I have seen more horror films than my mom would probably want me to see as a child, and I'm sure that games like Slatterhouse didn't subside my horror craving for long. And even as a child of the horror revolution, I can still say that Namco's Splatterhouse is as fun as the movies it's ripping off.

Ripping off? Well, let's just say that your charcter has a mask "forever" stuck to his face, like Jason in the Fiday the 13th films. You have to beat up worms, maggots, face shuckers (from the Alien films), and many more. And while the control is never anything better than average, and the scares never quite show up, the game is still the guilty pleasure I remember it being. Gone may be the years where these 2D, hack and slash games ruled the sale charts, but you can never have too much carnage. An interesting observation, while the game is clearly made by Namco (who also made the sequels on the Genesis), the box make mention that the game is by NAMCOT. Strange.
