DreadXP announced in a press release that The Morgue Helper is in development. DreadXP and its parent company Epic Pictures Group, which is not affiliated with Epic Games, are producing the film, which will be an adaptation of the Mortuary Assistant game developed by DarkStone Digital and published by DreadXP. The film does not have a release date, but DreadXP said that Jeremiah Kipp (Draw Up and Stare, Slapface) will direct the film.
“The morgue attendant has a calm, unsettling tension that seeps into the player, making them feel like something terrible could happen at any moment,” Kipp said. “In making the adaptation, I wanted to pay homage to the entire game that scared me, as well as create a companion, by honoring the terrifying and dense world created by developer Brian Clarke (DarkStone Digital) and translating it into visual storytelling and characters. horror driven. history movie
The Mortuary Assistant follows a new, well…mortuary assistant who just graduated from college with a degree in mortuary science and takes on a new job: embalming bodies and fighting demons. This is not your typical morgue of his, nor is there a typical tour here. One of the things players love about Mortuary Assistant is its structure, which changes enough with each playthrough that DreadXP promises you’ll never feel safe.
The game was released in August 2022, although Epic Pictures Group CEO Patrick Ewald said it was already one of DreadXP’s most successful titles.
“The world that Brian Clarke created is steeped in lore and very well suited to expanding through a live-action film,” said Ewald. “DreadXP’s parent company, Epic Pictures Group, is already in the best position to make this happen, having financed, produced and distributed over 100 films in the last 15 years.”
