The only time nudity in horror films ever bothers me is when it gets in the way. That brief nude scene at the end of The Stepfather was kina stupid, especially since they just gave away that that actress wasn't actually sixteen. Aside from stuff like that, the more naked the better I say. Gratuitous nudity made sitting through Cabin Fever and House Of The Dead a whole lot less painful. :p

Anywho, I think the less seen the more the imagination runs wild. Altho there are exceptions. And how come we haven't seen Eliza Dushku naked yet? I'm curious.
Yeah, that's very disappointing. There's good fakes of her out there, but it's not the same thing.

While i can appreciate some nudity in a movie, for the most part, I dont really see the need. In some cases (Like the shining), it does help. In the Shining, that woman was SCARY.

In Slashers, the one breif moment of nudity was the scariest part of the whole movie. The girl in question was saggy, and one breast was noticeably larger than the other...

I'm convinced that nudity is all about demographics, though. Who are most horror fans? Males, 16-28. Tits sell tickets.

On the same note though, nudity can be some horror movie's one saving grace....

House of the Dead for example...LMAO

I mean you watch a shitty horror movie....HORRIBLE one...but in the end you can at least say that the nude chick was nice...lol..

My favorite thing about nudity in horror movies:

When watchingone with my fiance, she usually "educates" me on how and why said nudity is happening. this often involves her removing articles of clothing, and her angrily fondling herself.

It is truly a sight to behold. She is usually a minute or two into it before she realises that i am not listening, merely staring at her naughty bits and trying not to drool too much.

Naked people in horror movies are great. I'm married, so I rarely get a chance to see another naked girl unless I'm watching it in a horror movie. Pointless nudity is good, too ... because, for me, it has a point. It's like the director is saying: "Hey Stingy, I'm glad you're liking this movie I made. Just for you, here's a naked person you haven't seen before." It makes me feel all warm and special. Like someone is giving me an unexpected present.

Thankfully, my wife doesn't angrily fondle herself while I am in the middle of watching a movie. Vod, you'll know the feeling after you've been married for five years.
