Do you know what the cinema world lacks? More horror video game adaptations that focus more on the horror & dread aspects. Say what you will about Silent Hill nowadays, but at least its movie adaptations are arguably well-produced and evoke that sense of dread from a standard script and plot outline. Such is the case of the latest Indonesian m...
