Should Lies of P Be Considered a Horror Game?

Lies of P is an action video game I have been wanting to play for so long. I'm waiting to purchase this game when it's a little cheaper, but even though I'm not a huge fan of these types of action games, the one thing that caught my attention was the concept to the story. 

This game follows the story of Pinocchio, who is traveling the city of Krat to put a stop to evil puppets and a deadly disease. So, in other words, we get an R - Rated version of Pinocchio, where this dude is a fighter. I'm so curious if his dad, his creator, is in the story. I'm sure he will be, and I'm wondering what sort of role he have in the game. 

After revealing the concept to you all, I think this game should be considered a horror game. 

Like come on, we got an emo Pinocchio going up against a bunch of evil puppets. That sounds like a horror story to me, with a bit of action thrown into the mix. Puppets are a part of the horror genre too, but I feel that they are so underrated in the genre! 

Once I officially play this game, I will be sure to write a full review for you all. I'm sure I will find more horror references to make this story a horror game, and I'm excited to go against all of these crazy bosses!

Pearl is a Wicked and Horrific Start to a Memorable Horror Trilogy

  Credit to  Halloween Horror: Pearl (2022) — 3 Brothers Film Have you ever been so impressed by and scared of a character at the same time? Mia Goth pulls off such a likable character with terrifying tendencies of murder and mayhem. Pearl  is actually a prequel to one of my favorite horror films,  X , and is the middle chapter in a trilogy. This trilogy was directed by Ti West, and it featured Mia Goth playing two different characters, as both the antagonist and the protagonist in this trilogy. The prequel starts off Mia as the villain, Pearl. Unlike the protagonist, Maxine, that has her dreams come true, Pearl isn’t exactly given the same happy ending. If it hadn’t been for her killer self, maybe she would have had a chance in the ‘star world.’ Instead, we are given a total downfall of Pearl embracing her monstrous side, killing anyone that stands in her way. Pearl is determined to leave the farm and start a new life elsewhere, but her present life consumes her. I’...

The Final Season of 'You' Ends on a Powerful Note

Image
  Credit to Google This article will contain major spoilers of You season 5. I am beyond thrilled with how You ended. People have always been mixed on what they think of this show, but I have always loved the insanity of this crazy serial killer.  Joe Goldberg is such a complex character who thrives on the power of love and is willing to do whatever it takes for the next woman he falls for.  He never hesitates to murder anyone, including his love interest. If she stops loving him, he will not hesitate to murder her. That is the main reason why Joe is freaking scary. He will be your knight in shining armor, but once that image of love is taken from him, he will show his true nature.  I loved how the final season focused on Joe’s evil self. While the first four seasons purposely viewed his character sort of like an antihero, the final season does not hold back on Joe’s evil side. We get a new glimpse into his character this time around, because in the earlier seasons,...

Image
  Credit to Rotten Tomatoes  I went to the movies last night to go watch the film,  Babygirl . The movie surprised me in many ways, and I was left speechless multiple times. Like what the heck did I just watch?? Before the movie began, like in any theater, I was watching several trailers. I watched three horror movie trailers that caught my attention: 1. Companion is going to be released on January 31st.  Credit to Bloody Disgusting Even though I now have an idea what the movie is going to be about, not enough was shown for me to fully understand just what the hell was going on.  I won’t spoil anything here, because I know that this film is going to be a complete surprise to everyone. The premise is already so original! 2. Death of a Unicorn is going to be released sometime this year.  Credit to A24 The trailer showed enough for me to become invested, and I died of laughter in several scenes. The cast also looks really awesome, and the monster that will be...
