In this edition of The Silver Lining, we’ll be covering Johannes Roberts’ videogame adaptation, Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City! The Resident Evil franchise is the undisputed king of the survival horror genre. Sure, the overarching plot of these games makes less sense the more you think about them, but in a series that has always tried to emulate the cheesy thrills of midnight B-movies, this isn’t really an issue. Unfortunately, the lack of a straightforward narrative became a problem when the franchise’s massive popularity led to a high-profile adaptation...

Resident Evil may have popularized Survival Horror as a genre, but Silent Hill really cemented these games as vehicles for legitimately chilling narratives. Over the years, the franchise has churned out some of the most recognizable imagery in gaming despite being unfairly neglected by Konami and not seeing a mainline entry for over a decade. While Silent Hill titles have always been lauded for their impeccable visuals and brilliant sound design (not to mention those kick-ass soundtracks), what made these games truly scary was their narrative consistency and attention to...

With this week’s announcement of the impending 4K release of the 1997 neo-slasher classic I Know What You Did Last Summer, fans might be left scratching their heads over one particular bonus feature noted in the upcoming disc’s press release. In addition to a new scan of the film and a new Dolby Atmos audio track (as well as numerous supplements ported over from the original DVD and Blu-ray releases), Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has seen fit to include 6 new deleted scenes and an alternate ending – none of...

20th Century Studios brings Dan Trachtenberg‘s (10 Cloverfield Lane) Prey exclusively to Hulu on August 5, a brand new take on the Predator franchise that focuses on all new characters.

I vividly remember them saying there was this...

All the talk of Supermassive’s The Quarry and how awesome it is, and we forget about The Dark Pictures Anthology‘s upcoming entry in The Devil in Me. That’s about to change, as Bandai Namco have released a brand-new trailer for The Devil in Me, revealing its disturbing location for its unsuspecting cast. The Devil in Me concerns the Lonnit Entertainment TV crew, who are struggling to keep afloat with their competition. Fate intervenes when they receive a pressing and mysterious phone call from a man called Granthem Du’Met, with a...

Psycho is given a great deal of credit for redefining the direction American horror would take in the 1960s, and rightly so, but another film also deserves recognition for its innovations and influence. Like Psycho, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? signaled a shift from aliens, giant bugs, and atomic monsters to the more subtle and psychological horrors hidden behind the closed doors of modern society. Rather than taking place in an isolated gothic castle, Baby Jane is set in an affluent neighborhood in the suburbs of Los Angeles and...
