Does anyone else hate Horror Comedies?
I'm just curious, because personally I cannot stand this genre. To me, the whole point of watching a horror movie is to be horrified, if I wanted to laugh I would watch a comedy.
1408 is a good example of a good concept ruined by trying to throw comic relief in the mix. No real person is going to be cracking jokes under those circumstances.
I think that most jokes in horror movies are very cheesy, and they bring the rest of the movie down.
I also find that most people that appreciate horror comedies, appreciate them because they just can't handle a real horror movie. Put someone who was actually scared by 1408 in front of say...high tension, and that person probably will not sleep for days.
Sorry, just a little rant, I'm sick of not being able to find a movie to scare me anymore.
