1) Have you read comics before? If so, what is your history with the medium?

Yes, I actually hated comics most of my life until about 10 years ago where my brother started liking a few superheroes and I picked up a few comics including Batman: Shadow of the Bat and I actually liked them! From there, read a ton of Batman, Spider-Man, Avengers, X-Men, Punisher, the like, then I got introduced to Vertigo and truly realized how great comics are. Sometimes I fall behind on the current runs but I always catch up eventually. Prefer trades to buying monthly overall.

2) Are there characters or creators you are interested in learning more about?

I honestly have never read that much Wonder Woman, and there's a lot of Fantastic Four I wouldn't mind diving more into.

3) Do you have interested in comics outside of the traditional DC and Marvel universes? Would you be interested in comics that are sci-fi, fantasy, or even more literary works grounded in the real world?

Definitely, some of my favorite comics to delve into are a lot of 90s Vertigo deep cuts that are very grounded and gritty. Love horror comics naturally too

4) Are you adverse to language, graphic violence, drug use or nudity?

Not at all

70. WORLD OF HORROR (1bit Junji Ito inspired horror game) (16.5 points)
Nominated by: ihatethisCPU (3/5 remaining)
https://panstas.itch.io/world-of-horror


Importance: 2.5
Fear: 6
Snake: 8

Though there have been many games based on the Lovecraftian/Cthulhu mythos, there's always one thing or another holding them back from truly grasping the themes of despair and hopelessness that the original stories exude in spades. World of Horror however, seriously nails it. World of Horror is a love letter to both Lovecraft and Junji Ito, encompassing the best of both worlds to create an experience that's immersive, scary, atmospheric, and true to the original works, forlorn, wretched, and melancholic. With an art style that looks like it jumped off any Junji Ito panel, the simple black-and-white 1bit graphics leap off your screen with enough charm and imagination to match any AAA big-budget graphics powerhouse. From the ever-prevalent spiral to characters straight out of the uncanny valley, World of Horror easily nails all the visual aspects of Ito's work with aplomb.

Even more important than visuals is theming though. Through the RPG/card-based system, players embody their role, even choosing an Old God to start off the game with and sort of represent them, hinting from the very start that players and their characters are all but cursed to their fate and have little control over their upcoming destinies. The campaigns in the demo range from straightforward to complex, with my favorite one dealing with this entire web of mystery and intrigue about a local school legend, which has loads of branching paths and in my playthrough, ended with my character in a loony bin. My story had ended, I had succumbed to my own madness, and it was here I realized how well World of Horror truly embodies all of those aforementioned themes, and I absolutely adored it. It's a very hard and bold thing for a game to accomplish.

World of Horror deserves to be played by any fan of Ito, Lovecraft, or great horror. The demo is free and the stories are bite-sized, so you really have no excuse! I can't guarantee you'll come out with your sanity intact however.

71. Dead By Daylight (Game) (16.5 points)
Nominated by: Nathalmighty1 (2/4 remaining)


Importance: 4.5
Fear: 5
Snake: 7

I finally got to play this asymmetrical multiplayer survival horror game when it became free on PS Plus in August, and whilst it's an interesting game, it's not really something that sunk its teeth into me. It can feel a little slow-paced at times especially if the slasher you're up against is not very good, but with the right elements in place, it can feel like being in a genuine slasher flick. I've enjoyed being the stalker a lot more than the survivors, and it's a riot to really get fully invested into the role and act like a movie villain, with slow-paced walking and expertly timed jumpscares.

Depending on the killer you play as, your experience and difficulty in providing a challenge for other players will vary. I recommend starting with the Trapper, as he's relatively straight-forward with only melee and his bear traps to really worry about. I've found the Nurse one of the most fun characters, however, with her blinking ability allowing you to create ample oppurtunities to make other players piss in their pants.

Playing as a survivor is similar in gameplay mechanics to typical first-person horror/stealth affairs, with hiding spots and a simplistic objective that models itself after Slender-style note finding, just with generators. It works quite well though, and like I said, your fun with it will vary depending on how will your killer is doing.

Dead by Daylight tries desperately to capture that retro slasher-style film feel, but whether it suceeds is largely a 50/50 chance. When it does though, there's a certain type of magic to it that's hard to replicate.

72. Mr. Bones Wild Ride (16 points)
Nominated by: Anagram (5/6 remaining)
https://imgur.com/gallery/Wxzbl


Importance: 3
Fear: 5.5
Snake: 7.5

I've always found this meme/creepypasta quite a good story, and probably because there's something inherently creepy about amusement parks. Anytime you go on a roller coaster or a tilt-a-whirl, you're entrusting your safety to twisted amalgamations of metal, rusty seats, high speeds, and more than the average lazy worker. It's something not too far removed from a Saw trap. Yet, we still go on to experience a thrill, a break from the average norms, to feel more excitement than usual. Most of the time we don't even think about the risk. Little do we know however, the next ride we get on may be MR. BONES' WILD RIDE.

