Anthony Hopkins Just Got Creepier Than Hannibal for Bizarre Twitter Video
This is what happens when Anthony Hopkins channels his inner Pennywise.
The creepiest thing Anthony Hopkins has ever given us was his Oscar-winning performance as Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs, right? Well, that *was* the case until precisely yesterday morning, when the 80-year-old actor went gloriously off the rails for a short Twitter video with a simple, The Shining-inspired caption:
“This is what happens when you’re all work and no play…”
In the video, which quickly amassed millions of views and tens of thousands of re-tweets, Hopkins dances madly while making bizarre faces, seeming to recreate that scene from last year’s IT (the one that became a meme) wherein Pennywise dances maniacally. We’re thinking Hopkins just created his own viral meme here.
Enjoy this. Whatever the hell this is.

LKA Delves Deeper Into the Horror of ‘When Sirens Fall Silent’ in New Presentation [Video]
During the Day of the Devs: Summer Game Fest Edition, publisher Wired Productions and developer LKA released a three-minute developer presentation for psychological horror game When Sirens Fall Silent, offering players a deeper look into the mystery, characters, and unsettling world of the upcoming psychological thriller.
Following two creative story-based cinematic reveals (which you can watch here and here) that introduced the game’s atmosphere, themes, and central mystery, LKA Founder and Director Luca Dalcò guides viewers further into the world of the forgotten people, revealing more of what awaits players as they uncover the truth behind a series of kidnappings and murders.
From the creators of Martha is Dead, When Sirens Fall Silent casts players as Mila, a policewoman in early 1990s Rome, Italy. Haunted by a past she’s desperate to escape, Mila is thrust into a high-profile case of kidnappings and murders. As the investigation unravels, you must not only save her from herself, but also from being consumed by the violence, mystery and confusion.
Featuring a branching, multi-layered narrative dialogue system, with a huge focus on verbal and emotional interaction, investigation and subsequent choices, players will be faced with difficult real-world topics. LKA aims to “pull no punches” with its story, but also hints at a few surprises along the way.
When Sirens Fall Silent is currently in development for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.
