The movie Marty Supreme, directed by Josh Safdie, has been known for its stressful viewing experience and memorable moments that have resonated in the minds of viewers. However, in a recent appearance on a podcast, Safdie revealed that the ending of the film could have been remarkably different. Originally, the script contemplated an epilogue in which an aged Marty, played by Timothée Chalamet, encounters Milton Rockwell, his antagonist played by Kevin O’Leary, who bites him; a twist that introduced a supernatural element into the narrative.

The movie Marty Supreme, directed by Josh Safdie, has been known for its stressful viewing experience and memorable moments that have resonated in the minds of viewers. However, in a recent appearance on a podcast, Safdie revealed that the ending of the film could have been remarkably different. Originally, the script included an epilogue in which an aged Marty, played by Timothée Chalamet, encounters Milton Rockwell, his antagonist played by Kevin O’Leary, who bites him; a twist that introduced a supernatural element into the narrative.
Marty Vampire
O’Leary, known as Mr. Wonderful on the show Shark Tank, improvised a line about being a vampire during one of his interactions with Marty, which surprisingly was not just an eccentricity. In that tense moment of the movie, Rockwell says: I was born in 1601. I am a vampire. I have been here forever, hinting at a real threat and a dark background. Although this line seemed to be an exaggeration about his power and wealth, it was thought to represent a literal curse for Marty, plunging him into the undead life.
Safdie confirmed that prosthetics had been made for Timothée Chalamet and it was planned for the scene to culminate with Rockwell biting Marty. However, this sequence was removed from the final cut. Although the final result of the film decided not to include this supernatural twist, the tension and drama remain at the forefront, providing an appropriate closure to the protagonist’s tumultuous journey.
The revelation of this possible alternative direction suggests that Marty Supreme could have taken a much more extravagant and unconventional path, although many fans are likely relieved that the story maintained its focus on the emotional reality of the protagonist, without the need for fangs.

A new vampire RPG titled The Blood of Dawnwalker has captured the attention of video game enthusiasts, especially due to its origins with former CD Projekt developers. This game is shaping up to be an intriguing combination of rich narrative and immersive atmosphere that popularized The Witcher 3, while introducing innovations in gameplay mechanics and interactive storytelling.
A game that also draws from Disco Elysium and Sekiro
The latest trailer, released after the first preview in June, reveals an interface and musical score that directly evoke the experience of The Witcher 3. The medieval city that serves as a backdrop resembles Novigrad, and the protagonist, Coen, has a hairstyle similar to Geralt’s, although with a personal touch as he is brown-haired. Comparisons are inevitable, and despite the familiarity, the developers at Rebel Wolves seem to be aiming to create a distinctive RPG.
Coen has abilities that change depending on the time of day, an element that promises to enrich gameplay and decision-making in missions. For example, vampiric powers can be used at night, allowing players to tackle challenges in various ways. This time mechanic is reminiscent of titles like Disco Elysium, where the progression of the day is based on critical decisions rather than real-time.
Additionally, the game offers multiple paths to approach missions, allowing players to avoid certain confrontations and explore subplots in creative ways. The combat mechanics, which combine Sekiro-style parrying with viscerally detailed assassinations, are presented as precise and fluid, adding a new dimension to the RPG experience.
With its focus on reactivity and flexibility in game development, The Blood of Dawnwalker promises to be a unique experience. Fans can expect its arrival sometime next year and can already add it to their wishlist on Steam.

Kathryn Bigelow, a renowned American director, has made a mark in the thriller genre thanks to her distinctive style that blends atmosphere and tension. Although her work has been praised for creating provocative entertainment, she has also faced criticism for the alleged lack of substance in her stories. However, her ability to tackle violence and power dynamics in her plots has earned her a prominent place in contemporary filmography.
One of the most badass vampire movies in history
One of her most emblematic works, Near Dark (1987), has been considered a cult film that established Bigelow as a relevant filmmaker. In this film, the American director blends genres such as horror, western, and neo-noir, constructing an intriguing narrative in a rural setting of the United States. The plot revolves around a young cowboy who, drawn to an outsider, becomes a vampire, leading to an exploration of dangerous communities and complex family relationships.
Bigelow, along with her co-writer Eric Red, uses classic elements of the vampiric canon to weave a story that is set within a hierarchical social system, with dynamics of ‘found family’ that evoke her work in portraying bodies of power and security forces. Moreover, her successful collaboration with the soundtrack of Tangerine Dream gives the film an electrifying atmosphere that revitalizes horror through the prism of 80s neo-noir.
Currently, Night Travelers is available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video and Filmin, making it an ideal option for genre enthusiasts during the Halloween season. Its relevance endures despite the passage of time, highlighting Bigelow’s ability to tell captivating stories that transcend their era.

