One of the draws to this game is that once you finish the main storyline, you can then explore community-created levels or even create your own levels that anyone can play. The floaty jump mechanics of your character take a bit to get used to, but that’s part of the fun and suspense. The end of levels are often filled with laughter and merriment or, in my case, friends talking about who was sacrificed in order to obtain one of the many collectibles scattered throughout the world. 5.)

Just be sure to pair up with a friend who doesn’t use the same weapons as you do, otherwise “friendly” arguments might ensue over the super rare weapon drops. Whether you are shooting zombies or jumping though dangerous levels, couch co-ops offer friends and families unique, interactive entertainment. Now, go forth and game on.

It’s like a punch to the face... but in a good way.

Los

Music The McCallen-based ska band take their music, and their message, on the road

Skagaleros

aturday night was my first time visiting Corpus Christi’s live music venue Boneshakers, which is advertised as a dive bar—my favorite kind. After hearing that there was a Ska band playing, this writer was even more happy to attend. Accompanied by a friend, we both took seats in the back of the bar, eagerly awaiting the show to jump start the night. Pretty soon, the band erupted on stage with the horns in full swing, sending vibrant, trumpeting tones through the enraptured crowd. I’m pretty sure that ears can’t technically smile, but I think mine did. The band was Los Skagaleros. The band members, all between the ages of 24 and 27, are a diverse and fun-loving group of

“skags” who hail from such places as Edinberg, Pharr, McAllen and even from as far as Monterrey, Mexico. The story of Los Skagaleros began when, through a mutual contact, Marco and Carmen started jamming together. Marco asked Carmen if she wanted to start a Ska band, and eventually, from knowing each other in different capacities, the whole band came together. They chose their

by Cate Grimes name, ironically, based on the Spanish word “Cagaleros,” which, as explained to me, means people who are always just “messing” around and wasting time with their lives. Out of the five boys and three girls, most of them have earned college degrees. Having been judged at times for holding said degrees but not working “serious” jobs, they decided to call the band “Los SKA-galeros,” but they wanted to be a band that does something to prove the naysayers wrong.

They don’t just do something—they say something. This self-described “band for the people” delivers a brilliant message of social and gender equalities, animal rights and, from what I’ve gathered, just pure love for the masses in general. Marco said after the show, “It’s just about putting something out there that’s positive. If we feel the vibe of (even) one person, then it’s worth it.” Paradox Skamp, aka Adrienne, chimed in, “We’re actually here to raise vibrations... change the mood.” Take some of their songs for instance, like “Short End of the Stick.” It’s about how women are objectified and held to impossible and unrealistic beauty standards. And how anyone, male or female, might be treated as such, and how we should embrace and respect both genders. “It’s Not Property, It’s Life” (aka the “Turtle Song”) opens with the lines – “Have you ever seen a turtle, and it’s tangled all in knots/You see it squirming, squirming, squirming/In fishing line, it’s caught” which showcases the band’s compassion for all animal life. There’s also my personal favorite, “C*nt Love,” a song that tackles the issue of ‘girl-on-girl’ emotional and physical hate crimes.

The song explains that females need to stop seeing each other as competition and stop fighting, and instead start respecting each other and get on the same team already. This one obviously hit home a little bit for me, but I digress… With some of their immediate influences being VooDoo Glow Skulls, Streetlight Manifesto, Catch 22, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, the music itself was upbeat and punky with plenty of horns, great rhythms and bass lines and just plain something you could shake your a** to—which happened. A lot. In general, even though the songs had serious messages, the band members had a great sense of humor throughout the show, really drawing people in like a big musical hug. To sum it all up, Becca mentioned, “We play what we love and keep the vibe alive with a conscious and positive message.” And that’s a band anyone can love. Los Skagaleros (and Las Skagaleras) definitely has to be one of the rare musical “gems” of the South Texas scene. You can check them out at facebook.com/ LosSkagaleros.

he multiple award winning Canadian short film and feature filmmaker Guy Maddin will make his first trip to Texas during the 20th annual Victoria Film Festival. Maddin is known for his recreating the look and style of silent or early-sound-era films such as “The Saddest Music in the World” and “Brand Upon the Brain!” and has garnered critical acclaim across the globe. On casting 2003’s “The Saddest Music in the World”: “Well, I knew of her (Maria de Medeiros), I guess, from bit parts I’ve seen her in. Before that ‘Henry and June,’ you know the bio pic about Henry Miller filmed on 35 mm with ’80s movie stars. “And there’s something about Isabella Rossellini as well. “So, my reservations about using contemporary actors kind of disappeared in these two faces. They sort of opened contemporary actors for me, and I needed that transition, like these great time travelers. “Isabella because she sounds so much like a mother, and we filmed in black and white, and there were certain angles, she would just tilt her head one micromillimeter, and all of a sudden a mother’s features sort of erupt out of Isabella’s. “I shoot in black and white, so I all of a sudden

On actors he’d love to work with: “That was a case where “Nicholas Cage. He the part was actually written for him (Jason describes in his Wikipedia Patrick). It really helps.

