Super fun!

While quite scary at first, it doesn't stay too mean with jumpscares, opting for a healthy balance of eerie atmospheres and encounters.

While I haven't played the games, only watched playthroughs, and you really don't need any knowledge of them to enjoy this.

A very funny thing I quickly noticed is that this feels like someone playing one of the games for the first time: responding with a lot of confused swearing at strange new weird scenarios and fumbling around in horror. This greatly enhanced the viewing experience, as the film really doesn't take itself too seriously and prioritizes maximum fun and horror over story.

I wouldn't be surprised if it later came out that the script was written after the director recorded himself playing the game.

The snow scenes at the beginning looked amazing, and the splattering zombies scene are a standout.
