Relax, there are no cats with peculiar names in Dagon.

Btw. I've played the original version and it was a quite short storytelling of the original novel with close to none interactivity. Not sure what the complete edition have added.

 

Shaun of the Dead’s Nick Frost is having a great year, he has not one, but two horror movies about to be released. First, the off beat Krazy House and the upcoming Get Away. The latter got a trailer drop today and it looks hilarious — the last scene in the trailer especially. “Everything’s fine!”

The film will drop on theatrically on December 6 and eventually make its way to Shudder sometime in the future.

A family’s vacation to a remote getaway takes an unexpected turn when they discover the island they’re on is inhabited by a serial killer.

Written and executive produced by Matthew Scott Kane, Hysteria! will be exploring America’s dark history of mass hysteria through the shocking story of the teenage Satanic Panic. The series follows a group of 1980s high school misfits as they exploit the growing hysteria around teen occult activity. Here’s the full official synopsis: When a beloved varsity quarterback disappears during the “Satanic Panic” of the late 1980s, a struggling high school heavy metal band of outcasts realize they can capitalize on the town’s sudden interest in the occult by building a reputation as a Satanic metal band, until a bizarre series of murders, kidnappings, and reported “supernatural activity” triggers a leather-studded witch hunt that leads directly back to them.

The horror genre built itself into the foundation of sequential art just as vigorously as superheroes, romance or science fiction. When psychiatrist Frederic Wertham published the misguided comics-skewering Seduction of the Innocent in 1954, the moral crusade was in response to the glorious groundswell of murder, corpses and grotesquery on the comics rack. Despite the beating the genre took from the ensuing Comics Code Authority, horror has spent the following decades creeping out of the recesses around mainstream publishing, with Dark Horse, Vertigo, Image, Humanoids and various manga lines filling our nightmares with harrowing new atrocities. In honor of Halloween, this list proudly presents our favorite comic book chillers, thrillers, slow burns and monster mashes, guaranteed to terrify and provoke readers with all the gory gifts this niche offers.

 

“With this debut novella, Ajram delves into shadowy liminal spaces, allowing readers to guide the main character deeper into a nightmarish labyrinth with no escape.”

Vicken’s plan is to throw himself into the Saint Lawrence River in Montreal and say goodbye to everything. Seems fitting after a life of nothing but depression and pain. But when he steps off the subway, he is soon caught in an endless, looping station.

Determined to escape, Vicken explores the corridors and rooms in the station. No matter how many hallways he goes through, or vast cathedral-esque rooms, the exit is nowhere to be found.

The more he explores, the more Vicken is convinced that being trapped in his strange new prison isn’t an accident. And while walking through the shadows, he comes to realize that he almost certainly is not alone. (...)

It's a fine movie as Syfy goes. That said i think that any Cronemberg movies can give you more "eldrich vibes".

Now my definition of cosmic horror boils down to movies that must have a terrified protagonist. Not because of the monsters or their dangerous surroundings, but because at some point in the movie, they realize that they have absolutely no power to change anything in the environment that surrounds them. Therefore films where the main characters struggle to fight against something that cannot be challenged, a battle that technically can't be won. In short, movies that don't have a happy ending. I'm going to be covering Cosmic horror-themed films. Movies that I feel do a fantastic job at adapting Lovecraftian themes. Not movies based on the works of HP Lovecraft.

Didn't play DS yet honestly, but if you can use the terrain, change builds and choose between close combat or ranger/magic weapon, then you have enough elasticity.

Elden is fair if you grind, explore and prepare for the enemies. Other games are basically "rhythm games" in disguise, you have to memorize the exact series of moves, in the exact order, with the right timing.

Why Keanu... why... 🤧

Whatever. As long as he keeps doing good action movies I don't give a damn of his beliefs. I still like Tom Cruise's movies and he's a scientology's nuts.
