Based on the character from the Masters of the Universe cartoon, Sideshow Collectibles' Evil-Lyn statue will be shipped early next year. Also in this round-up: release details for both The Dead Room and the Psycho-Pass prequel manga.

Sideshow's Evil-Lyn Statue: From Sideshow Collectibles: "Sideshow is proud to present the stunning sorceress, Evil-Lyn, who joins Skeletor and He-Man in our new statue collection inspired by the popular 80's cartoon series, Masters of the Universe!

Skeletor could not hope for a more capable ally than the sinister and sultry Evil-Lyn -intelligent, fearless, and gifted with an incredible mastery of dark magic - that is, when she isn't carrying out her own wicked schemes! Joined by her faithful falcon, Screeech, the conniving witch strikes a dramatic pose at the base of Snake Mountain in her signature headdress, intricate armor, and a dazzling costume that perfectly frames the serpent tattoos winding down her back. Using her magic staff and its crystal orb to foresee the future, Evil-Lyn is driven only by her unquenchable desire for power, and the day all of Eternia will feel her might!

Expected to Ship: Jan. 2017–Mar. 2017 - $439.99."

The Dead Room: Press Release: "IFC Midnight presents The Dead Room. Opens April 8th in select theaters and On Demand, iTunes, Amazon, X-box, Google Play, and PlayStation.

Step inside the Dead Room, where something sinister guards a home’s horrifying secrets. Inspired by a 1970s urban legend, this atmospheric nerve-shredder follows two scientists (Jeffrey Thomas & Jed Brophy) and a young psychic (Laura Petersen) as they travel to the countryside to investigate mysterious goings-on at a remote farmhouse. Skepticism quickly turns to terror, as the researchers’ presence unsettles a seriously angry demonic presence possessing the home. Upping the haunted house movie ante with visceral camerawork and unsettling sound design, THE DEAD ROOM creates a sense of palpable danger lurking in every corner and hallway.

Directed by Jason Stutter, The Dead Room stars Jed Brophy, Jeffrey Thomas, and Laura Petersen."
