Sex and Horror does it mix well??

What are your thoughts on Sex and Horror together..??? Of course without these formulas we would not have the dumb teenagers going into the woods to get chopped up..

It has been a staple of the genre for god knows how long. Someone thinks it mixes. I think it's a must in a slasher movie. If you're making a smarter flick though, leave it out unless it helps tell the story.

totally agree.. reason i ask is because i was talking to a friend the other day, he had mentioned the movie "the ring" and he said "man I cant stand these new horror movies there is no sex in them." I told him to get a slasher as you mentioned.. which are great.. :D

which brings us back to the old saying "depends on the concept"

Not to bite, but it depends on the movie.

That is a interesting subject..hope I don't step on anyones toes by saying this..it is all in good humor..I think in some of slasher movies the killer kills because he is sexually frustrated. Two killers I can think of for example is Jason and Michael. Both kill usually during sex or when your about to get it on. Or just plan in the buff. Michael breathes kind of heavy when he sees a girl naked or a couple having sex. Could it be the mask or just bad case of asthma? Hmmm....Then again after being locked up for so long could do some time on ppl since he spent most of childhood locked up the hormones must be rising...Either way sex and horror is a dangerous combo. And yes I agree it is useless in a movie besides trying to get a rise out of ppl....

maybe?

I think maybe it will work in a horror flick if it is used with discretion.

I mean, its ok to have a bit in it, but if it turns into a sick porno movie, I don't think It would be that great then would it?

I agree on one thing though, a teen slasher movie should have it no questions asked simply because DUH! ITS A TEEN MOVIE!

Think of all the hormones that are flowing through a hyped up 17 year old?

I mean crap man, its just natrual.

But, then, seeing some naked chick get her gut slashed too pieces while some zombie flosses his teeth with her guts never gets old...

Ok, so I need more info to uphold an intelegint argument...is that so wrong?
