An Interview With Actress Valerie Jane Parker About Her Role In The Supernatural-Horror ‘The Voices’

After a terrible car accident, Lilly, a young girl loses her sight but gains the ability to hear the dead. As she grows older and builds a good life with her husband, when she becomes pregnant the voices become louder, wanting their souls to be chosen to become her baby’s. That’s the premise of award-winning filmmaker Nathaniel Nuon’s The Voices starring actress Valerie Jane Parker (Wrong Turn 2021) in the role of Lilly (as an adult).

Raising Awareness: Final Thoughts On ‘Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice’

This is a Spoiler Free article! Ninja Theory has released on Xbox One today their hit game Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice that received positive reviews when it was on PlayStation 4 and PC. Ninja Theory allowed me to play the Xbox One version early and write a review for it.

Review Of ‘Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice’ On Xbox One

In August of 2017 indie-game developer Ninja Theory released on PlayStation 4 and PC, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. The game was so popular on PS4 and PC it earned high praises from both critics and players alike as well as winning nine awards! With this success, Ninja Theory expanded the game’s potential and will release it on Xbox One on April 11th, 2018! I’ve been granted the honor by Ninja Theory to review it before it hit’s selves. All I can say now is you need to get this game! The game is heavily influenced by ancient Celtic culture along with Norse mythology, that’s enough right there to make you throw your wallets at the screen right now. The game revolves not just on the culture and mythology but on our heroine Senua’s mental health, Ninja Theory worked closely with mental health experts to make this part of the experience as real as possible, this is where the game is unique.
