They Turned EXIT 8 Into A Nightmare And We Can't Stop Talking About It

They turned The Exit 8 video game into a full-length horror film — and it might be the best video game movie adaptation we've ever seen. EXIT 8 (2025) is a Japanese psychological horror film directed by Genki Kawamura, who co-wrote the screenplay with Kentaro Hirase, based on the 2023 indie horror game The Exit 8 developed by Kotake Create. In this review, Dylan & Luke break down everything that works (and doesn't) about EXIT 8 — from its suffocating liminal space atmosphere to how it translates the game's anomaly-hunting gameplay into a genuine cinematic nightmare. Is this the video game movie that finally cracks the code? We have thoughts. #exit8 #exit8movie #horrormovie #japanesehorrormovie #videogamemovie #splattercast #exit8review #psychologicalhorror #liminalspace #genkikawamura #kotakecreate #theexit8 #horrormovies2025 #disturbingmovies #moviereview UNLOCK MORE TERROR BY JOINING OUR PATREON   / splattercast   JOIN THE SPLATTCAST DISCORD!   / discord   Follow Us On INSTAGRAM:   / splattercastpod   FACEBOOK:   / 1g9pge1bkf   LETTERBOXED: https://boxd.it/hrDC7 X: https://x.com/splattercastpod BLUESKY: https://bsky.app/profile/splattercast...
