Passion. Betrayal. Murder. When you’re a private investigator, these are things you experience daily. But when you add capes to the mix-like Batman, Catwoman, and Harley Quinn? Things get even messier. The name’s Slam Bradley, and I’m telling you that this year’s Valentine’s Day special has more intrigue than you can shake a stick at. Ten tales of love-the kind of love that can push people over the edge. Don’t miss it…or I’ll make you pay.

DC Crimes of Passion #1

Random Acts of Violence Gets a New Clip

Based on the comic from Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray with art by Giancarlo Caracuzzo and Paul Mounts, Random Acts of Violence had its world premiere at Fantastic Fest taking place in Austin, Texas.

The film stars Jay Baruchel and Jesse Williams and costars Jordana Brewster.

In the film:

Todd Walkley (Williams) and his publisher Ezra (Baruchel) made their careers crafting a comic book based on a real-life serial killer called Slasherman. On a press tour to announce the launch of their final issue, they visit the town where Slasherman wreaked havoc twenty years earlier. Upon their arrival, a series of new murders unfold… murders that look eerily familiar to imagery in Todd’s Slasherman comics. Speculation and paranoia build regarding the identity of the mysterious killer.
