Its seems as though it is trendy to hate HOTC, I just do not understand it. Maybe I am just jaded because I enjoyed the flic so much and I do not like to see the criticism, but damn it seems as though there is a HOTC hater bandwagon. Am I wrong or does anyone else think this? Gimme your feedback either way and feel free to mix in a explanation as to why you feel "this" way.

House of 1000 Corpses?

I didnt think it was amazing or anything, but certainly better than alot of people say. Id give it a 70%.

Yes House of 1000 Corpses.. But Return you still did not answer the first question as if it is trendy to dislike this flic. And what about the film made it a 70%?

I didnt answer the first question because I dont have an answer. I guess lots of people are turned off by the fact that it's quite similar to TCM and, in places, could be considered a rip-off. Meh, I enjoyed it.


I gave it a 70%, which I consider a fairly good mark, mostly because it was just plain crazy. Lots of it didnt make much sence, the violence was pretty good [Cop getting shot in the head, what a great shot]. It also had some very cool characters and, contrary to what most would say, an awesome ending. I thought that was just crazy enough to put it over the top, in a good way.

It lost some marks cause most of the actors [Exc. the Firefly clan] were pretty bad, and it drug along pretty bad in parts. Overall though, it was a pretty good movie that doesnt deserve all the slander it gets, IMO

What moron would dis a movie to be trendy? Unless, of course, one is an adolescent, then that might make sense. The acting in this movie was horrid, but the worst was the sudden appearance of --- an underworld. Pssssffffsstttt. Laughable.

Why can't teenagers(or anybody significantly young for that matter) ever make a decision without it being passed off as comformity?

I completely agree with you Austin. Imo, a person likes a movie or they dont, age has not one damn thing to do with it!!! The same applies to it being"trendy" not to like it, you do or you don't!
