The list of classic horror movies that I’ve seen in my life thus far is embarrassingly short. I’ve only recently watched Child’s Play, The Nightmare on Elm Street, The Shining, and most importantly, IT.

Sony has reigned supreme for the majority of this generation of consoles. They’ve delivered a high amount of exclusive content that has helped push the sales of the PlayStation 4 to over 60 million units worldwide.
