  review: "Mortality" is another one of these 'theme' demos, which try to
  tell a story or send a message through the demo medium. Some of these
  succeed in creating the mood they're after, like Syndrome's "Hardcore"
  [11/96] or Powerline's "Enforcing the Law" [12/97], but unfortunately most
  fail. Tulou's attempt, unfortunately, falls into the latter category.
  It fails to pick up the pace to sustain interest, and the many parts of
  irrelevance bored me stiff.
    So is there nothing good about this demo? Why, sure there is! The
  graphics are sometimes quite good, and it seems like Razorback is a name
  we'll have to keep a close eye on :) The best effect in the demo BTW is
  the 'light at the end of the tunnel' one right after the EKG flatlines...
  Since Zito disagrees with me over the qulity of this demo, I have chosen
  to include his review as well. [glenn]
    At the beginning you  can see a clock ticking and suddenly it stops and
  you know it is the end while you hear the choirs of angels sing... This is
  the start of a very stylish, dark and atmospheric demo by  Tulou!
  Afterwards appears an animated road seen from a car and suddenly you - the
  driver - hit a man standing in the middle of it. He's lieing in the light
  of your car's reflectors. Bleeding. His heart is still beating as you can
  see on the EKG-Viewer, but the world fades away and when you see the well-
  known tunnel of light you know he is also dead. At the cemetery the death
  himself watches over the dead... Now the picture is zoomed (not perfectly
  but nice) and after an ugly face the best picture with the closest of this
  demo is presented to your eyes. Then follows a senseless pause (after the
  david's cross) and another nice tunnel appears. You are on cemetery again
  and while your look scrolls right you are able to read the credits on
  tombstones. Then it seems you are in hell but when the endscroller shows
  up the colors get brighter and peacefull clouds are to be seen...
    This is a demo with real style. Maybe some of you will find it too dark
  and morbid but I like it very much. It is one of my favorites. Not only
  because of the very dark style and the fabulous pictures by Razorback, but
  also because it is not too long and particulary because of the music. This
  is a real score! I have never heard a tune that fit better in every part
  of a demo. It's a demo no one should have missed. But it could be a better
  one if it ended by fading out not with this endless loop and if the title
  were be better presented! [zito]

  Pusherman (1998, 13.06, AGA/CGX 8MB Multifile Demo).
  code: Dr.Strangelove, Todi, gfx: Joker, music: Fossil.
  Winner of the Remedy 98 demo competition!
  review: An asian-flavoured guitar lick opens the original "Pusherman", and
  takes us into Tulou's demo world - a very very weird place to be. There
  are quite a few attempts at doing something different within this
  production, from the music to the charming kung-fu quotes. The effect with
  the multi-layer bumpmapping was very nice. Graphics are overall very
  original, if not especially GOOD... They seem to have been mostly scanned
  and then retouched for the desired effect. Not exactly a showstopping
  demo. [glenn]
