Re: Picks for MONTH OF HORROR 3: Season of the Dream Warrior

I'll be playing Maniac Mansion and a Castlevania game - either Portrait of Ruin or Lords of Shadows.
I know that both of those games are different from the rest of the series, but I am wondering if either one of those is better or better suited to fall under the "horror" category?

Have you decided what you want to play?
As far as gaming is concerned, not yet. Though I did end September by watching Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. Tis the season, after all.

Tell me about it. I had heard that Henry was this really disturbing film and so terrifying...and then nothing. I actually got bored while watching it. Weak. Oh well, Bad Taste is next in my Netflix queue.

Oh I still really enjoy Henry. But it's no Maniac.

Bad Taste would be awesome if the vomit-drinking scene didn't make me literally gag. :\

Do we have an October horror film thread yet? My wife and I started our month of horror movies a week early, and I have a lot to write about.

I'm not really into Horror films/games much, so I wasn't going to join in here, but I actually probably have enough stuff with horror themes to join.

I'll try to play:
Maniac Mansion (PC)
Day of the Tentacle (PC)
Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins (PSP)
Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars (Wii)

The first 3 are pretty self explanatory, but if you haven't heard of Mushroom Men, it's an action platforming game for Wii with a bit of a schlock horror aesthetic to it:

It got some decent reviews back when it came out.


I could also replay Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (DS), Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts (SNES) or Luigi's Mansion (GC) should I find the time, but the others are priority because I've not played them before.