After years of development and multiple delays, RPG fans can mark October 21 on their calendars. This day will finally see the release of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, a highly anticipated sequel that promises to pay homage to the original work of Troika Games. The date was announced during the recent video game fair Gamescom, where a new trailer was also presented and different editions of the game were confirmed.
A game that has been in development for too long
The title will have three editions: the standard edition, with an approximate price of 59.99 euros, and two additional editions that will include a series of extras. As part of an incentive for those who pre-order any of the editions, players will receive the Bloodlines Nostalgia Jukebox, a decorative in-game item that functions as a player for the most iconic melodies from the previous title, designed to touch the nostalgic fiber of the saga’s fans.
In this new installment, the protagonists are Phyre and Fabian, two characters with distinct play styles. Phyre focuses on action and combat, while Fabian is aimed at those who prefer puzzle-solving, thus offering a more complete and varied experience for players. This dual approach seems interesting, as it will allow players to choose how they want to tackle the game’s narrative and missions.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 not only aims to attract fans of the original title but also to draw in new players with its blend of action and role-playing elements. With the release in October, the gaming community is eager to see if the game can meet the high expectations surrounding it after its prolonged development. The wait is almost over, and all eyes are on this promising return to the world of vampires and intrigue.

After six years since Mahershala Ali announced the return of Blade at San Diego Comic-Con, the future of the project seems uncertain. To date, there is no approved final script, which has generated growing skepticism among fans about the possibility of the film ever materializing. The production of Blade has faced significant disruptions due to the global pandemic and recent strikes in the film industry, which have added more uncertainty to the project.
Blade doesn’t seem to be getting back on its feet
Ali, who was supposed to portray the iconic vampire hunter, has expressed doubts about the making of the film and has begun to distance himself from discussions related to Marvel. In a recent interview, he was evasive when asked about his involvement in the Marvel universe, suggesting that he might be considering leaving the project behind completely.
The situation for Blade becomes even more complicated upon learning that the producers of Los pecadores mentioned an “easter egg connection” with the failed movie. The costume designer, Ruth Carter, had worked on costumes intended for Blade, which would have been set in a similar period to that of Los pecadores. Despite these remnants of what could have been, Blade’s fate remains uncertain, especially after Disney removed the movie from its list of future releases.
A rumor suggests that it might be easier to rewrite a new script for Blade using the previous Wesley Snipes movies as a reference. This opens the door to a possible reimagining of the character, but the lack of concrete progress raises doubts about whether another attempt to revive Blade in the MCU will actually take place.

Rebel Wolves has released an extensive video showcasing a gameplay walk-through of a mission from their upcoming vampire RPG titled Blood of Dawnwalker. This game, which marks the debut of the studio founded by former members of CD Projekt Red, has captured the attention of fans by combining storytelling elements with non-linear gameplay.
Approach the world your own way
Just like in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, players in Blood of Dawnwalker will have the freedom to approach missions in an unconventional way. The video highlights the imposing fortress of Greifberg, which has fallen under the control of a vampiric regime and has imprisoned the protagonist Coen’s family. The game’s design offers players the opportunity to infiltrate the castle at any time, although with a huge challenge, as they are given only 22 in-game days to complete the main mission.
This sense of urgency, combined with the “narrative sandbox” structure, allows players to experience the story in a unique way, adapting to their own decisions and play style. The design director, Daniel Sadowski, has commented that while players may attempt to tackle the castle as soon as they wish, the so-called “high-risk missions” are, in fact, extremely challenging with a limited starting team.
The story of Blood of Dawnwalker centers around Coen, an intriguing character who is human during the day and a vampire at night, adding an extra nuance to the game’s narrative. Although the release is scheduled for next year, an exact date has not yet been confirmed, creating an air of anticipation among RPG enthusiasts and fans of Rebel Wolves productions.

