| News | Anime Vice Halloween Special: Yokai University | Oct. 31, 2009 |
So over on Giantbomb two of the interns are doing a series called the Fear Gauntlet and it's hysterical. Basically the idea is that two self proclaimed cowards want to try and become tough and manly by playing the scariest games of all time and it's freaking hilarious. I highly recommend that everyone checks it out.
But it got me thinking, October is nearly here, and that's the perfect time for horror themed content to make its way onto the web, and there are tons of frightening animes and mangas out there, and let's be honest, AnimeVice could always do with some more content. So as an homage to the guys on Giantbomb, and as a way to celebrate the month of ghost and ghouls, I'm going to start my own Fear Gauntlet here. Granted I'll probably call it something different so that it doesn't look like I'm just flat out ripping off the hard working interns over on GB, but who are we kidding.
So here's what I need from you folks to help me prep. Give me your scariest horror recommendations. What are the scariest animes you've seen and mangas you've read. List them below so I can build this list!
- Tenchu Z (Yeah, I know it's not the greatest game in the world, but it's only $5)
- Afro Samurai
- Ninja Blade
- Too Human
- Prince of Persia (2008)
If I had more money I would have got a few more, but sadly, I don't. I was hoping to find Deadly Premonition there, but didn't see it. If I went right when they opened, I could have got Red Dead for $5. :(
My brother got a shit ton of movies and some games like Crackdown 2.
So if you have a Blockbuster in your area, check and see if anything is going on.
Also.......................AWESOME REACH!!!!!!!!
That is all my friends.
P.S.
Considering the ammount of artistic possibilities for the nightmares, I say that it would be one of the best horror-anime's of recent time (if it is given a decent story-telling, that is...), but I'm still very unshure wich animation studio should get the responsibility for it.
