(1/54) I've been trying to find more "liminal feeling" horror films to watch lately, & it's been surprisingly hard. And I decided pondering on the topic, I'd make a list of "Horror Movies with a Liminal Space Feel", 50 horror films I feel successfully capture a certain atmosphere

God, I've gotten so much better at drawing with a computer mouse. Compiled all the times I redesigned Honey, character for a project of mine, & though I still have much to improve in, I'm also honestly quite proud of the progress I've made in mouse drawing.

(1/??) Alright, let's do this. Here's my breakdown of Resident Evil Requiem's third official trailer, which also was the official reveal of Leon S. Kennedy in RE9.

As a note, this is a Leon hype trailer so Grace steps down a bit in focus, but I don't believe Leon will overshadow Grace in the game.

(1/20) I know some horror enthusiasts follow me, asking other horror nuts to peer review my "Complete" list of every horror film/series/anime adapting horror video games to see if I'm missing any, as planning to marathon them all next year for a video. I've not included any upcoming stuff with a TBA

There was some new Resident Evil Requiem gameplay of a new area with Grace fighting a zombie in the Resident Evil special program that aired on Japanese television.

Definitely the censored version since it aired on Japanese television, don't allow dismemberment/headshots.

(1/7) Was doing some computer cleaning (I tend to do it once a year around December), & found out I accidentally recorded some Roblox videos. 3 of them are only a few seconds long, the other 4 are 14 minutes long (I presume the recording cut out time), all of them on accident.

(1/3) Next year I'm gonna' experiment with making a new YouTube channel to explore the horror genre more in-depth. My goal is 6 bigger videos in 2-years, & then determine if worth doing more or not. I will be shamelessly plugging these videos when I release them.

The six videos I decided to tackle

Silent Hill 2 Remake on the Xbox not being at the Xbox Partner Preview is actually shocking, though kinda' funny since it's kinda' just... releasing with no fanfare then?
November 20, 2025 at 6:32 PM
The Xbox Partner Preview starts shortly. Silent Hill 2 Remake on the Xbox should be properly announced there, Re-Animal also is guaranteed to be there (which I'm not super hyped for after playing Little Nightmares 2 last month), & probably other things too www.twitch.tv/Xbox

(1/8) I'm going to do a "in defense post of Rinko from Silent Hill f. MAJOR SPOILER WARNING.

Rinko gets a lot of hate, & I get it, but I don't think people are seeing Rinko clearly.

To understand Rinko, you first have to understand the Rinko we see through the game ISN'T Rinko.

(1/3) Silent Hill f SPOILERS warning.

I really, really like SHf's layered narrative. Exploring about how being told to "be grateful" being thrown as you as an insult is a form of violence. Pressure to pay back for basic things, being belittled by parents, peers, etc, for simply

(1/7) 4Gamer had an interview on Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake with Makoto Shibata (director of every single FF game since the first one), & Hidehiko Nakajima from Team Ninja. Gave some interesting answers;
-They're not against remaking Fatal Frame 1 if fans want it, do say it'd need heavy
