why is it that when I Google NECROMAGICKAL, all I get is some dude's Bloody-Disgusting profile page?

Not really a reliable review source there

And "We are no longer shocked by the visual presence of torture and death" doesn't quite ring true. We are no longer shocked by the torture and/or death of characters with whom we have no emotional connection.

Make us care about the character and a hangnail can be effective.

Shock for shock's sake is the only thing to which we've truly become numb.
