Re: Survival Horror + Dark Comedy RP's?
There's an increasing number of films that take this kind of approach...Shaun of the Dead was already mentioned, Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness, and even, to some degree, The Cabin in the Woods all have this kind of blurred-line overtone. No reason a game couldn't do it...but, as also mentioned, it's something that would need the right chemistry of GM and players to really work well. It would still be workable with some not-quite-right elements, in those aspects, as long as they weren't too far off...but finding the right people to run and play is pretty much the secret to the success of ANY game on here, regardless of genre (or hybridization thereof).
