Least favorite horror sub genre
 
i'm thinking, some ppl are geared toward the slashers (fred, mike, jason)
others favor zombie horror or pyschological types (the ugly, american pyscho)
and then there's ghosts and demonic types and vampires and monster pics


anyone just plain not like certain types of horror?

The zombie thing is getting old, and most pyschological ones have the basis of a good movie, but then it somehow ends up not being that great.

Along with Slashers, they're starting to get old. Once you lose Freddy, Jason, Mike and Leatherface....there's nothing more left. It's hard to create such original characters like the ones mentioned.

I've never been a fan of slasher flicks, I prefer the demonic/zombie genre, with a splice of comedy. Like the Evil Dead series, for exmaple. A perfect mix... although more focused on comedy than most horror moviesm, especially in the case of Army of Darkness.

Still great films though... yeah.

I hate possessed kids; simply kick any knee-biter who starts speaking ancient Arabic languages.

I'm also tired of all the seeing or talking to the dead movies that Sixth Sense inspired.

Probably all those fairy tale/magical creatures gone awry movies like The Leprechaun, Rumpelstiltskin, Pinocchio's Revenge, etc. I hate those movies.

I don't like slashers like jason, freddy, and michael myers (with the exception of the first halloween). I prefer a bit more personality, pizazz, weirdness, or campy humor. I know Freddy is supposed to have personality, but I just don't find him entertaining for some reason.
Also I'm not that into the animals attack stuff. Aside from the first Jaws i haven't seen many quality scary animal pics.

There's not many quality animal pics, but if you love campy humor Abby, check out Mosquito. It's hilarious.

I like most genres, even the magical creature thing, although I have at least 1 movie in each genre I hate
