We’re changing gears slightly again this week as we focus not on a movie – but a video game. This is the last video game to bear Clive Barker’s name and although there was a planned sequel nothing has come of it meaning that Barker’s fans who want more video games from him will have to make do with Clive Barker’s Undying from 2002 and Jericho from 2007. Clive Barker’s Jericho tells the story of a black ops squad called Jericho consisting of a variety of sorcerous and psychic commandos and their battle to keep the demonic Firstborn from bursting through inter-dimensional gates into our world.
Sounds epic doesn’t it? Well it is epic! You get to play a variety of these black ops agents in what is best described as Gears of War meets Silent Hill on acid. It’s an endless assault from beginning to end and is powered by a great mythology laid out by Barker.
Watch the game after the leap!

So this week we’re going to feature part of a Jericho walk-through. In case you’re unfamiliar with walk-throughs it’s when a gamer records their gameplay through a game and shows you how to play it. This allows us to see the visuals and storyline as it unfolds during the course of gameplay.
So enough talk – let’s watch some Clive Barker carnage unfold. It’s Clive Barker’s Jericho on Scary Movie Saturday!!!
