hard lol (side note: worst dream i ever had was about having a cordyceps fungus growing high out of the palm of my hand, and knowing exactly how that was going to end)

I don't know why no one has done a horror movie like this

Never seen the movie, but I read the book and it's terrific.

And it never gets referenced in "Last of Us" media coverage, which I find weird. (FWIW I thought the movie was fine, but the book was phenomenal.)

I am informed by my sources that the HBO show The Last of Us is about exactly this, and that maybe I would know that if I were not too much of a scaredy-cat to watch it
