Slitterhead review - singular and unapologetically strange
Strange but singular, Slitterhead can be a slow-burn to begin with, but once its combat clicks, this is an action horror game like few others.
All can be mentally seized by you and forced to do your bidding, their very blood fashioned into weapons - clubs, poles, claws, blades, shotguns; you name it - as you track down the bizarre monsters they call Slitterheads. As it stands, there's not much incentive for stepping off the beaten path here, and Slitterhead always felt more alive for me when I could put my sleuthing hat on as opposed to splattering enemies with blood bullets. It's campy and schlocky and violent and gross, and I can confirm that yes, its content warnings of "scenes of sexual acts, nudity, violence, murder, suicide, depictions of blood, criminal activity, and the consumption of alcohol and cigarettes" are all there in spades, so it's probably not one to play in front of your kids.
