Horror Icons Do the “Thriller” Dance in Fan’s Hilarious ‘Dead by Daylight’ Video
Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” has been given new life this Halloween season thanks to, of all things, Eli Roth’s The House With a Clock in Its Walls. At domestic IMAX theaters through this week, a digitally remastered version of the iconic music video is playing before Roth’s latest film, in IMAX 3D for the very first time. You don’t want to miss that, that’s for sure.
On a somewhat related note, we just stumbled across a fun “Thriller”-related video that we just had to share. Video game live-streamer “The Cult of Snax Noodle,” who can be found on YouTube and Twitter, has made his own version of “Thriller” using the slasher game Dead by Daylight, wherein icons like Freddy, Michael Myers and Leatherface do the iconic dance!
They’re joined by a couple of Dead by Daylight‘s original slashers…

LKA Delves Deeper Into the Horror of ‘When Sirens Fall Silent’ in New Presentation [Video]
During the Day of the Devs: Summer Game Fest Edition, publisher Wired Productions and developer LKA released a three-minute developer presentation for psychological horror game When Sirens Fall Silent, offering players a deeper look into the mystery, characters, and unsettling world of the upcoming psychological thriller.
Following two creative story-based cinematic reveals (which you can watch here and here) that introduced the game’s atmosphere, themes, and central mystery, LKA Founder and Director Luca Dalcò guides viewers further into the world of the forgotten people, revealing more of what awaits players as they uncover the truth behind a series of kidnappings and murders.
From the creators of Martha is Dead, When Sirens Fall Silent casts players as Mila, a policewoman in early 1990s Rome, Italy. Haunted by a past she’s desperate to escape, Mila is thrust into a high-profile case of kidnappings and murders. As the investigation unravels, you must not only save her from herself, but also from being consumed by the violence, mystery and confusion.
Featuring a branching, multi-layered narrative dialogue system, with a huge focus on verbal and emotional interaction, investigation and subsequent choices, players will be faced with difficult real-world topics. LKA aims to “pull no punches” with its story, but also hints at a few surprises along the way.
When Sirens Fall Silent is currently in development for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.
