PopHorror Let's Get Scared
The co-writer of FPS: First Person Shooter, Richard Moss, is back with a new project, TerrorBytes: The Evolution of Horror Gaming, a documentary series celebrating horror in video games. The five-part series features insights and anecdotes from over 50 horror and games industry legends, including acclaimed horror filmmaker John Carpenter, composer Akira Yamaoka, DOOM co-creator John Romero, Deadly Premonition and The Missing director Swery, Until Dawn [game] director Will Byles, Frictional co-founder Thomas Grip, Her Story and Silent Hill Shattered Memories writer Sam Barlow, Silent Hill 2 and 3 translator/voice director Jeremy Blaustein, and many more.
This fascinating series takes a dive behind the scenes of some of the most iconic horror games of all time. You’ll hear from the creators themselves as they discuss game development, how they used the technology limitations of the past to their advantage, and their influences.
Just like with FPS, TerrorBytes keeps it fresh and interesting as you watch hours of interviews and footage, broken up into five episodes here, without it ever feeling like a stale information dump.
If you’re a gamer, don’t pass this up. Terrorbytes is easily the definitive horror game documentary.
You can get Terrorbytes as well as FPS on their website https://terrorbytesdoc.com/.
