Horror movie themes that make me mad
 

Number one on my list, Jason. How hard can it be to get him to walk into a cement pool and when he's flailing around in it just poor more on top of him and let it dry and drop that in the middle of the ocean, problem solved. Same with Jeepers Creepers/Michael Meyers and Chucky. WTF, how hard can that be? It just gets me so irratated. What are your opinions?

Personal beliefs or judgments that are not founded on proof or certainty.

I love this thread. First off, I had to say that.

Second, your idea about how to stop all supernatural monster maniacs is great. It would work. We should do it.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but if you are... Come on... I'm talking about if this situation was real and these monsters did exist, you're telling me we wouldn't do something that simple to stop them, except just poke at them with scissors and combs? :rolleyes:

OK - I'll bite. There are three things that always piss me off (besides the usual crappy acting, bad effects, etc.)

1) Sudden unexplained inconsistencies- e.g., Freddy can be killed if we 'dont' believe in him' (or use our special dream powers, or bury him or whatever) and this idea works until the end when, without explanation, it doesn't work - - - WHY!???! (answer: just to keep the franchise going)

2) People doing remarkably stupid things for no real reason. Example- in Wolf Creek the first woman shoots the killer then hits him lightly twice and then leaves him lying there - HAS SHE NEVER HEARD OF VIVISECTIONING!!!!!!! Then while trying to escape she sits and watches the videotapes of other families - WHAT!!!!!!!!!!


finally, 3) I personally always cringe at those films where someone is being bullied into doing stupid things but they are unwilling or unable to fight back (that Kurt Russell film Breakdown is a good example) - these films aren't 'bad' - they just irritate me personally.

Dude.....it doesn't matter. It's a movie! You go in to a horror movie, buy your popcorn, sit down, and have fun. I'm not about to criticize all horror movies because they don't encase the maniac monster in a swimming pool full of cement.

However, your insane idea to fill a swimming pool full of cement is clever and very entertaining, and I like it! It's like a fever dream. If somebody did that in a movie, I would go and see the movie, just because the idea sounds so crazy.

I wish I was a multi-millionare make the whoel entire film full of suspense and then the killer (Jason) at the end tries killing me, and then I just do that to him and that'd be the whole film. So many people would be like, Wow I never knew it would be so INCREDIBLY simple. I'm a resourceful bastard.

yeah, but where would one get a swimming pool full of wet cement on such short notice?

Same place you'd find a super human walking around killing people?

People need escape valves, they need to be in control and sure about everything.

Therefore, in films such as The Blair Witch Project, detractors are reduced to saying "they wouldn't have thrown away the map", "they could have followed the sun" etc. etc. because such is the film's raw suggestive power, conceited viewers desperately try to find a way out through their own sense of logic.

Which is of course a testament to the impressive impact of this piece of work.

I never saw the blair witch project, but I'm pretty sure I'd run one way and not stop for the life of me. ;) :D

I LIKED "The Blair Witch Project" A LOT. That movie was messed up and honestly, I had trouble sleeping for two days after I saw it. It creeped me out something serious.

But it occurs to me that you could probably solve the problem of "The Blair Witch Project" by building a giant wall around the haunted forest and then filling it full of fifteen bazillion gallons of cement. Either that or put the camcorders into a bucket of cement, so that there's no footage.

Or burn the sh!t out of the forest and break up the pieces of the tape and put it into a bucket of gasoline and then once it burned out smash up the remains if there is any. :rolleyes:

but the tape wasn't haunted, that was The Ring

In that case I would've done it with the Ring also... I don't see how ahrd it can be to break up a .50 piece of plastic.

That wouldn't work... what we need to do is kill them, chop them up into tiny pieces, and have each piece guarded separately in a different state or country around the globe in top security facilities.

first, i apologize for taking this thread seriously - the pain in my abdomen is making me do silly silly things.

second, as a person who spends a great deal of time hiking in the wilderness let me say that the various suggestions for the lost hikers in blair witch are sensible but might not have worked - even if we agree it was not some supernatural entity making them lost - it is surprisingly easy for even an experienced hiker to get totally confused and start going in circles (trees, as many folks don't grasp if you don't spend much time in forests, tend to make circular patterns and our visual tendency is to follow the 'lines' created by trees; thus, we go in circles when lost).

third, i have always wondered why there is an aisle in wal mart for 'discount swimming pool cement' - now i know.

Now you guys are just being assholes. It isn't some impossible feet to get ahold of a cement truck and find someone with a pool or just digg a deep hole.

maybe you could fill your own asshole with cement and then when the killer attacks you could. . . hmm. . .wait, give me a minute. . .you could. . .

fart cement dust in their face? . . . hmm, that doesn't seem to be effective. . . wait, uhm, damn, i got nothing. .

oh, I know, YOU COULD SHIT BRICKS!

no no no zero... He would shit cement blocks... silly head! *tee hee*


*slits wrists*

But really, this swimming pool idea is great, mainly because it's very fever dream-like. It is a method for destroying a supernatural whacko that might be dreamed up by someone just as whacky as the whacko!

i figured if you were running around the cement might mix a bit. . . but biologically, you are probably right. . ..


but this solves our problem -shit cement blocks, then use them to create an enormous wall (Think: Great Wall of China) to box in the killer. . . problem solved and we didn't even need to ruin our swimming pool - time for margaritas and some tanning!

*twitches* I have no idea what you're talking about cat.

its sad that the only person here who is remotely interested in your original idea (well, except as comedy fodder) is the person you don't understand. . . i'd go back to the cement bricks idea if i were you

I can't afford cement. What if we fill the pool with gelatin?

No, that idea is for homosexuals and the british.

My personal fav is from Yzma in 'Emperor's New Groove':
"I will turn the emperor into a flea. Then I will put the flea into a box. Then I will put that box into a larger box. I will mail the box to myself. And when it arrives, I'll smash it with a hammer !"
