Doc Haggis: *thoughtful puppy eyes*
Lurking Fear (1994)
DO NOT REPOST WITHOUT PERMISSION!
3 notes · View notes
Lurking Fear (1994) has got some of the most untapped potential that I've ever seen in a B-rated horror movie. Like, there are so many aspects of it that could have been really cool, but the only real thing it delivered was an awesome Jeffery Combs performance (as if there's any other kind).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The designs for the monsters are actually pretty cool as long as they aren't lingered on for too long. For the majority of the movie, their pretty spooky because they're only seen briefly as they attack before they disappear. We only see the maimed townsfolk and the aftermath. But then that one started talking and I kid you not, I almost dropped to the floor I was laughing so hard.The delivery of "You called me Satan >:(" in that stupid deep evil voice was too much for me man.

Almost everything else sucked.

More Cyberpunk Gaming Gems: Unearthed Treasures from 1985-2005
Welcome, fellow cyberpunks and digital nomads of the future past! In a world where neon lights flicker, mega-corporations reign supreme, and hackers lurk in the shadows, we often find solace in the virtual realms of gaming. But wait, have you ever felt like you've explored every nook and cranny of the cyberpunk gaming landscape? Fear not, for we're about to dive deep into the retro archives and uncover some hidden cyber-treasures that have been overshadowed by their more renowned siblings.
Cyberpunk gaming has always been a beloved subculture, but many of its gems seem to have slipped through the cracks of time. Today, we're embarking on a nostalgic journey through five cyberpunk classics from 1985 to 2005. Buckle up, because we're about to revisit the past in style!
1. B.A.T. (Bureau of Astral Troubleshooters) - 1989: A Galactic Adventure
Prepare to embark on an interstellar journey that takes you beyond the realms of our planet. B.A.T. offers a captivating blend of point-and-click adventure and science fiction, making it a true cyberpunk hidden gem. As a futuristic detective, your mission is to investigate mysterious happenings across the galaxy.
The game immerses you in a universe teeming with colorful characters, complex puzzles, and intricate plotlines. What sets B.A.T. apart is its commitment to world-building; it offers players a chance to explore distant planets, each with its own unique culture and challenges.
But beware, in this universe, nothing is as it seems. The choices you make have far-reaching consequences, and the line between right and wrong is blurred. B.A.T. is a cerebral journey that will test your investigative skills, moral compass, and problem-solving prowess. It may not have garnered the attention it deserved, but for true cyberpunk aficionados, this is a must-play classic that will transport you to the outer edges of the cosmos.
2. Beneath a Steel Sky - 1994: A Tale of Rebellion and Redemption
Imagine a world where skyscrapers loom over a dystopian cityscape, and a resistance movement fights against the tyranny of a malevolent AI. This is the grim backdrop of "Beneath a Steel Sky," a point-and-click adventure that deftly blends cyberpunk aesthetics with a gripping narrative.
In this game, you play as Robert Foster, a man torn from his idyllic life in the wastelands and thrust into the heart of a totalitarian metropolis. The game excels in its world-building, creating a hauntingly beautiful urban sprawl rife with secrets and subterfuge.
What sets "Beneath a Steel Sky" apart is its intricate storyline and memorable characters. The witty dialogue and thought-provoking themes of identity and rebellion make it a standout in the genre. As you unravel the mysteries of this dark and complex world, you'll find yourself drawn into a narrative that's as immersive as it is unforgettable.
3. HardWAR - 1998: Survive in a Post-Apocalyptic Playground
Step into a post-apocalyptic playground like no other in "HardWAR." This underrated gem presents a gritty, atmospheric world where civilization has crumbled, and scavengers roam the decaying remnants of a once-thriving city.
As a scavenger, your goal is survival, and survival in this unforgiving wasteland means scavenging for resources, upgrading your vehicle, and engaging in intense vehicular combat. "HardWAR" offers a unique blend of open-world exploration, resource management, and vehicular warfare.
The game's dystopian setting is brought to life through its striking visuals and moody soundtrack, creating an immersive experience that truly transports you to a world on the brink of collapse. While it may not have received the recognition of some of its contemporaries, "HardWAR" is a must-play for fans of gritty, post-apocalyptic cyberpunk adventures.
