I'm a barber. I used to have a client who wore that mustache and I was the one who had to shave it into existence every three weeks or so. He was a great client, who tipped well... but I absolutely hated being forced to create that thing; it was just nasty looking, and had a *Pedo Factor of about 9.5.* He was the only client I ever had who I secretly wished wouldn't tell everyone who his barber was.

These zombies scare the crap out of me but I love the creativity

[@luciaszocsova496]

Never in Dayd Gone have I been more scared than when fracking zombie bear rushed at me...

[@bryonyperecat5954]

That was horrible the first time I saw one.

[@Icam_here]

watching that bit when the red stalkers chasing Jill i cant help but imagine the benny hill theme playing over the top of that

[@johnquill3953]

It took me so many tries to get through that part in dead space 2. I ended up using the gravity gloves to move furniture and block off those pathways to the left and right so that they had to come at me straight on.

"Gruesome flesh-katamari" The writing in these videos is always amazing.

[@moosemaimer]

What makes the Jockey for me is the mod that replaces its sounds with Beavis quotes.

[@tymiller9714]

It is amazing that 20+ years later and yes Res 1 and Zero still hold up graphically

[@happybob1441]

Older game but damn the Mainliners from The Suffering. The noise they made combined with the glowing syringes for eyes still occasionally haunts my nightmares.

[@zipster6393]

Idk if this counts, but pagan cross from the forest can really give some "NOPE NOT PLAYING THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE" feelings.

[@theanarchist5598]

How about Lich from Arx Fatalis? Those guys are really true to their name having large amount of health, horrifying in a good sense design, and having a great magical abilities able to turn invisible, summon zombies, paralyze you, and simply laughing scary. Also at some point the game throws two of those bad boys at you.

Pale Heads, Crimson Heads, but for me the most unsettling zombie like creature in Resident Evil are the Lickers. While most undead enemies are on the ground looking terrifying, the Lickers can scurry around on the ceiling, jumping from shadow to shadow just looking for the right angle to grab you with it's icky long tongue

Lol, "To Event your Horizon" Nice

[@uncleslam9022]

I don't remember much from when my brother and I played halo.... but you never forget the flood. I had nightmares at the time.

[@evelienwolberink9772]

Those really fast zombies in rdr undead nightmare used to scare me pretty good when i was younger!!

[@michaelandreipalon359]

I just finished Zevik's playthroughs of the Dead Space duology... for this!

[@muffinman2546]

Can't believe Isaac went through all of that just for a red white board maker. Absolute madman.

[@Deviant_Entity]

When I first played Halo 3 (the first one I ended up playing because my cousin introduced me to it) when I was around 11 or 12, encountering the flood actually was something that made me want to stop playing. Not at first: they aren’t so bad in the light and with a friend, but when I tried it in the solo campaign, I was scared enough by the time you had to jump into the massive pit that I couldn’t go on (after jumping in and having massive swarms of zombie-like aliens run at the speed of sound in a series of dimly-lit, blood-colored corridors with the texture of flesh).

[@ijustworkhere1008]

The child enemies in Dead space 2 always scared me more than the stalkers. With the disturbingly authentic screams they make when you kill them, or the fact that the exploding ones often make crying baby noises

[@Kiss_My_Aspergers]

7:13 I will never get over that line, that music, that trailer. Fucking. Flawless.

[@miss-petrolea]

While the Screamer in Days Gone is a massive pain, I found them quite easily dealt with through stealth (my favourite was the crossbow, which is a one hit kill). However the Reachers, which appear quite late in the game, were the one that I truly feared. They are faster, stronger and more resilient than other humanoid freakers, clever enough to stalk you and extremely tenacious. They will chase you down and drag you off your bike, if they spot you.

[@tylermcweeny2256]

The stalkers in titanfall 2 effect and cause present are basically robotic walking dead zombies and crawlers. You don't know which will turn on but with a tool called the L-star you can make quick work of them.

[@darkhearted1010]

If they ever did another video like this I'd love to see their reaction to the current Screamer and Spider zombies in 7 Days to Die.

[@dudeguy8686]

Day's Gone had some good moments.. Even that original Resident Evil, with the first zombie reveal cutscene.. That one taunted you if you waited in the dining room too long

[@christianquinones8675]

Stalkers in dead space 3 (the one i have) are scary yes, but less then the Twitchers. also as a suggestion for a later vid like this, Shamblers from Wolfenstein: old blood. they are slow at first, but can randomly start moving fast. their attacks make your screen go of to the side, and they are also ammo sponges to anything other then shotgun shells.

[@illise]

I'm replaying resident evil 6 and the screamers in Leon's section are freaking scary and while they don't do much damage they also attract other zombies and makes them faster and angrier
