All a gun does is focus an explosion in one direction.
Good luck with shooting your momma in the face, Barb - be sure to use a dum-dum bullet and open the back of her head right up.
I agree with laughing at the spectacle of death if you feel like it. Many people, and particularly many horror movie fans I've noticed, have a rather unhealthily uptight stance on the subject - as if by watching so many fantasy (and possibly real, all you mondo fans) deaths on screen makes them understand how terrible it all is more than the uninformed masses who just walk around oblivious, watching Home Alone and the like.
I've been through that stage myself, and I used to hate it when someone would giggle through an "important" death scene.
Guess we're all getting older!
