You could even have some players take on the role of the blind invaders, searching for prey via some form of sonar-vision.Īnother film that could be adapted into a game with similar mechanics would be Tremors, though the underground nature of the iconic Graboids means that they would probably be less fun to play than A Quiet Place’s Death Angels.
While you have to accept quite a few logical inconsistencies in order to enjoy John Krasinski’s insanely popular A Quiet Place movies (like how survivors never have to deal with noise-producing bodily functions and the flimsy reasoning for how the aliens differentiate human sounds from natural ones), even the harshest critic has to admit that the films’ sound-based paranoia would make for a great videogame mechanic.Īn online title where players are tasked with outsmarting the so-called “Death Angels” during hazard-filled levels sounds like a nail-bitingly intense experience with lots of replay value. Lastly, these entries have been selected according to the potential entertainment factor of a licensed videogame, not necessarily the overall quality of the movies themselves.Īs usual, don’t forget to comment below if you think we missed any entertaining horror flicks that would make for entertaining multiplayer games. We’ll also be focusing solely on direct adaptations, so no licensed DLC for titles like Dead by Daylight. First of all, no movies that have already been turned into licensed multiplayer videogames (though other kinds of games are okay). While this list is based on personal opinion, there are a couple of ground rules. Of course, there’s still an untapped well of memorable scary movies that could be translated into entertaining interactive experiences, and that’s why we’ve come up with this list of horror films that deserve their own multiplayer videogame adaptations.

Now that horror juggernauts like the Friday the 13th franchise and even Evil Dead have gotten in on the action, lesser-known properties like Full Moon Features’ massive catalogue of B-movies have also been getting the multiplayer treatment with projects like October Games’ upcoming Puppet Master: The Game. That being said, there’s no denying that multiplayer has taken over videogames over this past decade, captivating players with the unpredictable thrills of online cat-and-mouse matches. Spooky narratives tend to be scarier when experienced alone, and that’s why I’ve always preferred single-player horror gaming. The sound design, in particular, has probably made at least a few people vomit. It’s one of the most savage and barbaric kills in cinema history, and Zahler forces you to watch every second along with the horrified characters behind the cage. Locked up by the cannibal clan, Russell and Jenkins’ characters are forced to watch as they brutally dismember another human being, removing his scalp with a knife and then pulling his legs apart and splitting him down the middle with the titular weapon. One particular scene is one of the most shocking in recent years. The film starts off as a slow burn Western, driven by writing that’s as good as the individual performances, but when it embraces the horror… oh boy does it get ugly. Craig Zahler’s Bone Tomahawk, a hybrid horror-western that earned Zahler favorable comparisons to another filmmaker who became a bold force of nature in his debut outing: Quentin Tarantino.Īn incredible ensemble cast including Kurt Russell, Richard Jenkins, Matthew Fox and Patrick Wilson (along with brief appearances from Sid Haig and David Arquette!) star in Bone Tomahawk, the tale of a sheriff and three other men who embark on an epic rescue mission after a deputy and doctor are kidnapped by a band of vicious Troglodytes. This is Kill of the Week.ĭebut features are rarely as impressive as Brawl in Cell Block 99 director S. Every week, we spotlight a kill that we just can’t get enough of.