4. Freelancer - 2003: Soar Through the Stars
"Freelancer" might not fit the traditional cyberpunk mold, but it offers an expansive and enthralling universe that's worthy of exploration. Set in a distant future where humanity has colonized the stars, you play as Edison Trent, a freelancer navigating the intricacies of a dynamic and ever-changing galaxy.
The game's open-world design is a standout feature, allowing you to choose your path as you trade goods, engage in epic space battles, and uncover the secrets of the universe. The rich lore and vibrant world of "Freelancer" create an experience that's both immersive and endlessly replayable.
But remember, these are just a few of the cyberpunk gaming gems that have been tucked away in the annals of gaming history. There are countless other titles waiting to be discovered. Do you have any personal favorites from the cyberpunk gaming scene of the past? Share your gems with us, and who knows, they might be featured in our next cybernetic escapade!
So, fellow gamers and tech enthusiasts, keep your cyberdecks at the ready, and your sense of wonder intact. The world of cyberpunk gaming is vast, and there's always something new to uncover. Until next time, stay plugged in and keep those retro vibes alive!

Top 5 survival-horror videogames in 2023
Hello everyone today I will talk about one of the best survival-horror games in 2023.
5. Alan Wake
Tumblr media
it is an action and adventure game that captivates us from the first minute. Alain Wake is a writer who decides to go to the town of Bright Falls to look for his wife, it turns out that she has disappeared under strange circumstances. Once he reaches his destination, he quickly realizes that he will have to unravel a mystery. A dark presence is lurking and doesn't know who or what it is. Alan Wake's terror is more subtle and narrative, where the head plays tricks on the protagonist. The player will not be able to tell what is true and what is not, while the writer overcomes a mental block that has him in a major crisis. The game has one of the best tense and suspenseful atmospheres ever seen.
4. Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle
Tumblr media
Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is a third-person survival horror focused on a story that takes place several years before Daymare: 1998, also a video game in the genre. In the development of Invader Studios, players get into the shoes of special agent Dalila Reyes, a former government spy now in the service of a unit called H.A.D.E.S. (Advanced Exploration and Subtraction Six-Team), as he plunges into the darkness of the desolate, labyrinthine depths of a military research complex and faces terrible and deadly dangers.
3. The Medium
Tumblr media
It is a third-person psychological horror action game developed by Bloober Team, creators of Layers of Fear. The player controls Marianne, a pregnant medium who has psychic abilities to connect with another spiritual reality, so she can explore the real world and the spiritual world at the same time. The Medium plays with the duality of two worlds: the physical and the spiritual. From there it is normal for the protagonist to relive memories to find the answer to many questions. Taking advantage of that circumstance, the game becomes quite disturbing in a very puzzling atmosphere. In addition to different puzzles, the protagonist will meet a monster born from an unspeakable tragedy.
2. Resident Evil Remake
Tumblr media
The game takes place in Raccoon City, where a deadly virus has infected the population, turning them into zombies. The player takes control of Leon S. Kennedy, a rookie police officer, or Claire Redfield, a college student, as they try to survive and escape the city. One of the most impressive aspects of Resident Evil 2 Remake is its graphics. The game features highly detailed graphics and environments, which helps to create a spooky and immersive atmosphere. The sound is also impressive, with a haunting soundtrack and sound effects that keep you on your toes throughout the game. Gameplay-wise, Resident Evil 2 Remake maintains the series' mechanics of combining elements of survival, exploring a terrifying environment, and fighting enemies while seeking to solve puzzles and progress through the story.
Dead Space Remake
Tumblr media
Dead Space, the sci-fi survival horror classic, returns, completely rebuilt from the ground up for a deeper, more immersive experience. This remake features astonishing visual fidelity, suspenseful ambient sound, and gameplay enhancements, without losing any of the bone-chilling vision of the original game. Isaac Clarke is a random engineer tasked with repairing the hulking extractor ship USG Ishimura , but you will discover that something has gone terribly wrong. The ship's crew have been murdered and his beloved companion Nicole is missing somewhere on board. With no one to accompany him and armed only with his tools and engineering skills, Isaac will have to hurry to find Nicole as he unravels the secret. terrifying mystery of what happened aboard the Ishimura. Trapped with hostile creatures, the necromorphs, Isaac faces a battle for survival not only against the horrors of the ship, but to avoid falling into madness.
I hope you find useful and liked the content and see you next time.

