This Custom SHODAN PC Might Already Be Sentient
Someone has finally made a custom PC case that’s worthy of overthrowing the human race. Inspired by the malevolent AI SHODAN from the long-dormant System Shock series, this one-of-a-kind PC is emblazoned with the incredibly judgmental face of everyone’s favorite rogue AI. The attention to detail here is just ridiculous, but we mustn’t overlook the possibility that this case is too genuine, enough so that it becomes sentient and hurtles the world into a Terminator 2: Judgment Day type of situation. I refuse to die before I get my hands on Silent Hills.
The creation you can see below is the work of Tom. Tom’s a fan of the series, so last September he decided to design a custom case that accurately represented his love for the games.
Tom even made a making-of video, which you can find below.
In related news, I just realized that System Shock 2 turned 15 on August 11 and I forgot to mention it. So as a sort of belated celebration, once you think you’ve spent enough time ogling over the lovely stuff above, you should consider checking out this artist rendering of the greatest scene in the series. And feel free to share your favorite moments from either game in the comments below.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
