Oni Press Unveils Live-Action Teaser Trailer For ‘Lamentation’ #1, In Stores May 2023
by Brendan M. Allen
Cursed by fate… Paralyzed by fear… There is no mercy… When death stalks the living! Beware thy brutal hand… because Lamentation awaits.
Lock your doors, dim the lights, and breathe (just breathe) because Oni Press is proud to debut a startling first: a live-action teaser trailer for Lamentation #1 – the double-sized, 48-Page first issue of their shocking horror thrill-ride of the summer from creators Cullen Bunn and Arjuna Susini.
And that’s just the beginning…
Told in three 48-Page issues spanning May, June, and July, horror master Bunn and rising star Susini unravel a terrifying tale of tension, paranoia, and pain as the ill-fated cast and crew of a cursed stage play, trapped inside a haunted theater, play cat and mouse with a masked killer who may be more than human.
After weeks of grueling rehearsals, a new production is set to begin at the famed Requiem Theatre: Razide’s Lament, three acts of gothic horror set inside a haunted castle…with a story that some say is more than mere fantasy. Under the stern rule of a dedicated but temperamental director, the script seems ever-changing, and, more mysterious still, our lead actress has found herself cast in the role of a lifetime without so much as an audition. Her grand debut is fast approaching – and, with it, a barrage of razors in the night that will terrorize the actors and readers. There is no exit, no escape, and when the curtain finally rises, Razide himself will take center stage to cross the threshold into the unholy darkness that lies just beyond…
