  Anything that counts as a "motion picture" counts as cinema, and this is game sucked. 'Nuff said.

  This is the best thing I've ever seen. I used to love Night Trap when I was little. I remember thinking I was being so edgy and brave for playing it. Looking back on it now I think it's ridiculous, and watching this video was such an experience. Thanks so much dude!

  I would not mind you doing MORE FMV games. But, then I think Spoony would kill you for treading on his territory XD

  Yeah I remember how much of a deal congress made about this. Since I didn't have access to a Sega CD, 32X or 3D0 I couldn't see for myself though I never really bought into the scary hype. Then I saw videos of the game and kind of wanted to smack those nitwits. Both the game makers and the congressmen.

  This review made me nostalgia hard. It also made me wish people would try to recreate the awkward cheesiness in this game within some format, game or movie. I think it definitely had some charm.
  
  This was a really good idea for a review by the way.

  Well, at any rate, there were 3 pretty freakin' hot chicks in this. And, yes, I'm counting Dana as one of them. She still looked really good here.

  You forgot to mention that even Captain Kangaroo warned kids about this game on his show once , Snob
  
  And yes , the congress made a big hoot out of a stupid and cheesy FMV game that looks so tame compare to other violent games like DOOM and Mortal Kombat.

  Nice video. Although I expected the "happy ending" to be the one where you trigger the corridor trap one more time. ^^

  "the scary hype"
  
  Nothing much has changed you still have idiotic congress people complelty misunderstanding the point of the games and using false easily disproven nonsense to paint the games as being the cause of violence.
  
  Nighttrap they claimed you the player were killing the girls when the objective was to save them. Clocktower you had an idiotic congressman saying you the player were the scissorman and you were to kill these little girls. You were in fact the little girl and had to defeat the scissorman.
  
  Honestly how the hell do you fuck up the objectives to a game when they are described on the back of the game box?

  You think Night Trap got a bad rap by politicians because people died? You should have been there during the Phantasy Star 2 hearings.
  
  Yes....I used Phantasy Star 2 as the RPG love interest death example. Screw you FF7.

  Wow, awesome to see you make a review of this. I own a Sega CD, but shamefully not Night Trap. This peek into pure cheese makes me wanna get my hands on a copy of the game.

  Oh come on! The ending to Heathers is nowhere near as cheerful as the ending to "Mean Girls". Still, interesting that you chose an infamously cheesy FMV game, Brad

  I always wanted to play this game, for the sole reason that I thought Dana Plato looked hot running around in a sports bra.
  
  But seriously, why the fuck DO you own Night Trap?

  You're reviewing that murder simulator? That game in which the goal is to murder young women? I've never played the game, but that's what my Congress told me!

  God, I remember the huge brouhaha this game stirred up. I was a little kid at the time, had no interest in politics, yet I watched all the "hearings" that Joe Lieberman held on violent video games on CSPAN. And even then, as a naive little kid, I realized that these crotchety old men had no idea what the were talking about.
  
  Years later, when I was old enough to vote, and Joe Lieberman became the VP candidate, I wanted to hold all of that against him, but... well, y'know...

  Oh gawd, I remember this game, & the Taco-Man spoof of it. & now Bigfish Games is trying to bring back Full Motion Video by incorporated it into Hidden Object Games.
  
  Ooh, do "Plumbers Don't Wear Ties," that one had a real uh...something movie to it.

  One of the other endings is similar to the "happy ending" where Dana Plato skips off to safety. But instrad,you have the option to the sliding door trap on Dana,and send her to the freezer like the other chick and a would be Megan.
  
  I love how SCAT could have intervened to save them, but does nothing until the most pointless time.

  I thought the reference to "Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter" was really funny. I also thought the reference to "Home Alone" was funny.
  
  It's strange that ANYONE found this violent. I'm willing to bet they didn't even play the game or watch anyone else play it, for that matter.

  I picked the actual game up in a Goodwill for super cheap. It was removed from its original packaging and stuffed into a double-wide CD case (it was 2 discs). I wound up playing 30 seconds of it before retiring it. What a waste. Now my Sega CD is on the fritz so I can’t play it at all.
