Movies aren't philosophy.

I watch horror films because they are cool. They entertain me and sometimes frighten me. DONNIE DARKO provokes thought and that is entertaining. THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE scared me . Even now, if I wake up at 3:00 AM , I think it's the hour when demons from hell have the most power. Both of these films are great. My pick for worst film would be all the FRIDAY THE 13th series. Bad acting , bad writing and bad direction add up to a series of films that don't have one moment of fear or anything cool or entertaining. There's some gore and some tits and ass. Boring. On the other hand, there are dozens of really bad films that I love. ATTACT OF THE MUSHROOM PEOPLE is an example of a film I love even though it's pretty bad. I love it because it's incredibly creative.
