While I love watching horror movies, playing horror games is apparently one degree too close for my fragile amygdala.
I can read about all kinds of creepy, horrifying things - ghosts, serial killers, body horror (that's a favourite) - but I'm an utter wimp when it comes to horror films. I recently read The Woman in Black, and found it quite creepy, in a cosy cuddle up with a blanket and a cup of tea kind of way. Then I watched the film, and I did make it all the way through, but not without plenty of flailing, jumping, and exclamating at the screen. I read Silence of the Lambs in my early teens, without being terribly affected, but I've never seen the film. I started watching it once, but I got to the bit where I knew they'd find a severed head in a jar, and then I found something else to do.
Amercan police departments have somehow turned into terrifying supervillain organizations. Terrifying, racist supervillain organizations.
