Not necessarily scary, just the same themes. Kind of hard to explain, just watch it and think horror.

Well, I disagree. Its got horror themes in it, watch it again.
Don't need to, I remember it well...my opinion just isn't the same as yours.

I also didn't feel that it was really part of the horror genre. Just my opinion.

Well, to each his own. I can see where you guys that disagree are coming from though, no worries.

Not horror.

Bingo. I'd call it drama more than anything. NOT horror.

I'd say it's a mixture. Mainly action but still partly horror. I love the Guido Fawkes mask.

I see it as a different superhero movie. Not a horror movie.

Posher778 02-19-2007 01:08 PM

Agreed with ferret, the mask is cool. It contributes to the horror feel of it. Of course I know it ISN'T and wasn't supposed to be a horror movie, just pointing out what I think.
