In a very unsurprising move, an adaptation of an indie horror game that features an ocean of blood has received an official “R” rating from the MPAA.
Iron Lung is rated “R“ for “language, bloody images, and some gore.”
Popular YouTube star and content creator Markiplier will be self-releasing his self-financed horror movie in theaters beginning January 30. The plan is to hit at least 50-100 independent theaters, and you can get your tickets now.
Here’s the official synopsis: “The stars are gone. The planets have disappeared. Only individuals aboard space stations or starships were left to give the end a name — The Quiet Rapture.
“After decades of decay and crumbling infrastructure, the Consolidation of Iron has made a discovery on a barren moon designated AT-5. An ocean of blood. Hoping to discover desperately needed resources, they immediately launch an expedition. A submarine is crafted, and a convict is welded inside. Due to the pressure and depth of the ocean, the forward viewport has been encased in metal. If successful, they will earn their freedom.
“If not, another will follow. This will be the 13th expedition.”
Caroline Rose Kaplan, Troy Baker, and Elsie Lovelock will also star in the movie.
Markiplier, whose real name is Mark Fischbach, previously declared that his feature will break records for the “most blood in a horror movie. Or any movie for that matter.”
Iron Lung adapts the indie horror game created by David Szymanski, named by Bloody Disgusting as one of the Best Indie Horror Video Games You Might’ve Missed in 2022.