fear street 1994 in my stranger things au graphic series 
When Robin hears about the so-called poolside slayings, she’s frankly not that surprised. It’s terrible, obviously. Horrific, really. But for Shadyside? Yeah, it’s not surprising. It seems like everything that can go wrong will in this town, and they can never go more than a few years without a serial killer or mass murderer or fucking fairytale freak like the Humpty Dumpty Killer reminding them that everything in Shadyside will always turn to shit. So when Billy Hargrove pulls on a pair of giant swim goggles and goes on a killing spree that ends with him shot dead with his knife still buried in Heather Holloway’s chest, well, it’s honestly sort of par for the course. At least the pool was about to close for the season with the school year starting anyway.
Still, everyone’s talking about it at school when Robin shows up the next day, both decorating Heather’s locker with pictures and notes and also dragging slashed CPR dummies through the hallways while cackling like a witch. Because yeah, apparently all those murders are the witch’s work. At least that’s what Steve says Dustin is saying when she meets up with him and Nancy at lunch. Things have been weird between the two of them since their breakup last year, but Steve’s new job as the assistant gym teacher after he graduated last year has them brokering a tentative peace, and when it comes to this, they’re on the same page: The witch did it.
Or, not really. They’re just joking. They don’t really buy into the whole we’re-all-fucking-doomed thing the same exact way Robin does, the same way Dustin fiercely believes that the witch is real. They’re just coping the same way everyone in this town seems to: by making it all one big joke. But at least they care. Deep down. The Sunnyvalers — the Sunnyvalers don’t even see any of them as real people. And they make that perfectly clear at the vigil for the victims Mayor Kline hosts before the big Shadyside-Sunnyvale game.
Robin doesn’t see any of that, though. She doesn’t hear the Sunnyvalers talking shit, doesn’t catch who threw the punch. No, Robin’s not on the field at all. Instead, she’s over by the bathrooms, lurking in the dark, waiting for Chrissy to show up so Robin can give her all of her stupid stuff back. She hadn’t been mad earlier, before the game, but when she’d seen Chrissy — when she’d seen Chrissy standing with her new boyfriend, the stupid football player’s hands all over Chrissy’s ass — her vision had gone red, and it had stayed that way, and it continues to stay that way as the sheriff breaks up the fighting, as Steve shepherds the Shadysiders back onto their bus, as Nancy whips everyone on the bus into a vengeful frenzy.
The haze only clears when the water cooler slips out of Robin’s hands and bounces off the windshield of Jason Carver’s car, sending him and his friends careening off the road and into the woods. Because Chrissy was in that car. And Robin had known that, had seen her sitting in the front passenger seat, and that had been part of what drove her anger hot enough to grab the water in the first place. She’d only wanted to piss Carver off, maybe get him to stop fucking following their bus all the way home. She’d meant to throw its contents, not the cooler itself, but when she loses her grip it’s almost like being doused in ice water herself, the burning rage from a moment ago extinguished in one panicked flash.
When Robin stumbles into the woods, it only takes a moment to follow the tracks and find the wreck, the car smashed against a rock with Carver and the other jocks still inside. It takes another moment, a longer moment to spot Chrissy, but then Robin sees her, in the dirt on her hands and knees, face pale and eyes far away, blood dripping from her nose and a gash on her temple.
After that, Robin thinks nothing in the world could tear her away from Chrissy. It doesn’t matter that they’ve broken up, that Chrissy is closeted, that she has a new boyfriend and a new life in Sunnyvale. Forget their fight, that Robin is a doomed Shadysider and Chrissy has literally moved out and moved on to better things. With Chrissy in the hospital, Robin is determined to make things right. Make this work. But it turns out, there is one thing that can stop her in her tracks: the stern voice of Laura Cunningham demanding that Robin stop calling, accusing her of ruining Chrissy’s life completely.
So Robin gives up, goes back to her life, accepts that it’s over. For real. At least until Carver shows up outside of her house wearing giant swim goggles and holding a knife. When he actually breaks into Steve’s house and starts cutting up his clothes, that means war, and before she knows it, Nancy and Steve and Dustin are waiting down the hall at the hospital while Robin goes to tell Chrissy to call her boyfriend off. Only when Carver shows up — when a knife suddenly juts out of his chest, blood dribbling out of his mouth — it becomes clear he really isn’t the one in the costume. Someone else is wearing it, someone else who wants them dead. Someone who looks suspiciously like Billy, the bullet hole still centered between his brows.