“And it was the case with Jason Patrick, who I met at Ebertfest, that festival (film critic) Roger Ebert threw. He was there for the Jim Thompson boxing movie, ‘After Dark, My Sweet.’ He was in that, and I met him for burgers and milkshakes with Ebert after, and we became friends, and I told him I wanted to write a part for him, and we stayed in touch.

“I just see him as maybe the greatest living German Expressionistic performer,” he said with a sincere laugh. “Him and maybe Crispin Glover are running neck and neck.

They understand where your dark inner landscape gets expressed with the outer landscape you occu“And it really helps to py, and those two guys have someone in mind then set out to define the when you’re writing a landscape. part.

He narrated my movie if you don’t have the kind ‘Brand Upon the Brain.’ I

would like to work with him again, too. So maybe I will.” On the “Matrix” trilogy: “It’s funny you mention that. The only time I’ve ever felt suicidal as an adult was during a screening of ‘Matrix 2.’ “I missed ‘Matrix 1’ and never did see ‘Matrix 3’, but I almost ended it all,” we paused to share a laugh. “‘Matrix: Reloaded’ or whatever it was called. I just couldn’t believe it. That one was—whatever. “It’s funny how fairy tales, allegories, fantasies and the weariest expressionist movies and all that stuff is just a world removed from science fiction. They almost never have anything to do with each other. They seem to sit at opposite ends of the pole. “Where as fairy tales exist solely for the purpose of exploring human psychology, so science fiction can really make me feel like the life has been sucked out of me. “Every now and then an actor can pull something out.” On contemporary directors: “I’m really impressed by some mainstream directors like David O. Russell. I’m amazed by the work he’s done with the actors. Zack Snyder’s stuff. I think he’s under appreciated. Like with ‘Suckerpunch.’” He paused and tried to remember more names. “I don’t even bother remembering their names until they die,” he chuckled. “I just catch the Hollywood reporter obits and then start submitting things to memory.

“I don’t want to have to remember someone’s filmography if he’s going to keep adding pictures to it. It’s like, how much room do I have up here anyway?” On the Victoria Film Festival: “I’m going to just wander around. I’m going to check out the films, I’ve got some duties. It’s always nice meeting people that come out. You meet all kinds. And that’s pretty moving to me, too.

“The landscape is very unWinnipeg-like. That’s very important to me. Like stopping in at a gas station that has free gas. I’m just going to fill up my soul. “Then I’m going to come back to Winnipeg and try to last the winter.” Guy Maddin will be a guest speaker at the “In Conversation With” special panel Sunday, Feb. 9, at 11 a.m. followed by a collection of his short films at 12:30 p.m.

Guy Maddin on:

‘Jackass presents Bad Grandpa’ While chatting with Maddin about contemporary films he discussed his surprising (for this interviewer, anyway) love for “Jackass presents: Bad Grandpa”. “I loved ‘Jackass presents Bad Grandpa.’ I thought that was really unbelievable. It’s the most humanistic movie I’ve ever seen. Like most people, I didn’t expect that from it. I was really psyched out by it. I was bursting in to loud sobs while watching that movie.” Taken aback by the comments he just made, I had to ask if he was genuinely serious about the comedy. “Yeah, all those people that he plays jokes on. Like the people that are hired for that woman’s funeral, that woman who had no friends so people are hired for $5 or $10 to just sit in the service and then the coffin spills the body out. “The look of horror on their faces and their attempts to console the widower. It was just so heartfelt and their attempts to restore dignity to the situation. “I’m getting choked up right now just thinking about it. “Then in the end credits they show Johnny Knoxville revealing how it was a gag and the genuine relief on their faces. “It feels like ‘Robert Bresson’s Jackass presents Bad Grandpa.’ I really love that movie. “Scene in and scene out people are trying to help.”

‘Acting is so difficult for me that, unless the work is of a certain stature in my mind, unless I reach the expectations I have of myself, I’m unhappy. Then it’s a miserable existence. I’m putting a piece of myself out there. If it doesn’t do anything, I feel so ashamed. I’m afraid I’ll be the kind of actor who thought he would make a difference and didn’t. Right now, though, I feel like I made a little bit of difference.’ – Philip Seymour Hoffman
