In this case, the severely under-dressed schoolgirls are trapped on a mountain that's haunted because some crazy motherfuckers were packing young women in gift boxes out of devotion to the FedEx branch of Shintoism. In any case, Fatal Frame games always have the exact same plot: One or more schoolgirls with skirts so short you can practically see their labial folds peeking out the bottom like the questing feelers of a tunneling spider is trapped in a dilapidated area that's really haunted because some kind of death-torture ritual was conducted in the past there by someone with really liberal interpretations of Japanese Shintoism, and there are pretty good odds that one or more characters will turn out to be the reincarnations of somebody or other. What, are we taking pictures of ghosts for our school project, which is the prequel to the first school project we made? Or maybe I'm pronouncing it wrong, and it's Pro- ject Zero, as in a game about characters from Metal Gear Solid 3 being forcefully thrown out of a nightclub. It is not a game about whatever the fuck Project Zero means. It's a game about death and photography- ' Fatal Frame'.

Not only is Fatal Frame snappier, no pun intended, but it actually means something.

The series is called Fatal Frame in the US, which is one of the few cases of an American localization change I wholeheartedly support. If you're not familiar with this franchise, it's kind of like Ringu by way of Pokémon Snap: you take candid paparazzi photographs of Japanese ghosts so all their ghost cellulite gets put on display in Ghost Cosmopolitan and they die of shame. Yes, it's almost Christmas, and there's just time to get caught up with something I missed before the end-of-year roundup: Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water on the Wii U. The stockings have gone up, and the owner of the stockings has been paid $20 and left my motel room. This week, Zero Punctuation reviews Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.
