‘Resident Evil 2’ One-Shot Demo Is A Great Appetizer

Published

on

Demo

Capcom released a demo for the upcoming Resident Evil 2 over the weekend. The ‘One Shot’ demo gives you a 30-minute window of time to work through as much of the games story as possible. After that you are unable to play again… at least from the same account.

When a Resident Evil 2 remake was initially announced, I imagined much of the same game from my childhood, but with a better graphics engine in placed, a few things I didn’t expect was, 1. How freaking great the game was going to look. 2. How scary it was going to be. and 3. what a fantastic overall revisit it was going to be.

The demo picks up with you as Leon Kennedy at the infamous Racoon City Police Department. For those who have played, you know the basics. For those that have never played Resident Evil 2, I’m envious of you. To experience the classic game in this light for the first time is going to be a truly special experience.

Similar to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, the flash light and the effects put in place around the usage of said light are where a lot of the horror comes from.

There are also a ton of great gore I encountered on the short play through. One dudes head basically becoming a Pez dispenser was high on the list of very kick ass moments. Added to that is the real time damage that zombies take at the barrel of your firearm.

Following the all too quick play through, you are greeted with a short preview of the game and a very badass look at both Hunk and a hilarious look at Tofu traipsing through the sewers.

It’s a fun ride, that was enough to whet my appetite a bit for the upcoming release date.

We will have a full review when the game officially drops Jan. 25.

‘Immaculate’ Stars Reveal Which Horror Villains They Would “F, Marry, Kill”

Published

on

Sydney Sweeney is just coming off the success of her rom-com Anyone But You, but she’s ditching the love story for a horror story in her latest film Immaculate.

Sweeney is taking Hollywood by storm, portraying everything from a love-lusting teenager in Euphoria to an accidental superhero in Madame Web. Although the latter got a lot of hate among theater-goers, Immaculate is getting the polar opposite.

The film was screened at SXSW this past week and was well-received. It also gained a reputation for being extremely gory. Derek Smith of Slant says the, “final act contains some of the most twisted, gory violence this particular subgenre of horror has seen in years…”

Thankfully curious horror movie fans won’t have to wait long to see for themselves what Smith is talking about as Immaculate will hit theaters across the United States on March, 22.

Bloody Disgusting says that the movie’s distributor NEON, in a bit of marketing smarts, had stars Sydney Sweeney and Simona Tabasco play a game of “F, Marry, Kill” in which all their choices had to be horror movie villains.

It’s an interesting question, and you might be surprised at their answers. So colorful are their responses that YouTube slapped an age-restricted rating on the video.

Immaculate is a religious horror movie that NEON says stars Sweeney, “as Cecilia, an American nun of devout faith, embarking on a new journey in a remote convent in the picturesque Italian countryside. Cecilia’s warm welcome quickly devolves into a nightmare as it becomes clear her new home harbors a sinister secret and unspeakable horrors.”

In related news to the Terminator world, Linda Hamilton stated I’m done. I’m done. I have nothing more to say. The story’s been told, and it’s been done to death. Why anybody would relaunch it is a mystery to me. She claims she doesn’t want to play Sarah Connor anymore. You can check out more of what she said here.

New ‘Paranormal Activity’ Entry Isn’t a Movie, but “It’s Going to Be Intense” [Teaser Video]

Published

If you were expecting another Paranormal Activity sequel to be a feature film you’d be surprised. Maybe there will be one, but for now, Variety reports that DreadXP co-director and creative director Brian Clarke (DarkStone Digital) are creating a video game based on the series.

“We are thrilled to work with Paramount Game Studios and to have the opportunity to bring the world of ‘Paranormal Activity’ to gamers everywhere,” Epic Pictures CEO and DreadXP producer Patrick Ewald told Variety. “The films are steeped in rich lore and creative scares, and under the stewardship of creative director Brian Clarke, DreadXP’s ‘Paranormal Activity’ video game will honor those core tenets and offer horror fans one of our most terrifying games yet.” 

Paranormal Activity video game

Clarke, who worked on the horror video game The Mortuary Assistant said the Paranormal Activity franchise shows just how much reach a genre-specific title can accomplish, “If you thought ‘The Mortuary Assistant’ was scary, we’re taking what we learned during the development of that title and cranking it up with a more reactive and horrifying haunting system. It’s going to be intense!”

The new game is scheduled to be released in 2026.
