10 Horror Video Game Movies EVERYONE Wants To See
10. Outlast
Let's kick things off with a video game that couldn't wear its cinematic influences any more proudly on its sleeve.
Outlast is a first-person survival horror franchise where players must use a camcorder to navigate through the dark, the night vision aesthetic clearly reminiscent of found footage horror films such as [REC] and Grave Encounters, among many others.
Outlast and its sequel are renowned as two of the scariest horror games of the past decade, and with their DNA already so firmly rooted in the visual language of cinema, why not make an actual movie out of them?
And of all the games on this wishlist, Outlast is probably the one most likely to actually happen, given that Lionsgate announced last October that they were indeed developing an Outlast movie.
Obviously, this doesn't mean the film will happen considering the many, many announced video game movies that never come to fruition, but given the generally lower-budget nature of found footage fare, the odds are certainly looking good.
