What Dreams Are Made Of
Silent Hill- is one of my all time favorite games of all time. Its also one of my all time favorite psychological horror games. Its twisted, suspenseful, insane and very very foggy. So much fog in this game, you dont even know were your going. Its a plus cause it adds to the atmosphere to the game. The downfall, you probley get lost. Other than that, its a excellent game.

The Game: you play as Harry Mason as he searches for his missing adopted daughter in the eponymous fictional American town of Silent Hill; stumbling upon a cult conducting a ritual to revive a deity it worships, he discovers her true origin. Five game endings are possible, depending on actions taken by the player, including one joke ending.

The objective: The player is to guide main protagonist and player character Harry Mason through a monster-filled town as he searches for his lost daughter, Cheryl. Silent Hill's gameplay consists of combat, exploration, and puzzle-solving.

The Gameplay: The game uses a third-person view, with the camera occasionally switching to other angles for dramatic effect, in pre-scripted areas. This is a change from older survival horror games, which constantly shifted through a variety of camera angles. Because Silent Hill has no heads-up display, the player must consult a separate menu to check Harry's "health".

If you play the PS3 verison, the DualShock controller is used a heart beat rhythm can be felt signifying that the player is at low health.

Visibility is mostly low due to fog and darkness; the latter is prevalent in the "Otherworld".

Navigating through Silent Hill requires the player to find keys and solve puzzles.

Its a excellent game, that pefectly represents the psychological horror genre.

If spending 7 hours in one sitting is still a bit daunting, you can always try this one that comes in at just over 3 hours over 4 easy to digest episodes. It focuses on a crime so bizarre you wouldn’t believe it wasn’t a film plot, unless you already have an understanding from these kind of shows just how bonkers America can be! It describes the events of a bank heist gone wrong in a small town, involving a middle aged man who claimed to have a homemade bomb clamped around his neck that he couldn’t take off… soon into episode one we see that it was real when we (sort of) witness it going off after he is apprehended, killing him instantly.

We then get led down an intriguing web of local suspects, whose motives and probable involvement becomes more and more bizarre and disturbing. The point of it all seems to be how it is possible to be extremely intelligent, manipulative and to an extent organised, whilst at the same time being quite clearly clinically insane. It is shocking to see and hear about the lives of people so off the rails, who believe themselves to be entirely normal. There are a lot of “oh my god” and “wow” moments in a short space of time, but you also feel a little like the case is being exaggerated and heightened for dramatic purposes. In the end it all seems fairly self explanatory, except that the case was never definitively closed because it is impossible to know if the guy with the bomb was part of the plan all along and therefore a willing accomplice, or whether he was entirely innocent and a victim of a very sinister crime. Being left to debate and decide for yourself is half the “fun” sometimes.
  
Nosferatu (Eine Symphonie Des Grauens) (1922)
Nosferatu (Eine Symphonie Des Grauens) (1922)
1922 | Horror, International

"I’ll just start with the Werner Herzog’s Nosferatu. That’s one of my top fives, primarily because I love the Dracula story, of course. And I’m a huge fan of the 1922 [F.W.] Murnau film and I love that Herzog took the time to go to the actual locations where the original was shot. It’s just so simple and it is such a slow, deliberate mood throughout the film that borders on taking too much time — to the point where it’s almost a meditative state as a viewer that you get into. And that’s not even counting Klaus Kinski‘s portrayal of the vampire which, to me, rivals the [Max] Schreck 1922 portrayal. But I’m such a Kinski fan, and knowing — having insight as to how out of his mind he was in real life — portraying the vampire really lends a lot of layers to viewing it. It’s one of those few cases in which knowing the actor that portrays the role actually creates more depth in the role itself. Where normally you would want to avoid that kind of influence, in this case it really works. Because Klaus Kinski’s so unpredictable as a human being. I would imagine, based on what I’ve heard, much like Max Schreck was in 1922, it’s really a lot of interesting parallel there. For a color adaptation, it’s almost camp, in a way, but… it hasn’t crossed that line — but it almost is. I think the portrayal of Jonathan, and frankly, the girl in it [Isabelle Adjani as Lucy Harker] is probably one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen in my life. If you haven’t seen it in a while, revisit it… she’s just insane."
