April showers may bring May flowers but they also bring the bookworms out to play. Well, play as in curled up with a blanket, maybe some coffee or tea and cozy pajamas. And it doesn’t much matter what media you’re consuming. Movies? Same checklist. Games? Same checklist.
This week the Kali Krew brings you our Rainy Day Favourites. They may not necessarily all be horror or sci-fi (but of course most of them are) but they are perfect for when you want to get cozy.
