A good gross-out can be pretty effective. My critique was really aimed at those people who think a horror movie sucks if it isn't gory. These people don't care about the finer elements of horror ... they just want the eye candy. Don't want to have to think about anything or use their imaginations. Which is why I never really got into any slasher flicks at all. Sorry if I offended you. :) (<---- making friends grin)

no arguments there, there needs to be something to set a tone, to build up the suspense....i just felt that bwp didn't do that, well for me anyway.
as for gore, gore is gore it can enhance a film but not MAKE a film, even i can admit that.
no offence taken, unless of course you're having a go at italian films.....in which case i'm gonna have to ask you to step outside :D
