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’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.
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.
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.
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…
