Suda 51’s Bloody Brawler ‘Let it Die’ Has a T-Rex
I know you don’t need me to tell you that Suda 51 makes weird games, it’s a fact, like how giraffes fight by becoming mediaeval flails. His studio, Grasshopper Manufacture, is known for their punk rock hack-and-shoot-’em-ups No More Heroes and Killer7, as well as the contributions they’ve made in the general direction of horror, with Shadows of the Damned, Lollipop Chainsaw and the Japan-exclusive Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse.
Suda 51’s upcoming free-to-play asynchronous multiplayer brawler Let it Die seems to borrow from all of these titles, with its gladiatorial combat that blends Manhunt and Mortal Kombat with zany arenas featuring fire-spewing Tyrannosaurs, because that’s how you make a seven ton mass of muscle and teeth cool and terrifying.
After a lengthy hiatus that left me wondering if we were going to have to let Let it Die die, its publisher, GungHo Online Entertainment, confirmed the PS4 exclusive is still aiming for a release later this year, with a playable demo that’ll be at PAX East next week.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