Steam hosts increasingly peculiar festivals. The latest is the Zombies vs. Vampires Festival, which aims to highlight zombie and vampire games. It wasn’t hard to imagine. This means that many of these games have juicy discounts. But which discounts should you not miss? That’s what we want to uncover for you. We have sifted through the best deals so you don’t miss out on something truly juicy. Whether you prefer zombies or vampires, there’s definitely something for you here.
If you like the first three Resident Evil games but have always wanted them to be a bit like Half Life, you should treat yourself. For less than the price of a coffee, you can get Nightmare of Decay, a game clearly inspired by Resident Evil that has been acclaimed by both critics and the public, and is perfect for brightening up a silly weekend. The kind of game we love to see at these ridiculous prices: the ones we start during coffee time and finish just in time to start making dinner.
Perhaps what you want is to be able to put in as many hours as possible for the least amount of money. In that case, think about this. Again, what a coffee costs, approximately. Two games: both Left4Dead. With three friends, you have dozens of hours with the base games, but considering they have been modded for years, you could probably put in hundreds of hours. If not thousands. You can spend less than two euros and not play anything else until 2030 if you don’t want to.
Zombies are cheap, but of course: they come in masses. If you want an excellent game for just a penny more than what both Left 4 Dead would cost you, you should get this masterpiece from Telltale that is better than any season of the TV series. With approximately 13 hours ahead, it also lasts as long as a season of the series, approximately. So it seems like the perfect time to try it if you are a fan of the series and have never given it a chance.
Imagine having to survive the zombie apocalypse in a country where firearms cannot be bought in a supermarket. This is the premise of Death Road to Canada, a game where we will have to travel by car across the country from city to city recruiting characters, gathering supplies, and finding ways to survive. A fascinating roguelike, incredibly fun, and offering countless hours of entertainment. However, don’t expect to shoot much: this is not the USA.
Imagine Resident Evil, but where the camera switches to first person during battles. And where the STAR team, upon arriving at the mansion and separating, every time one dies, we would have to embody a different one to continue the adventure. That is exactly what You Will Die Here Tonight proposes to us, a clear homage to Resident Evil, with its own personality, that for less than 5 euros you must play if you are a fan of the Capcom franchise.
Changing the subject a bit, imagine being an evil villain who wants to end the forces of good. What would you do? Build your own dungeon and ally with terrible minions to defeat them, of course. And that’s what KeeperRL is about. A great retro-style roguelike that involves building and managing our dungeon and trying to prevent the forces of good from defeating us. And why is it at the Zombie and Vampire Festival? Because we can recruit zombies and vampires, obviously.
One of the most acclaimed indies of 2023 reaches its lowest price to date. Like Max Payne, but with a tragic story about a vampire hunter with addiction issues who must take down his ex-girlfriend, Draculea, who wants to end the world. If that’s not enough to sell you on it, we can add that it’s a game as frantic as it is absolutely exquisite narratively and artistically, with one of the best soundtracks in recent years. An absolute delight that could only come from Strange Scaffold.
Probably the most famous zombie game out there. DayZ is a game that has been a hit among survival game fans since its release in 2018, being one of the most celebrated and played games on Steam. Now you can get it for an absolutely ridiculous price, especially considering the insane amount of hours you can dedicate to it. A sweet deal that, trust us, if you connect, you won’t be able to get out of it.
There is a battle that has been gripping the imagination of humanity since time immemorial. One that, no matter how much it is recreated, is never resolved. We always return to it and never get results. Always haunted by the same idea. Who would win in a fight between a vampire and a werewolf? And it seems that the developers of PUBG Mobile are also intrigued by this question. PUBG Studios has released a beta version of their new update, version 3.4. This version aims to answer this ancient question. Who would win in a fight between werewolves and vampires. This means that […]
There is a battle that has been gripping the imagination of humanity since time immemorial. One that, no matter how much it is recreated, is never resolved. We always return to it and never get results. Always haunted by the same idea. Who would win in a fight between a vampire and a werewolf? And it seems that the developers of PUBG Mobile are also intrigued by it.
From PUBG Studios, they have released a beta version of their new update, version 3.4. This version aims to answer this age-old question: Who would win in a fight between werewolves and vampires? This means that the Transformation mechanic is introduced into the game, allowing us to transform either into a vampire or a werewolf. With enhanced stats and new abilities, while transformed, we will have a significant advantage against our rivals.
In addition to this, this update includes several thematic areas related to vampires and werewolves. As well as improvements that have nothing to do with them. For example, the ability to heal ourselves while driving or the ability to carry two weapons at the same time. These add another layer of strategy to the game.
So now you know. Sharpen your fangs or your claws and get out there. Because the side of your preference is not going to win this mythical battle on its own. Not in the competitive terrain of PUBG Mobile.
PUBG Mobile (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds) is probably one of the biggest and most popular battle games on the market. It's easy to want to keep playing match after match, especially with its unpredictable and action-packed gameplay. The game pits 100 players against each other.
Vampires exist and Diablo IV proves it to us with the announcement of its second season, with a release date still far away.
Now no game is ever finished. If twenty years ago games used to end, and one had to wait for a new installment or, occasionally, an expansion that added a reasonable amount of content, now we know that between battle passes, seasons, and DLCs, we’ll always have more than enough content for our favorite games. As long as they are successful. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise us that there are always news about novelties in the most popular games. Ultimately, their players always want more content.
That’s why it’s not surprising that, during the Opening Night Live of Gamescom 2023, the new season of Diablo 4 has been unveiled. Accompanied by a captivating story trailer, which looks spectacular, narrating the tale of the arrival of a vampire army at the gates of Sanctuary. This is the reason why we will have to muster our courage and learn how to deal with these vile creatures of the night.
Named the “Season of Blood,” it will arrive on October 17th for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. Among the novelties we are aware of, in addition to its own questline, it will introduce five new bosses available in Diablo 4’s endgame, granting us vampiric abilities for our characters. Moreover, this expansion will encompass various quality-of-life improvements. These include better gem inventory management; the transfer of paragon points, skill points, potion charges, and obol capacity upgrades between seasons; and changes in the functionality of status effects.
Among the main characters in the story, we know that there will be a vampire hunter named Erys, but the narrative of this second expansion is still up in the air, apart from the four bloody hints that we are aware of. Therefore, we will still need to learn a bit more in order to fully enjoy all the details of this long descent into the night.
