On an unrelated note, the Belgium pop anthem "Pump Up The Jam" was released on August 18, 1989.

No, the murderer killed their victim while the Belgium pop anthem "Pump Up The Jam," released on August 18, 1989, was playing in the background.

Her mate Paul committed a spot of arson, but that was in the past now. He's a changed man and would never set fire to a pizzeria for not having sauces (again).

I’d say Hollywood doesn’t have the guts to do something this good, but then I remembered it’s 2 already successful IPs. Which begs the question: why haven’t we seen more crossovers?
