Including any movies, video games, books, anime, etc. What’s your favorite cyberpunk horror?

I’m thinking maybe movies like Hardware or video games like Observer, BloodNet, or maybe System Shock. I should admit I haven’t seen any of the weird body horror japanese cyberpunk like Tetsuo: The Iron Man though.

What else? Is Videodrome considered cyberpunk?

    Yeah, Signalis has that fixed camera that reminds me of old Resident Evil games but i wasn’t sure if it actually goes horror. I haven’t played it either.

    And I’ve never heard of Free Radical, thanks!

      Signalis seems to be emphasizing the survival horror aspect in their descriptions, but the looks and content are rad, and very cyberpunk I think. It references Lovecraft a few times, so it seems more like they’re aiming for a kinda existential horror? I haven’t seen all of it and the playthrough I saw unfortunately skipped a lot of the lore stuff I would have dug into.

      Free Radical is fun - I think it’s very much worth reading, especially for the later stuff around the AI

      It’s definitely full horror, inspired by silent hill and resident evil would be an understatement, and I LOVE it
