When you sit down to watch Apple TV Plus's new horror movie The Gorge this Valentine’s Day, you may find that it feels a lot like a video game adaptation. That’s because director Scott Derrickson says his new genre-bending movie is partly inspired by some of the most exciting video games.
"I love those games, and I do think that gaming has sort of set the bar for gunplay action, especially if you're really with a single character or two characters, you kind of can't beat it," says Derrickson to GamesRadar+ when we asked him if the movie emulating the aesthetic of games like Until Dawn and Silent Hill was intentional.
