The Mortuary Assistant

HorrorMystery

Directed by Jeremiah Kipp

Rebecca Owens, a recent mortuary science graduate takes a night shift job at River Fields Mortuary. Initially, the job seems straightforward — embalming bodies, completing paperwork, and keeping things tidy. But once Rebecca starts working the night shift, things take a dark turn. From TMDB

    "Honestly difficult to imagine a path forward with it" - licensed Paranormal Activity horror game "technically done for good", says Mortuary Assistant creator. A byproduct of the Warner Bros. sale meant the Mortuary Assistant creator asked Paramount for an extension on the Paranormal Activity game. Paramount said no.

    The The Mortuary Assistant film adaptation got a trailer, and it's making me lose my mind because they did that thing where a black screen with white text pops up between shots, but it's clearly a smaller image thrown into an editing timeline with a different shade of black for the background.
