1000 Ways to Die (Magisterian TV series)

Wrath of Death is an anthology television series that currently airs on Extreme. Prior to it's TV broadcast, it was released on 10 January 2022 on CVplay. Just like it's predecessor,, the program recreates unusual supposed deaths, true events, and debunked urban legends, and includes interviews with real medical experts who describe the science behind each death. The program has two narrators: professional wrestler Alex Mushashibo, who narrated the first 15 taped episodes, and former 1000 Ways to Die narrator, who narrated the last 15 taped episodes.

The first season was met with positive reception, with critics praising Mushashibo's very lurid narration. The show was later renewed for a second season.

Stylization
Wrath of Death takes a tongue-in-cheek dark humor approach to death through its presentation of stories derived from both myths and science, and the show makes liberal use of artistic license to significantly embellish or change the circumstances of real-life incidents that resulted in death for greater entertainment value. Not only are the names changed, but also substantial amounts of the locations, dates and context.

Just like in it's predecessor, a frequently recurring motif is that of unsympathetic or unintelligent individuals' choices backfiring on them, resulting in death.

The show is filled with black humor (particularly in the narration) which tempers the otherwise somber theme of death. It portrays the deaths using live-action recreations of the events along with expert and sometimes witness testimony, also using graphic computer-generated imagery animations, similar to those used in the popular TV show, to illustrate the ways people have died, similar to the "X-Ray moves" of the 2011 reboot of Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat X, due to them showing bones being fractured and organs being damaged. A narration provides background information within each death-story, which all end with titles that are puns on popular figures of speech. Unlike it's predecessor, the number of deaths in the show can go more than 1000 deaths.