This hellish ride seems simple and inviting on the outside. A friendly looking skeleton in a top hat greets you at the entrance, promising chills and thrills that will surely leave your teeth chattering by the end of it. You get on, thinking of nothing but the fun that awaits you, but soon you realize how flat and boring it is. The one hill it had so far was lame and uninspiring, like something on a kid's coaster. The top-hat skeleton pops into your memory, now seeming like a cruel reminder of the swindling you're currently receiving. You can't wait to get off and maybe even complain online about what a shit ride this was, but it goes on and on, longer than any other ride you've ever experienced, 10-20-30 minutes pass, and you start to get a little worried. At 40 minutes, you start panicking, and even get to thinking you've been here at this amusement park before, and this ride was never around, seemingly popping out of nowhere. An hour, you're in tears begging to be let off. You scream endlessly, "I WANT TO GET OFF MR. BONES' WILD RIDE!" but the end never comes. It just goes on and on and on and on and on and on and... until 4 years have passed. You are nothing but skin and bones, somehow kept alive by surely mysterious forces, and you navigate the long exit path, only to be greeted yet again by the grinning skeleton with the sign, "THE RIDE NEVER ENDS".

Yes, the story is a little cheesy and implausible, but Mr. Bones' Wild Ride originates from the game Rollercoaster Tycoon, which allows room for some nightmare inducing storytelling on the player's part. Several variations add a real life spin to the story, such as the ride's creator in-game encountering the ride in real life before realizing a minute too late, and some variations change up the type of ride it is with differing endings most often including the death of the riders which is a little less cruel and soul-crushing than the original's spirit. The ride has even penetrated pop culture slightly, with a reference even appearing in The Simpsons episode, "How I Wet Your Mother".

It's a story I've always found fun, and like Creepypasta tends to do, it takes seemingly normal and fun things found in everyday life and manages to find the horror in it to great effect.

73. 13 Beloved (2006) (16 points)
Nominated by: Johnbobb (5/6 remaining)


Importance: 4
Fear: 5
Snake: 7

13 Beloved is a movie that won't be for everyone, but is one of those greats for genre fans that provides healthy doses of thrill in a high concept plot. Darkly humorous, 13 Beloved is all about Phuchit, a man down on his luck and the lengths he's willing to go through to solve his financial problems which seem to stack up by the second. At his most vulnerable, Phuchit receives a mysterious call claiming the chance to win 10,000 baht if he simply kills a fly that's been buzzing around him the entire time. It proves to be true, and from there Phuchit is inclined to keep playing for even bigger sums of money, however the tasks increasingly get more disgusting, violent, and life-threatening. It's kind of like the horror version of The Simpsons episode "Homer vs. Dignity". Though a lot of is certainly dealt seriously and can even be hard to watch, there's an air of comedy that hangs over the whole film many of which revolve Phuchit's sad life as the universe's perpetual punching bag which relieves a lot of the tension.

The film was remade as 13 Sins in the United States, and it's actually a surprisingly solid remake. It takes itself a lot more seriously though; they're both worth a watch in my opinion, but 13 Beloved definitely is the better version!

Nominated by: jcgamer107 (3/5 remaining)
Free download here: https://rastek.itch.io/animal-village

Importance: 2
Fear: 7
Snake: 7

At first glance, Animal Village seems unassuming enough. There's cute animals, a title screen that looks like some girly pet game, and an adorable starting town area with welcoming characters. Things start to take a turn however when you start to really get to know the villagers, and of course, when you enter the renowned "pit", where human sacrifices apparently used to be made. The pit is where things start to get really interesting, with hallways and rooms that look like typical apartments, and the game plays like your typical survival horror, with ammo conservation and a unique health system based around "blood". You can obviously feel something is up though without the game even telling you a lot, just like some of the best RPGmaker games like Dreaming Mary, Ib, or even something more mainstream like Undertale. The bosses of the game stand in stark contrast to the rest of the game's art style, crafting memorable moments around these encounters that truly become twisted as you uncover the game's true meaning and motives. The game is really worth a playthrough for yourself, and you can get through it in about an hour or so. Imaginatively scary with a unique cast of mysterious characters, Animal Village is a game that will be tough to remove from your memory.

