What's u dont like of horror movies? (please read) Akibara: i know horror movies are like the best damn thing every but like everyone out there theres a part that u dont like. For instant i dont like that black is always one of the 1st to die. izzy!: i agree. D:< like in The Shining. the chef dude who had NOTHING to do with anything got whacked first. effing racists. SatanStonedRosetta: The dude from the shining had the shining also... he came up there to help the family.. Considering there was only 4 people at the mansion at the time.. The killer, the son, the wife and the black dude.. it didn't leave many other people left to die first. It was to show his effort in getting there through the blizzard was futile. SatanStonedRosetta: It gets to me also, but mainly due to the fact that almost all horrors follow the same pattern. Hot chick, black guy, stoner, sporty dude, other hot chick...... usually a close variation of that order. It would be nice to see a black dude survive... sissybaby1973: Its not a typical 'horror movie' but in the movie "Deep Blue Sea" where mutant sharks escape and kill everyone one of the two survivors is a black man played by LL Cool J. Just thought you might like to know Akibara: well when it comes to horror movies there is some exception when it comes to the death or survival of a black guy. but it also ticks me off that in the 1st group of dead a latin is involve. I mean come on im latin and black so it really piss me off that the black and/or latins are the 1st wave to die in a horror movie SatanStonedRosetta: I always saw the Saw (haha) movies as more thriller but they are horror in a sense. It was great to see how there are next to no survivors in those movies. No gender or creed is left out of a violent death. MaThinker (M.T.): What irritates me about horror movies or suspense movies is that the heroine is alway soooooooo stupid and careless, and i get sick of worrying for her, and think aloud, "If she is soooooo ridiculously stupid, maybe she deserves to die !" hahaha ! I have little patience for fools. Then again, if there was intelligent prudent action, there may bave been no danger, and therefore no horror story ? whereami2: I wish someone would make a horror flick that wasn't so predictable. With in the first ten to twenty minutes you can pretty much know hows going to survive the show. I wish they would mix it up once and have it unpredictable, but don't get me wrong, i still love a good horror flick. METAL_FREAK100000: I agree, I'm so sick of the last chick standing, (cause lets face it its always a woman) Acting so stupid you just wish she'd f**king die. I've said this before but I have to again, Why, (when she finally gets a hit in) does she just hit the killer/phyco/monster, once and then run away to be either killed or further beaten? Why doesnt she just stay there why hes down, and beat the living sh*t outta him?! abstrectchrist: now to be fair here, using a movie like The Shining as an example is a bad use of example cause it's Stanley Kubrick, he wasn't a racist and that's one thing that he exploited from in the novel itself for a more psychological approach I mean like c'mon, you have Jack, the creepy son, and the simple mother there only, you don't want to kill off the mother and kid, so you kill off the recent visitor who only see's it all from the sons point of view, who just happens to be a black guy with the same Shining ability. If you want to pull an example out make it... a friday the 13th movie.(Granted that's more slasher than actual horror) on topic of the thread: gore in unnecesary amounts, unless it's a pedestal for psychological build up like Inside has, hypergore or gore in general that's just explicit and out of nowhere isn't shocking, it's just sad and immature. unnecesary mystery or mystery gone array(in otherwords bad technique of building mystery) I'm reciting The Strangers here, why try to make a "horror" movie horror when the canvas was empty to begin with? | Movies Chat Room Similar Conversations |
