Awesome low budget FMV horror game!
Well, the game became not so awesome when the storyline went really stupid(okay, you may argue it was stupid from the start) but when it turned out Spoiler:it got really bad... Hm. Inspiration for Fahrenheit?

I really loved Phantasmagoria II!
The story was a bit of a let down but it was IMHO one of the best FMV adventures I played...

I enjoyed Phantasmagoria 1, even though it was somewhat weak and cheesy. It still packed some real scares, for an 15-year-old and his 12-year-old sister. Especially the ending when
Spoiler: Overall, average. For an early FMV game, not too bad. Plus has that great bathroom easter egg!! |

I think they both do well for early experiments in FMV gaming. They both have plots that are reasonable for builiding tension (though neither stand up well to close scrutiny) They are the B-move horrors of adventure gaming.
Played properly the final chapter of Phantasmagoria 1 is a real masterpiece of tension Spoiler: The second game (which the screenshot is from) suffers badly from the non-supernatural endeavours of the early part of the game (more so than the original I'd say) but the payoff, bizarre and unlikely as it is, is fairly well handled.

You played Phantasmagoria when you were 15 with your 12 year old sister?

That scene so reminds me a FMV remake of a GK1 scene.
