Any movie with Terry O'Quinn in it.:p ........only kidding SFF...don't go off on me.

Weak plot

I'll agree with the bad CGI , but if its done right [LOTR ] it can be very nice.

Pretty much any movie with a number after the title. i.e. part 2, part 3, part 10 whatever.

Same for remakes ,but I have to say I did enjoy the new TCM

No nudity. We need more boobs.

hmm april fools is over...gotta change my avatar

LOL Well, you're a heterosexual guy, so that is expected.

Oh, and we need more naked men in horror movies. I'm sick to death of looking at nude women. They really need to think about the female audiance sometimes. Hey!! I need to start making some movies of my own!!!!! LOL

You must like 28 days later then. Dear god, it was almost too much. Almost a full minute of a pale, unshaven naked englishman. Full frontal.


Actually, some to think of it, Darth Bane probably likes that one too.

Well, not just any old naked guy will do. He has to be hot, ya know. I have not seen 28 Days later, judging from what you have just described, I think it is fair to say that I will pass on that one. LOL

Anyhow, I hate any and ALL CGI. That is why I rarely watch new movies.

It wasnt meant to sound sexist. Any horror movie where The character isnt scared when the monster is coming after them. Not only not scared but developes a MY shit dont stink attitude. Some of you may ask what about Ash? Well i think Ash was terrified. So terrified that he went insane. Its from his sanity that he was able to come up with all those witty comments we know and love. Kristy Cotton is a good example of a female character who though scared still basically told pinhead to shut the fuck up. It still seems real in these instances. I guess thats what I was trying to say the first time around. The bad ass attitude that betrays and goes beyond any sane persons ability to cope in a horrifying situation is too fake. The Bitch in Freddy Vs Jason is just the incident that gets to me the most. Sorry for any misunderstanding:)

Bad CGI will instantly ruin a horror movie, when used right - like in house on haunted hill - in can be very effective, but more often than not it just looks like arse (who can forgive the caterpillar in FvJ?).

And I also agree with MarylandPsycho, few things are more irritating than the girl who can deal with anything, Freddy vs Jason would have been a whole lot better if that girl had died - horribly.

Rappers or any other musicans in a horror movie

OK, I see what you mean now. Yes, the girl from Freddy VS Jason was irritating, to say the least. I thought Ashley Laurence from Hellraiser gave a good female against monsters performance.

The tired old stereotypes used to "teach" morals to kids. All the "smoke a joint/have sex, or shower scenes/ drink = Death, or atleast being killed of quicker. For yet another rehash of these same, tired ideas, see the new TCM with the invincible virgin surviving, and OWNING:rolleyes: , leatherface with all here moral purity and innocense:rolleyes:
