Launched in 2021, Iron Lung grew to become a shock hit. Oh, hey, I’m even quoted on the Steam web page. I completely cherished it, because it was every part short-form horror needs to be. It was brief, creative, and likewise horror. It was extra atmospheric than scary, so some individuals advised me they discovered it boring, which damage my ego. My suggestions are lots like my youngsters. I ship them out on this planet with out fulling getting ready them, and in the event that they don’t succeed instantly, I really feel unreasonably upset.

In any case, this adaptation of Iron Lung goals to be a theatrical characteristic.

I don’t have many robust emotions right here. I play issues, however I hardly ever watch them. Subsequently, each Markiplier and movies as a complete are in my periphery, together with sports activities and human interplay. There’s no motive an Iron Lung film couldn’t work, so right here’s hoping the workforce can pull it off.
