Everyone who's played Mortal Kombat 11 will likely agree that it's gore is on another level. Children and elderly folk should not be allowed near this game, yet a (presumably) innocent couple were made to go through the ungodly carnage by their son and have probably come out of this experience worse for wear.
Mark Petrie, a YouTuber and horror lover, had his parents sit through the game's fatality trailer and they seem genuinely grossed out by the footage in a video he's posted to YouTube. Their describing of the moves, though, is priceless.
You could check out the ordeal in the video below. Credits go to Gamesradar.com for bringing this to our attention.
Here are some of the things they're heard saying about the gory fatalities:
- "Gah, look at his spine there."
- "Oh, you've gotta be kidding."
- "Lunchmeat." (timidly)
- "That's no way to treat a woman."
- "One of those moves is fatal, you don't have to do 20 of 'em."
- "He's only got half a body."
- "Oh, that's like The Thing."
- "You promise I'm not going to have nightmares tonight?"
These are just a few of the favorites, but Mark's vid is available for your viewing pleasure. One wonders how they treated him as a kid. Do harmless old people deserve to sit through something like this?
On the bright side, though, they managed to get through it all and are probably well-armed for viewing gruesome films and possibly real-life decapitations (God forbid).
The experience might not be over, however, as more DLC characters are expected to make their way to the game. Fortunately, we know that Ash Williams from The Evil Dead will not be arriving, contrary to previous rumors.
The chainsaw-wielding favorite was listed as one of the characters said to be joining the cast, but actor Bruce Campbell, who has been playing Ash for over 30 years, has confirmed that he won't be involved in Mortal Kombat.
