A Classic Game: Splatterhouse

I’m a huge fan of the original Splatterhouse & sequels).  They were dark, gore-filled (for the time) and surreal.  The level where you face a poltergeist, revealed via haunted household objects is a great exercise in horror gaming, as was the room of meat.  It was re-made as a 3D next-gen game recently and I did buy a copy and wanted to like it and while it has some fun bits, overall it didn’t work for me 😦
