Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Shoot-’em-up fans who like plenty of splatter should feel right at home with the crude,
rude and very bloody world of House of the Dead: Overkill, with its “goregasm” and
“psychotic” states of play. Inspired by B-movies, Overkill is packed with pop-culture
references and potty-mouthed characters, from blaxploitation cops to mutant
zombies.Action is split into a series of episodes, each with a distinctively retro
cinematic feel and tsunamis of blood, guts and brains. Subtle it’s not, but Overkill
is over-the-top fun for over-18s.
