Horror's effect on your relationships?
The Sevier County News just ran an article about my marriage to a horror illustrator, and it got me wondering:
Do you find that your love of horror plays any kind of role--positive or negative--in your relationships? Maybe all your dates end up like this . . .  This kind of plays to the whole "you must be a psychopath because you write/read/like that stuff" onus. I was lucky enough to find a lady who's just like me, as I said. Sometimes it's kinda horrifying how much we think alike.

I've been married for over twenty years.My wife doesn't really like horror movies ....sure every once in a while i can talk her into watching one, just like she talks me into watching American Idol...or some such crap.Marriage is a give and take....just like any relationship.
Sure it would be cool if she was totally into horror.....maybe....i think.....like i said, after twenty something years and four kids....somrtimes you need your space....she might go into one room and watch Nip/Tuck and i will be in another watching Dawn of the Dead.It may not be perfect....but we seem to be happy and still going strong after all this time.The way marriages go now....i would say we are beating the odds.:)

My lady and I have been together for 7 years, I love horror, she enjoys it also.
Maybe not to the extent that I do. I mean I live and breath horror. From my constant babbling about how I would like to throw certain people down in the well, make them put lotion on their skin and skin them alive to my writing about disgustingly graphic things. I am making a short film that is in pre-production right now and she gives me ideas from time to time. She has read the first 5 chapters of the horror novel that I am writing and gives me constructive criticism. She has told me that she feels safe sleeping next to me because if anybody ever broke into the house she knows my brutality on the perp would be quite severe. I think its healthy to have these kind of feelings and to express them the way I do. I do believe it keeps me from really doing something bad.

I found one of my best friends thru horror movies.
I moved to a new town and none of the people I met liked anything horror related. I met a chick at poetry night who seemed really cool,so I asked her what her fav movie of all time was........It happened to be one of mine.We started out a friendship by being"scary movie buddies". Now I will be in her wedding.

i think is a postive thing in my relationship. we like the same movies and he'll watch just about any movie i want as long as its not disney or a chick flick. so i don't have a hard time getting him to watch horror movies w/ me at all. we have been together for a couple years now. my ex bf however was a different story we always fought over movies when we would rent them. he only saw a horror movie if it had a wrestler in it or some one from dawsons creek:rolleyes:

whenever i start dating a new girl, a couple weeks into the relationship i give her the "lake placid test." we watch the movie together and if she sees the humor i keep her around, if she thinks it's stupid i show her the door right then and there. a few weeks later i give her the "evil dead II test." most chicks don't get much further than the "sleepaway camp trilogy test." i can't imagine why.

My girl loves horror movies, she also loves Wes Anderson films... which couldn't be anymore odd. All the movies we watch are horror or comedy. I fucking hate actions films, Drama is way too fucking boring.

I never unchain my girlfriend from the cellar long enough to see anything, much less my horror film collection.
ok. I made that part up. The general concensus is I'm probably the nicest, easiest going guy you'd ever meet (unless you spam in the film section here LOL). Then when people hear what I do for the first time (compose music for horror films), it's the usual : "That's you ? No way ! I never would've guessed that in a million years. You're joking, right ?" After some convincing, it's always "Why ?". That part I can't explain so easy. Luckily it hasn't been a problem yet. CK
