Scariest Movie Ever- Audition. I'm not dating anybody after seeing that.
Scariest Movie as a Child- Halloween (Didn't help that I was 5)
Best Movie With Lots of Gore- This is a complicated question. What exactly makes a movie eligable to be best movie with lots of gore? What's the scoring like? Is a great movie with a lot of gore more worthy of being best movie with lots of gore or should a movie that's not quite as good but has more gore be the best movie with lots of gore? Suicide Circle is great and has tons of gore, but Evil Dead is a bit better, but isn't as gory. There's my answer.
Best Movie With no Gore- Kairo
Movie you Wish was Never Made- All sequels of Halloween
Movie you Wish was Made- This is another tough one. The Inferno wouldn't have worked period as much as 5 years ago, but could be done visually now. But I'm not quite sure it would work story-wise. There would be trimming of course, but then a lot of symbolism and context would be gone. Also, it would bomb because modern movie-goers would shit on something as deep as The Inferno, and literary snobs would shit on a movie made from The Inferno, so the only ones who would go are people like me, who can see how it might work or at least want to know if it did, and there are few people like that. It would bomb, but it bombing would not be justified. I don't know that I would want this movie made.
Also, what about those movies where the casting was originally way different? Sean Connery as Morpheus and Johnny Depp as Neo would be way different. Jake Gyllenhaal starring in Moulin Rouge? Way different. But the movies were made nonetheless. Does this count? Are these things eligable?
I am vehemently against sequils in general, much more so...so much more so...after I saw a poster...for a SEQUIL, a fucking SEQUIL GOD DAMNIT...to Dirty Dancing...SHIT I'm about to have an anneurism (sp?) from being pissed off so much about this movie...
So what's left? Book adaptations? They've all pretty much been done. I hate remakes. I just want a movie with Christopher Walken being waaaaaaaay evil, with Billy Crudup in it because he's tragically underused, Jason Lee, Jake Gyllenhaal for the same reason as Billy Crudup, and maybe Colin Farrell, but he's used a lot recently. I want the movie to be good, but not 'Best Picture' at the Oscars good, because those usually aren't the best movie of the year anyways, but maybe 'Best Actor' good.
Forget it, I just want them to make more good movies, but that's too much to ask.
Favorite Director- Kiyoshi Kurosawa
Favorite Actor- Bruce Campbell
Least Favorite Actor/Actress- I don't know.
Biggest Dissapointment- Uzumaki
Biggest Surprise (enjoyed)- The Ring
Most Influential Film- M
Farthest Ahead of it's Time- well, 2001: A Space Odyssy would be my usual answer, but since this is horror, I'll go with either M or Faust
Best Low Budget- Here's another long answer, bitches. Are basing this on quality or on how much money it made for being a low budget? On the latter, nothing will touch Blair Witch Project. It was made for like $20, but it made millions because the general populous is stupid and thought it was real. Based on quality, it's tough because there's a lot. But I'll go with Last House on the Left or Versus or Donnie Darko
Most Underrated- The Ring (I'd add Ringu, but that's highly rated in it's mother country, so it's out)
Most Overrated- Texas fucking Chainsaw Massacre remake
Best Scene- The scene at the beggining of Versus. The mobster gets shot, turns into a zombie, Lead prisoner and mobster cohorts shoot zombie mobster until he's dead again. Lead mobster looks at his fallen cohort and thinks. Then he turns to the non-helping prisoner and shoots him to see if he turns into a zombie as well. It's not scary, not artistic, not flashy or deep or gorey or any of those things...it's brilliant.
Best Movie With Twist- Well, all the good twists have been clichéd into common knowledge, from the Planet of the Apes (the real one) being Earth to the identity of Keyser Soze, and especially all the horror movie twists, so what's an egg to do? Memento isn't a horror movie, Fight Club isn't either. I'll go with 28 Days Later.
"OMG THAT DIDN'T HAVE A TWIST DUMBASS LOL!!!"
Shut your mouth. The twist was subtle. They didn't have a big scene to reveal it and have all kinds of mellowdrama built around it. They mentioned it, the twist occurred, they moved on. The end did involve it, and I disagreed with that. It should've ended with the crash at the gate.
Most Disturbing- Paradise Lost: The Murders at Robin Hood Hill
Movie That Made People Paranoid- Jaws
Best Series- I dunno
Best Book to Movie- Battle Royale. I don't care if it's not horror, fuck you bitches. It's close enough.
Worst Book to Movie- Dreamcatcher
Best Movie With Humour- Versus. The humor wasn't really humor, but the movie wasn't really serious.
