Dread Central is reporting that Paul WS Anderson, proud owner of the Anti-Life Equation As Applied to Movies, is leaving the long-gestating adaptation of Castlevania, a video game about killing Dracula with a whip. This comes as a big shock to me, because when I spoke to Jeremy Bolt, Paul’s producer and buddy, on the … Continue reading
