See...if you'd just said "horror game" or "horror themed game", I could've helped out with suggestions, as could many of the gamers on this forum....as for movie based, well, the options are rather slimmer. There's some VERY scary games out there, and not many at all are based on movie franchises.

*The upcoming Land of the Dead game looks pretty decent, but personally, I'm looking out for the "other" game that romero's supposedly more heavily involved with...I don't have the name right now, but I'm sure it will become apparent closer to the games release date....
*From dusk til dawn, the third person action/shooter "sequel to the movie" kinda game was alright, fairly decent action, not too bad a storyline, simple to play...my copy was a little glitchy, but then again, it WAS pirated after all. Not THAT great, but better than a few movie tie-ins I've seen.
*The thing, I thought was a great game...true, I got pissed off with it at a point and uninstalled it, but, if you're looking for "well made" horror movie based games, this one was it. Very atmospheric, made you super paranoid in some parts, good use of music. Nice visuals and cutscenes, the storyline was like an extension on the first film, taking place ?during? and after the movie.
*Evil dead: fistfull of boomstick was quite fun, good combat system, chunky action. Forget "hail to the king", it was total shit by comparison, it was like a chore to play.
I haven't played the third one ?RESSURECTION? yet, but it looks good, quite like fistfull of boomstick did.


I know there's more, but those come to mind.
Like I said, you'd be better off looking for a horror/horror based game, your selection would be much greater.