It doesn’t take long to realize that Chrissy is the one he’s after. That he’s not the only crazed killer after her. They’re all back, all of those claimed by the witch, and the curse is real, and the killers are determined to see Chrissy dead. Well, Robin’s not going to let that happen, and with Steve and Nancy and Dustin on their side, they’re all determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, to break the curse, to put the witch’s bones to rest. First, though — first, they’ll need to live long enough to do it.

☁️, 💌 and 🪐 please!
Thank you! :D
☁️ - What made you choose your username?
I love this one, and I finally get to drop my username lore! This is actually quite a bit of history, so buckle up.
As a child, I was obsessed with Lassie, which is something that not a lot of people seem to really know for some reason. Anyway, my Lassie is actually split between the 1994 and 2005 movies, although I only saw the 1994 version later in my childhood and grew up with the 2005 one.
This obsession was so much so that whenever little me played make-believe, I would call myself Lassie and, well, it just kind of stuck and wouldn't go away. So when I eventually joined the internet at a once-questionable age(which started out fine because I was only using educational sites, but I still ended up on Discord just under the age requirement a couple of years later XDD)
At this time, "Lassie" for some reason morphed into "Lasspeep" and "Lassie Peep" - I think this was because of my parents, but I have no idea why XD So those variations were my usernames as I started to use the big scary internet. Eventually I did drop "peep", but Lassie has such a chokehold on me that I still use it, especially on Discord.
Fast forward to about a year or two ago, and I was looking for a name with more oomph behind it for my profiles on Tumblr, AO3 and FF.net. I had been going by Kit-Kat-of-Midgard, which I didn't really like, and so I started trying out a lot of things - username generators, random word lists, etc, but nothing was clicking. Then in a stroke of inspiration, I decided to go back to my roots, as it were. I used to use Google Docs as a kind of social media before I joined Discord, and to differentiate between the people in the group, we all picked colours and fonts to type in. Mine was cornflower blue, and that led me straight to the cornflower. While I was on that topic, I found its family name, Asteraceae, and that piqued my interest, but it still wasn't quite right. When I kept reading, I came across the order Asterales, which IMMEDIATELY made me go, "yep, that's the one."
So I had the base, and at some point I shortened it to simply Asteral. I really loved that, but I also wanted a second part, to get a message across that showed more of who I am. This one was a LOT easier, I have to say. I'm Irish, so I decided I'd go for an Irish word, and the struggle was just to figure out what word that would be.
SO I grew up being brainwashed into loving the band a-ha(I still love them), and it was a known fact that my favourite song of theirs is Butterfly, Butterfly. So my brain gremlins picked up my last remaining braincell, and translated "Butterfly" into Irish, which Google Translate(I don't speak Irish, sorry) told me was "féileacán". So, boom. Asteral Féileacán. Unfortunately, for the most part, the sites I'm on don't allow me to include the fadas, so it shows as Feileacan instead. Rest assured that the correct way is lurking somewhere behind there! But that's the admittedly long-winded explanation behind my usernames and why they're connected by a string.
💌 - How many unread emails do you have right now?
Oh. Oh no. I have several email accounts... in total, I have 337 unread emails spread out across four different emails, though they're mostly from automatic mailing lists from YouTube or AO3. My professional email account is paid much more attention, so it has no unread emails. >:) Rest assured that I will now be clearing out all my emails.
🪐 - Name three good things going on in your life right now.
Aw, this one is sweet <3
Theatre. I'm having a lot of fun engaging in theatre for the first time in my life through King Lear - I know I won't shut up about it, but I'm honestly really excited, and rehearsals are honestly the highlight two days of my week.
My writing spark. Writing has become fun again, and because of that, I've been able to post what I'm working on with less fear. This is huge for me because I stopped posted for years, and even though I was still working on things, I wasn't working on them in a capacity that was satisfying to me. I'm doing much better now, and a lot happier with what I'm doing.
Being connected outside of the internet. I have to say that this past year('23, so far '24) has been amazing. I got the chance to meet people IRL and make friends, I've been changing my very hermit-like habits and getting out more, and while it hasn't always been easy and I'm still struggling a lot with numerous things, I think I'm in a better place than I would have been two years ago. <3
