The growth and evolution of horror games over the past few decades is remarkable. From early examples like Haunted House released on the Magnavox Odyssey in 1972, to modern classics like 2021's Resident Evil Village, horror video games have evolved into a complex, diverse, and sophisticated art form. A plethora of scary stories exist within the medium, and filmmakers have adapted some of those stories into movies.
Ranging from cheap and dumb to artful and amazing, horror movies based on video games make up an eclectic collection. There are lots of zombies and various other monsters to be found in this niche sub-genre, but there are also psychological horror and surprisingly moving narratives in certain examples.
