But it certainly would be good for ratings. Unfortunately a large percentage of people like to get caught up in sensationalist bandwagons. If they had gone on the show and discussed these films by saying that they weren't very well made, were formulaic, did little to advance the horror genre, and were bereft of much depth; who would be interested in watching?

However get on and create a sense of outrage about how they are corrupting the very fabric of society and how they are so unwatchable in their vile portrayal of gore and violence - there are many people who love to get on that bandwagon. Everyone wants to Think Of The Children!

I guess you're right, but I expected more out of those two. I guess that was pretty naive of me.

Being in Australia I don't really know much about them. I have heard Ebert's name before but haven't seen any of their reviews. So I really didn't know what to expect.

Maybe I have called it wrong - it was just the impression that I got from that one episode.

BTW thanks for posting it, Wicker.

It is great to be able to have a conversation about horror movies on this board for a change :D

No problem, and I know what you mean.:D
