‘Catherine: Full Body’ Has a September 3rd Date in The West
With Atlus’ remastering of Catherine in Catherine: Fully Body being out today in Japan, you’re probably wondering just when we’d get the game here in the west. Well, wonder no more.
Atlus has announced today that the game will hit PlayStation 4 on September 3rd, 2019. And they’ve even given us a trailer to celebrate! For those who need refreshing, Full Body is a remastering of the 2011 PS3/Xbox 360 game, complete with improved visuals, new music, enhanced multiplayer and new story paths.
The cast for the western release includes Troy Baker as Vincent, Laura Bailey as Catherine, Michelle Ruff as Katherine, and new to the game is Brianna Knickerbocker as Rin, the mysterious amnesiac who suddenly shows up in Vincent’s life one day, changing his life forever.
No word on if Full Body will be released on PC or Xbox One. The original version of the game, Catherine Classic, was released on Steam last month.
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.
