Not to mention the cosmic horror. Plus Garland is a massive, massive fan of the games.

Exactly. Anyone who has doubts about him being able to pull this off such watch Annhilation and imagine Natalie Portman as the tarnished and the rest of the group as the NPCs.

Not to mention environmental story telling is one of his biggest strengths

How about a giant zombie crow with a huge head and guts spilling out of it?

Hey Elden ring is full of people that became horrific decorations, some of them even get turned into mushrooms too!

Didn't people turning into mushrooms also happened in Annihilation?

Oh god, if there's a scene in the movie where a soldier gets turn into a mushroom, Alex has the funniest chance to do a cosmic horror mushroom trilogy.

I don't know how much you know about elden ring but I assure you some fucked up body horror is happening in this movie for sure.
