I actually never played the original....never even heard of it actually. But the first couple of screens looked pretty cool. It's on my watchlist....

Namco Bandai officially announced the next installment in the classic Splatterhouse franchise for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. This title, inspired by the 1988 arcade game of the same name, promises to combine horror with intense combat to deliver a game that "defies the boundaries of the traditional action category." The game is slated to release in 2009.
Along with the game announcement, Namco Bandai have supplied the world with a bit of the plot to Splatterhouse. The game follows Rick Taylor in his efforts to rescue his girlfriend, Jennifer, after she has disappeared in a mysterious mansion. That's when things go bad. Rick finds a mask that promises to give him the power to save his girlfriend and is "transformed into a juggernaut of pure violence and destruction." The story was created by comic book writer Gordon Rennie (Necronauts, Judge Dredd).
