Gameplay: 7 While it's a fun beat'em up with a few unique tidbits like the transformation system, the fighting is really on the simplistic side and grows tiresome quickly. I judge the presentation based on what the goals of the developer were, and in the case of Splatterhouse 3 and its 80's horror vibe, they came close to perfection The digitized photo story segments add an additional layer of camp that really captures the feeling that this game is trying to accomplish. The blood and gore is completely outrageous and some parts of the game are downright sickening.

Presentation: 9 Everything about this title screams 80's horror cheese. They became heroes for being bad and audiences couldn't wait to see how these madmen would dismember their next teenage victim. Their villains Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, and Michael Myers would become pop culture icons equal to characters like Batman and Spider-Man. Movie franchises like Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Halloween would see sequels, one after the other. At the end the murderous monster would be defeated with hints that he probably survived and that there would be a sequel.

In these movies a seemingly unstoppable and sometimes supernatural murderous psycho would go around slaughtering hapless victims, usually annoying teenagers who almost always have it coming. In the 1980's a phenomenon occurred in the motion picture industry, the golden age of the slasher flick.

In celebration of this October we're going to look at a game for the Sega Genesis that revels in the horror genre, Splatterhouse 3. Oh gosh a big spooky mansion, what could go wrong?
