In other words: it's a perfectly Halloween-y subject to tackle during October!
In all honesty, I've never actually played a Splatterhouse game... but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate some of its music, and that's what brings us to "Bellyache Battle 02."
The breakdown starting at :28 is my favorite part. Already acting as a fitting climax for the brutality and horrors on display, it somehow manages to outdo itself at :38, where things are taken to an even more dramatic and desperate level.
This song, in all of its Halloween glory, is practically begging for a remake with a cheesy/horror pipe organ for the main instrument.
While it's unlikely that I'll ever explore the Splatterhouse franchise further, I'm more than satisfied with simply enjoying this awesome song.
