Certainly the title of the #1 story, "Night and Fog", doesn't reach out and grab me before dragging me into a dark alley and raising my consciousness in a manner not convenient to describe...
On the other hand, I've spent most of the morning compiling a list of influential survival horror games. While their titles don't have the limp wristed swooning aesthete vibe of some of the ones on your list, it seems to me that they're developing a few problems of their own...
Alone in the Dark Fatal Frame Resident Evil Splatterhouse FEAR: First Encounter Assault Recon Condemned: Criminal Origins Hungry Ghosts Parasite Eve
and, of course, the evocatively named "The Suffering: Ties that Bind".
Though I think I would award the Best Title Of All Time Prize to Nintendo's classic "Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem". You really know what you're getting with a title like that...
