‘Fatal Frame V’ is Coming to America This Year

Published

on

The timing of this story couldn’t be worse, so let me quickly say that this is not an April Fools joke. I had my fun earlier today — now it’s time to get serious.

The House of Mario made a number of announcements during their Nintendo Direct conference held earlier today. Among them was the long-awaited confirmation that they’ll soon be bringing the Wii U-exclusive Fatal Frame V to North America later this year.

The way they worded the announcement leads me to believe they may be renaming the game. Bill Trinen, Nintendo’s director of product marketing, referred to it as a “new entry in the Fatal Frame series,” with no mention of its subtitle. They may be treating the game as a reboot.

Below you’ll find the entire Nintendo Direct conference, but I’ve set it up so the video should skip straight to the announcement.

Fatal Frame is set in a cursed tourist attraction on Mount Hikami, and will feature three playable characters each with their own stories. The Wii U’s GamePad will control the camera you’ll need to use to fend off evil spirits.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

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.
