Everyday is Halloween with Movie Monsters In Retro Games Oct 28th 2011, 00:40 Horror movies and video games seem to go together like Freddy Kruger and nightmares as they both follow pop culture cut followings; so why not leverage the already famous Hollywood movie monsters for video games? Sometimes their great, most times there not, and nothing scares a gamer worse than a horrible movie licensed game...of course even the bad ones can be good for some cheesy laughs. - Nightmare on Elm Street - 1, 2, Freddy may be coming for you, but he sure ain't taking time to play this weird video game based on one of the most famous horror film franchises of all time. It's not a surprise Freddy Kruger never returned to our video game nightmares.
- The Toxic Crusaders Video Games - The hideously deformed creature of super human size and strength, the Toxic Avenger, star of the sex and gore-infused horror-comedy flicks from Troma Studios was toned down to create an animated spin-off for kiddies, a toy line and of course three classic video games.
- Killer Shark - Okay, this old-school arcade game isn't based on a movie, but it actually guest starred in a horror movie, mainly the big daddy killer shark flick of them all, JAWS!
