Tough critic?

[The Mothman]

Do you find yourself to be a really tough critic regarding horror movies, or do you find yourself liking more films than you dislike, like myself?

Even bad horror movies are valuable. The more shiteous they are, the funnier. I am a harsh critic when it comes to actors though.

I'm harsher with nongenre films than I am with genre films. Banality, lack of originality and bad emotional aesthetics in a lot of movies other people consider the greatest of all time annoy me.

Not particularly. I find that I can usually enjoy SOMETHING about nearly every film I watch. Typically, as long as I am entertained in some way I am happy. I love bad movies, because often they are freakin' hilarious and go well with a few drinks. Doesn't mean I will recommend it to someone else, but I may still have fun with it.

I have noticed that I seem to be harder on remakes than anything else (usually, it seems to depend on my mood, my mood can ruin just about any movie for me. And sometimes it helps me enjoy a film far more than I would otherwise).

Let's face it: the majority of horror movies are terrible. You have to have a pretty big tolerance for bad movie-making to wade through all the bad films and find the diamonds in the rough.

I find myself here lately being really let down by the ends of lots of movies.I'll enjoy it to the end the ending will just kill it for me.

I think I am more harsh when I watch horror movies because I love the genre so much. After seeing so many excellent ones you tend to have limited patience with mediocre/shitty horror movies.

This happens to me as well sometimes. The endings ruined Saw and High Tension for me.

I'm a sucker for most things horror so I'm not as harsh on horror/exploitation flicks as I am of conventional cinema.

I an a tough critic about any movie. I enjoy bad movies to some degree- but they have to be spectacularly bad for me to find them funny. Most bad movies to me are just mediocre and boring. That pisses me off.
