Mine is the original Resident Evil. I hate zombie fiction, so let's steer away from that. Resi Evil offers way more than zombies anyway. I really enjoy stories that feature biological creatures and stories that take themselves seriously (I know Resi is infamous for it's silly voice acting), to me it's about the broad strokes.

Books I've already read that capture what I'm looking for:
Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton
Relic by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Childe
Watchers by Dean Koontz
White Shark by Peter Benchley

hell, even the Southern Reach trilogy scratches some of that (government lead investigation into a supernatural event).

Please no shitty book series that have a million volumes, I prefer one and done novels by authors who take this seriously.

Ramsay Campbell is probably right up your alley. Midnight Sun and The Hungry Moon might scratch this itch. Also Algernon Blackwoods "The Willows".

Interested in this, too.

Definitely check out Harlan Ellison's "A Boy and his Dog" (I like the movie, too). Swan Song by McCammon is pretty good too. Also "Malevil" by Robert Merle

Besides actual gothic and weird horror (like Frankenstein and Dracula and Cthulhu), I'm not really sure what to suggest. I say dig up some of those delray cthulhu mythos anthologies.

I say "The Night Land" by William Hope Hodgson. Enjoy a wonderfully imaginative dark fantasy world hidden behind walls of impenetrable text

Not that guy, but you're the one that has to prove he's worthy, not us. I haven't even played any of the DS games beyond the first one (and Demon Souls back on the PS3).
