Uncork’d Schedules They Talk For May Release In US
Next month, They Talk About Bruno — Giorgio Bruno, that is, director of many Italian horror movies. His latest is headed for the American market in May, and Uncork’d is distributing. They Talk carries a similar plot to Brian DePalma’s Blow Out, but that movie is forty years old so you can’t accuse Bruno of cashing in on a hot trend. Alex works as a sound engineer, and he’s shooting a documentary when he catches some weird noises in the audio. Somehow, he’s figured out a way to record the dead. But there’s more going on than that…the spirits are contacting Alex on purpose, attempting to warn him about something…or someone. Their hints are, unfortunately, rather unintelligible so it’s up to Alex to figure out what kind of danger he’s in — before he falls victim to it. They Talk stars Rocío Muñoz, Sydney White and Margaux Billard, and its script was written by Vinicio Canton, Stefano Ceccarelli and Chiara Barbo. Watch for it on digital and DVD May 10.
Adult Swim Premieres For The Weekend Of April 30
As we exit April and enter May, here’s what Adult Swim has in the works to make your weekend weird. First off, the Three Busy Debras are back with two brand-new episodes. According to Adult Swim’s official description of what’s happening, “In ‘The Honorable Order of the Debras,’ Debra goes missing, and Debra and Debra must step in to save her before it’s too late. Or worse! Afterward, watch a story in three brunches in ‘To Have Debra, To Hold Debra.’” The episodes air this Sunday, May 1 at 12 a.m. ET/PT. One day before then, Toonami kicks off with another new episode of the latest AS / Crunchyroll co-production, Shenmue: The Animation.

Whitney Houston Biopic from the writers of Bohemian Rhapsody in the works
Whitney Houston is going to have an authorized Biopic from Sony Pictures. Anthony McCarten will pen the screenplay. He is the writer of the Award Winning flick,The Bohemian Rhapsody. The Bohemian Rhapsody introduced Freddie Mercury and his Band Queen to the new generation. I have a nephew who refuses to listen to “boomer” music but The movie about Queen made him a fan of Freddy Mercury’s music. It is hard to believe it, but we now have a generation of kids who don’t know this legend. It will be timely to reintroduce Whitney’s music and legacy to the Gen Z. Naomi Ackie will play the late great Whitney Houston. The Bohemian Rhapsody ended positively, so this Biopic may not include the scandals and Death of the Legendary Actress-singer. Whitney Houston Biopic announced by Sony Pictures The title of the movie is a tribute to one of her hit songs. Because Whitney Houston is known for her ballads, it’s intriguing that Sony picked a joyful uplifting song to reflect her life.
David King from Dead By Daylight retconned to be Gay
David King from Dead by Daylight is now canonically gay. The rugged boxer of the popular survival horror asymmetric multiplayer game was originally written to be straight. His lore even mentioned he has a girlfriend. Dead by Daylight have a diverse fanbase, and it is noticeable that there is a growing LGBT player base in the community. These fans had been asking Behavior for a representation. The LGBT fans wanted to see representation on the survivor side. I cannot blame them because most of the representation in the game are killers. I am talking about Freddie Krueger and Chatterrer from Hellraiser. When Behavior announced dead by Daylight would have an LGBT character, they assumed it would be either a new character, Dwight Fairfield or Yui Kimura. David’s lore is that he was a Rugby player who became a boxer because he got involved in fights. He is limping on his perk, No Mither, because of his injury from a match. He became a sex symbol in the game because people
Dark Quest: Board Game Hits Steam Early Access May 4
Dark Quest is not a board game. Well, rather, it is…but it isn’t. It’s a video game with the mechanics of a board game…that calls itself “Board Game.” Try not to get confused. In Dark Quest: Board Game (the video game), you build a party, draw adventure cards, roll dice, and fight monsters to stop the plans of a nameless sorcerer. Maybe that’s him in the official art up above. He doesn’t look that threatening. Like seemingly 87% of indie games that have hit Steam in the past three years, Dark Quest: Board Game (not a board game) is a roguelike. Says Brain Seal, the game’s developer, “you start the game at hero camp where you must create your party and then go on a journey throughout the world by choosing different areas. Choose each area based on your party’s strengths and weaknesses. Upgrade your party, search for hidden equipment, battle ferocious monsters and become a hero!” Since you’re no doubt familiar with both roguelikes and board games, Dark Quest:
Montezuma’s Revenge Is Back — For The NES
You might be forgiven for assuming the NES got a port of Montezuma’s Revenge. Originally released by board game manufacturer Parker Brothers for a variety of systems in the mid-80s, it was a platformer smash BEFORE Mario made the genre cool — but by the time the NES achieved dominance, Montezuma’s Revenge was no longer being sold. Instead, most people played the game on an 80s computer like the Apple II, ZX Spectrum or C64. Not only was it one of the most popular games for computers at the time, it was easy to bootleg, so everybody had it whether they paid for it or not. Now Normal Distribution LLC has picked up the rights to the game and corrected an oversight. Montezuma’s Revenge is coming to the NES very soon! The setup is simple: you’re an explorer probing the depths of an Aztec temple. There are over 100 screens per level, which was a LOT for its time period. Depending on the version, you might have to deal with
