Line 13:
** You forgot the [[Womb Level]] in the first game where the only enemies are horrid fetuses that first fly off in a sort of bubble, then jump on you and ''drain your life away''. And the boss is a pillar of meat with the bulging heart of the house that sends off millions of these "babies". (This troper loves the game for all the horror in it.)
** The heart is actually a uterus. It's more apparent in the arcade version, where its water breaks when it's destroyed.
** All of the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rfa8zQgusCY bad ending] s totally scare the hell out of me. Hell, even the good ending does!
* The arcade game employed some trick with its sound to make the effects of the carnage seem to be beamed directly into your inner ear. It cost 25 cents to play, plus $500 in therapy bills.
* The third game is made all the scarier with pictures of the characters that are low-res, yet photorealistic. Didn't save Jennifer in time? Good luck sleeping tonight, [[Precision F-Strike|motherfucker]]!
Line 28:
* Crossing over into [[Tear Jerker]], we have the moment in the first game when Jennifer is turned into a monster. There are horrifying implications before and during the ensuing boss fight. First of all, you saw the monsters surrounding Jennifer just before she transforms, which may have just been the end of whatever arcane ritual was required to transform her. [[A Fate Worse Than Death|Or it may have been]] [[Mind Screw|something else]]. Then as you fight her, she seems to ''painfully'' [[Transformation Trauma|switch back and forth between her human and monster forms]].
* The gigantic Cthulhu-like monster in the tank near the end of part 6. Said beastie will growl at you and try to reach Rick by hitting the walls of the Tank.
** OH GOD, this thing. What really makes it creepy is its status as a [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]], as there is absolutely zero findable knowledge on what it is and what its doing down there, and West himself says nothing about it when Rick finds him for the stage's boss fight. Scariest thing in the entire franchise, indeed. o.o
* The Clown Corrupted. Just the [[Monster Clown|freaky, fire-spitting Clown Corrupted]].
