‘The Cursed Forest’ Got Even Bigger This Weekend
The frightening foliage-themed horror game The Cursed Forest reached another milestone this weekend with the release of its second act. Russian developer Noostyche is taking a piecemeal approach to its development by dividing it up into multiple parts that will arrive on Steam Early Access as they near completion.
The Cursed Forest is a pseudo-remake of a freeware horror game of the same name that released back in 2014 — much like how Slender: The Arrival remade Mark Hadley’s phenomenally successful freeware hit The Eight Pages. Another update is expected later this month, according to an announcement post that mentions “a more stable version” of the game that Noostyche is looking to have finished by the end of the month.
Until then, it’s just $7.69 on Steam (reg. $10.99), courtesy of the Lunar New Year Sale.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
