Today comic publisher Valiant Entertainment and indie game developer Blowfish Studios have announced that they’re teaming up to bring the best-selling fan-favorite comic book character Shadowman back in an all-new horror adventure game Shadowman: Darque Legacy. The game’s description is as follows: “As a conspiracy threatens to overrun the realm of the living, Shadowman must contend with horrifying inhuman entities with challenging melee combat. Follow a dark path from the land of the living to the hellish realm of the Deadside as you cross the veil between both. Embody the hero of the dark to traverse the necromantic divide, overcome dastardly obstacles, and silence the terrifying threats lurking within.” From the sounds of it, Shadowman: Darque Legacy could potentially be either an action RPG or a Souls-like game. Either way, fans of the old games as well as fans of the comics can look forward to 2024 for the game’s release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

Before we dive into the movie review, I think it is important that I tell you about the legend of El Demonio Negro, The Black Demon. It has been said that the massive beast, which has a black top half, is between 30 and 50 feet long, leaving some convinced that it is, in reality, a surviving Megladon. There have been many reports and sightings of the beast throughout the Sea of Cortez near Mexico for decades. The film takes inspiration from the Black Demon’s legend and supersizes it. Warning Spoilers ahead. Josh Lucus stars as a father on a work/vacation with his family. He’s tasked with the job of inspecting an oil rig. But he and his family find themselves trapped on the rusty rig by a massive shark with the Rig’s two remaining employees. They must fight to survive and find a way to escape. Throughout the movie, details emerge about just how big of an asshole Lucus’
