10 Video Games Based On Horror Movies You've Completely Forgotten About
5. Fright Night
You have to love the number of licensed horror titles that were spawned on retro consoles in the 1980s. Unlike today, where the best we get is an annual Walking Dead mobile game, many classic movies got video game adaptations.
Admittedly, these releases varied greatly in quality, but one amongst them that is still worth a punt, if you've got an Amiga, is Fright Night.
Based on the classic vampire movie of the same name, Fright Night was released in 1988. However, rather than play the movie's hero as he looks to slay his vampiric neighbour, you actually got to play as a bloodsucking beast of the night.
Over the course of a number of nights, you take control of Jerry Dandrige, hunting invaders within his home and draining them of their vitals. The more nights you survived, the higher your score. Just make sure you get back into your coffin before the sun comes up. Nobody likes the smell of burnt vampire in the morning.
