Luci Fulci, Dario Argentento and other italian, exploitation directors of the 70's and 80's certainly had a way with gore that's hard to find anywhere else. The murderscenes in Susperia and Inferno and the fucking insane vomit-scene from The City of the Living Dead in particular comes to minds.

The rape scene in A Clockwork Orange both scared me and was what sparked my interest in movies... I just couldn't believe you could show that shit on screen. Speaking of Kubrick, the typewriter scene from The Shining always freaks me the fuck out for some reason. That one's hard to explain though.

I've seen Salo and found that to be more upsetting than disturbing in a good way. The intentions behind Salo are fine and you really feel the directors hate towards the fascists, but the violence ends up feeling super cheap, exploitative and unearned. The only reason so called movie-buffs seem to like it is the pretty scenaries and the fact that it's about "hey-you-guys-fascism-is-like-super-bad".

Other movies worth mentioning are Evil Dead (2013 or the original, take your pick), Caligula (if you havn't watched Caligula, oh god, WATCH CALIGULA!), Wolf Creek, Mulholland Dr., Pontypool and Straw Dogs. Straw Dogs may be the most uncomfortable I've ever been watching a movie. Black Christmas really fucked me up to (the original, of course, not the awfull fucking remake).

This reads out like Klepek is just a bit tipsy. Still entertaining article and informative for news that is basically "hey remember that guy on who says a lot of shit on Twitter and who was on MS press conferences a lot back in the last gen days? Yeah he's making a game. It will be okay, I guess."

I was one of the dudes who jumped at Patricks comment about yet another Wolfenstein game being depressing and as of such, I appriciate this article! It takes a lot to, not admit that you're wrong, but to reavaluate and contemplate on statements said. And this article does a great job of doing exactly that.

Looks great. I'm too terrified of scary faces to play this (I still haven't seen The Grudge or really any Japanese horror... My guess is it's not nearly as scary as I make it out to be, but fuck scary faces!), but I'm glad it's being made

I'm thinking about picking up the comic if nothing else to better understand the characters background and motivation. How many should I buy? Is there a specific volume that focuses on the characters from The Wolf Among Us? Any lexicon which goes through wwhere the different characters are from (their respective fairy tale)

I thought the writing of Episode 2 was weirdly off, which leads me to liking this a bit more though I agree completely with Alex on this episode feeling like busy work. The first episode was really strong and I still like the art style, but the whole fairy tale angle doesn't give me much I hate that the series will often just presume that the player knows who the fuck all these people are - case in point; Bluebeard. I have no idea why Snow don't trust him or why he's made out to be a bad guy.

It's still better than Walking Dead Season Two which I so far have found to be somewhat weak both in the technical department, gameplay-wise and the writting. I still don't feel like Clementine really is a 'character' per say, and I have yet to really connect to any of the other people.

Also while their replacement for "The Govenor" seems like a great character but I still fucking loath the original guy, so I really fear what they will do with the third episode

That picture made me shed a tear, and it's Christmas, god damn you Klepek :'D

Very intersting list, it speaks volumes of how amazing a gaming year 2013 has been that Metro Last Light, Zelda and/or Bioshock isn't anywhere on this list. Also I need to go play Papers Please like right now!
