In Killer Frequency, players take on the role of Forest Nash, a late-night radio DJ who was given the task of also acting as a 911 operator after all the phones in the town that the station is in can’t make outside calls as the local serial killer long thought dead has returned, and Forest and his producer have to help callers from becoming the killer’s next victims. Now onto the game itself!

Spoiler-Free Film Review: The Night of the 12th (La nuit du 12; 2022)

Director Dominik Moll’s superb French feature The Night of the 12th (La nuit du 12) — César Award winner for Best Film, Best Director, and five other César awards — is a gripping murder mystery/police procedural based on an actual unsolved murder in France. As the film begins, a 21-year-old woman named Clara (Lula Cotton-Frapier) leaves a party in the middle of the night.
