Waves draws you in with its loving pastiche of PS1-era survival horror, and keeps you with a sincere Lovecraftian mystery at sea, with the best monster design we’ve seen all year. You’ll never look at load screen monologues the same way again!
