It’s safe to say my history with the Far Cry franchise is a little… spotty. As a PC gamer back in the early 2000′s I loved the original Far Cry game. It came at a time when I was heavily into first-person shooters and, for me, the PC was and still is, the best way to play an Fps. So when the Far Cry series moved to consoles I was a little less then enamoured with the results.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed Far Cry 2 but the rest of the games left me cold. That is apart from the Wii iteration, Far Cry Vengeance. On a console full of shovelware and kid-friendly titles, Vengeance was a joy to behold – even if it did look like a step backwards graphically. Of course more recently we had Far Cry 3 – a game which, despite trying my damnedest with, I just could not enjoy.

Time Table
Written by Eben Kandel
Directed by Mark Stevens
USA, 1956
The longevity of television’s Dexter speaks to audience interest in and creative potential of the premise in which an authoritative figure, a Bloodstain Pattern Analyst in the case of the Showtime drama, commits the very crimes he or she is specialized in thwarting. The morally ambiguous nature of said character, the possible venues to create tension, the commentary on institutions dedicated to crime investigation, and more are ripe for commentary. Films have also concerned themselves with the subject, such as the Italian psychological drama Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion and the film under review this week, 1956’s Time Table, directed by and starring Mark Stevens.
On a train heading toward Phoenix, Arizona in the wee hours of the morning, Dr. Paul Brucker (Wesley Addy) is called into duty when someone is announced gravely ill in one of the nearby cabins.
