The Wrong Kind Of Scary - Worst Horror Games Ever

GI writes:

When done right, horror-based video games are just as thrilling as the latest scare-fest in theaters. When they go wrong, they are more laughable and unbearable than a low-budget student horror flick. With terrible pacing, cheesy moments, and lousy mechanics, these titles represent what happens when a game tries to be scary and fails spectacularly. Sure, they may send shivers down your spine or make your heart skip a beat...but for all the wrong reasons.

FMV, lingerie clad women's sports team, drilling (with a 1/2" bit) into peoples' neck to siphon blood, and lots of vampires... Night Trap was a lot of fun. Not scary in the horror sense, but most "horror" games at that time were not actually scary. For a young kid the combination of video based sex and violence in a game was really fun, but not scary.

i loved
the cheesyness of the plot. them singing to the title song was cherry on top.

Oh and grabbed by the ghoulies...simplistic, addictive fun. Nothing wrong with that.
