Death Race is a vehicular combat game that puts your car in an open space with gremlins. Your goal is to crash into the gremlins so you can brutally and cruelly kill them. Upon dying, they scream. In the spot where the gremlin once was, a cross-shaped gravestone will be left. This clutters the playing field, making it harder to move around. There are dotted lines on the sides, representing two narrow "safe" zones on the left and right sides of the screen for the gremlins, as your car will crash on contact with the dotted lines.

Before Silent Hill became a horror film, it was a survival horror video game — but what's even more horrifying still is that Silent Hill, West Virginia is based on a real place. The game utilizes a foggy atmosphere to inhibit the player’s vision while they control Harry Mason on the search for his missing adopted daughter. Its unforgettable landscape and horrific features spawned an entire franchise of films and video game sequels. While the horror video game is well-known, its true story and the actual location are rarely recognized. There's a real town — the town of Centralia, known online as "The Real Silent Hill", Pennsylvania — which inspired Silent Hill's aesthetic.

This cabinet can be seen in the movie Jaws on the beach. It's called Killer Shark from gaming greats, Sega. It was released way back in 1972. The shark moves around and the player shoots it with a spear gun. It has a series of slides on a wheel that make the shark move and thrash around when shot. Electronic sound and 8-track player. It resembles the Same Sea Devil also by Sega, but Sea Devil had a manta ray instead of a shark.
