‘Dead Space’ Meets ‘BioShock’ and Makes Me Whole
Would you kindly come over here so we can join hands and praise Altman for the truly stunning fan art we’re about to receive? This mash-up of Dead Space and BioShock is nice to look at and it may even double as a lesson in convergence.
Using little more than an overabundance of talent and the sweat of his brow, Reddit user King_Hamlet achieved the impossible by creating a work of art the Church of Unitology might’ve considered a religious artifact — that is, assuming there’s any of them left after Isaac and Co. dedicated so much of the last two games sending scores of them to their Maker.
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.