A so-called "appetite demon" Neo is simply terrifying to look at. Depending on its form, Neo will have several bulbous and grotesque deformities growing all over its body, which is its most infamous form. No matter what Neo looks like however, they are each very scary in their own ways. The last form's empty, wide eyes seem to pierce into your soul, whilst its original scrawny form reminds me of Ao Oni and is unnaturally thin and skinny. Like some hellscape version of Galactus, Neo devours planets and all lifeforms, but not before each individual creature knows the true fear of Neo's full power and influence. In one particularly famous incident, Neo stood with a creature for days on end, until it was at peak fear, and for Neo, maximum flavor. It is never satisfied either, and will continue to eat and eat for its entire existence. With awesome power and fearsome forms, Neo is a creature that will easily haunt anyone's nightmares.

76. Ikari's Cardboard World (Paranoia Agent) (15.5 points)
Nominated by: trdl23 (3/5 remaining)


Importance: 1
Fear: 6
Snake: 8.5

Paranoia Agent's themes of fear and repression are represented best in the cardboard world, where you may be able to run from your problems, but ultimately it's a flat and hollow existence. Ikari's train of misery, from his police firing to the illness of his wife, would definitely make anyone wish for safe passage out of our cruel, mad world. And it may seem nice at first, nostalgic, simple, pleasant, and easy, but as all the 2D, unmoving, flat objects represent, it's a life that lacks any meaning with no connections to anyone or anything. It's ironic that Tsukiko, the catalyst and driving force behind the events of Paranoia Agent, is the one who eventually convinces Ikari to break free from this fiction, smashing the fake boundaries and becoming real himself again. It perhaps lacks subtlety, but god damn if it isn't powerful and can even be personally touching for anyone going through a similar situation in each of our own ways.

77. Lee Everett (Telltale's The Walking Dead: Season 1) (15.5 points)
Nominated by: Inviso (4/6 remaining)


Importance: 4.5
Fear: 3.5
Snake: 7.5

I think Lee Everett made season 1 of Telltale's The Walking Dead what it was. Lee was that player-avatar element that future seasons lacked; Clementine is too defined as a character to work in a narrative driven by player-choice. Lee's backstory is murky, in a way like Andy Dufresne's in The Shawshank Redemption was, whereas Clementine's is completed and solidly defined from her very first on-screen appearance. As Lee, you can make up lies about your past to whom you choose to, deny your crimes, or even seek redemption for them. This unique opportunity to step into your character's shoes and define their personality in such a personal narrative was almost unrivaled at the time.

There always comes a point in the post-apocalypse where your past stops mattering however, and this is when Lee's relationship with Clementine, Kenny, and many others starts taking center stage. Like it or not, Lee is stuck with this little girl throughout his journey by pure circumstance, and Lee can be as fatherly or as distant as the player wishes. Getting close to Clementine and teaching her the tools of survival in a harsh world makes for the most compelling journey in The Walking Dead, starting with a simple choice on Hershel's farm early on to the heartbreaking conclusion I won't spoil if you haven't played or seen it. That's not to say there's no value in going the opposite path, as maybe you think Clementine shouldn't really form any close bonds with anyone if she truly wants to make on this zombie-plagued Earth. Either way, Lee's character blossom out the way you see fit, developing different facets of his emotions and personality, from the rage-fueled to the calm and understanding.

I won't touch on every character Lee meets and travels with, but Lee's relationship with Kenny deserves discussing too. The opportunity for friendship presents itself early on, but the relationship here is like handling a crate of nitroglycerin. Anyone that comes between Kenny and his family's survival is simply an antagonist for Kenny, and there are many moments where you have to sacrifice your friendship to get closer to Clementine and yes, even vice-versa. In a way, Kenny is pushed to Lee's most aggressive extremes, and Lee can become just like Kenny if the player makes the appropriate choices.

The ability to truly control Lee's character and personality made for a story that still stands up to the test of time in my eyes. Lee is at his heart an archetype given to the player to mold the way they see fit, and as a result, we ourselves become the true survivor in this tragic tale of death and unholy resurrection.

Trippy and surreal are really the best ways to describe this music video. The animation is reminiscent to me of a rougher and uglier Adventure Time, which I'm typically not the biggest fan of, but it works really well here. The video compliments the music nicely, with the lyric, "I'll find you and I'll kill you" becoming particularly more haunting with the accompanying visual. Some of the video is a bit random like when the priest turns in to and out of a blob of jelly but I suppose it does add to the unsettling nature of the entire piece. There are some elements of dark comedy here, especially with the rainbow background at the end with the slight lyric change perfectly hammering home the just desserts the two brotherly murderers received. It's a short trip into the strange and unusual that's simply creative and even a little catchy musically despite the subject matter.
