I sort of see what you mean, WBoon. Fair enough. 
I think the attractiveness of horror films is being afraid. I love the tension as you hold onto your popcorn and wait for something bad to happen- because you know something will happen, as it’s a horror film, but a good horror film means that you don’t know when it will happen.
And the best horror films are the ones that are so bad, they’re funny.
The ironic thing is, the classics have so many plot holes they would look bad to the ordinary fan. Of course, the true horror fan would know that it’s a classic, it was produced in the past, where people’s idea of a horror movie is some guy running around in a hockey mask chopping people up with a machete… I’ll stop.
“Earth vs The Spider” starring Dan Aykroyd was not too bad, too, if not a little uncreative.
I have seen a few of the Halloween movies. THat gave me nightmares for a while. I also saw some asian horror films on crunchyroll.com. They got some good videos over there.
In the past, I always found the Asian horror films to be much horrifying than the American ones, probably because they were full of those ‘jump-out-and-scare-you’ moments. There was a term for such an element mentioned by an even more avid horror fan, but obviously I have forgotten what it is… 
I agree with you WBoon. American horror movies now are more stupid funny than scary.
I’ve seen The Village and The Others. After that, I had no desire to delve deeper into the realms of scary movies. I respect the movies, I’m just a happy person and I enjoy things that make me laugh and feel all warm inside.
The interesting thing is that after I dwell into that world, I began to deter away from the comedies which I once loved…
Maybe this can be made as a research into the human mind.
The most recent horror movie I saw was Saw 2. After the first 20 minutes, I decided that it wasn’t worth my time.
Ho ho, you have no idea, TSS.
I will agree with you that Saw II started out a little slow in the beginning, but if you managed to catch the entire series… god, you’re in for a surprise. 
They got like 4 saw movies with the 5th one comming out soon. I always think, “Is this going overboard a bit?”
It’s never overboard with Saw. At first, I was rather bored by so many of its movies coming out, too… that was until Saw III came out.
Trust me when I tell you this - Saw is a masterpiece.
I don’t know. Most of my friends say it gets stupider and stupider each time.
Ah, people can say a lot of things.
My friends said that Disney was gay, but does that make Walt a homosexual? 
Kidding, but they did call the Disney movies that.
I guess you’re right. Saw 5 looks like it has potential to be a good one.
Saw V is going to be his best and his last. [spoil]I was not really satisfied when they replaced Kramer with Hoffman, but eh, might grab my throat with another twist again, who knows.[/spoil]
I second the nightmares. But not from Halloween. When I was young I saw Pet Cemetery. Talk about nightmares… wow. This one had me freaked for about a month.
Yeah, it’s always scary when you watch these things the first few times. I had my share of troubled sleep, too when I first started this fandom. 
When i look a horror movies i do kinda my shoz off like this is not scary and all but when it comes to sleeping, gee i’m getting freaked out just by saying it to you . 
As for Saw my brother told me that there was a great story behind it …
But i never got time to watch them and now it’s sorta too late… 
Not really. you could still watch the entire film series on watch-movies.net… if you dare.
Make your choice, live or die.
