The ‘Friday the 13th: The Game’ Steam Page is Live
Time’s about to run out for those dumb horny teens, and they’re too sexed up to even realize it. Friday the 13th: The Game will be here in no time at all, and when it arrives, you can bet our man J.V. won’t waste any time making up for his decades-long hiatus from video games by unleashing a bloody Stabnado on every unfortunate soul he can find.
The game even has an official Steam page that you can visit right now. Bookmark it, study it, memorize its features, soak up its gameplay footage, stare deeply into its screens while methodically sharpening a machete — you know, the basic preparatory stuff we all do before purchasing a new horror game.
The PC specs haven’t been revealed yet, but according to the first announcement post on the shiny new Steam page, that’s because the “minimum specs are still iffy” right now. Stay tuned!
Friday the 13th: The Game releases this fall for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
