Question Concerning Animals in Horror films
I am just curious, but has any but my self noticed that it seems that they cant make a horror movie any more unless it has got to have some animal getting killed in it?

not really true in the slightest bit, there are very few films with real animal killing in it, men behind the sun, cannibal holocaust and ferox, may be a few others but thats pretty much it. while i do have to admit it bothers me greatly, and for that reason i refuse to watch men behind the sun, because i have a passion for cats.

re
well I can think of several
jaws cujo the ring the grudge the remake of antiville mans best friend Far to many for me to even remember orca Black beauty Hell even lassie had scenes where a Mountain lion got shot The other ( think thats the title) involved a kid shooting a dog with a home made bow) Aligator Deal alive x-files The Blob The Simpsons (non Horror) Family Guy (non Horror) American Dad (non Horror) That 70s show (non Horror) Hell even lassie had scenes where a Mountain lion got shot. Theres a crap load more of them but I cant remember I simply got to the point if it has, I get up and shut it off. I think these writers need to learn that theres a very fine line between scareing someone to Death and grossing them out what would be nice is to have a rating for animals being harmed in movies Something like AH involves scenes that involve animal harm. |

jeez, next you'll say we can't kill any people anymore. ps people really die in the movies, they just bring out their clone to star in the next movie :eek: pps the world is actually flat, the myth that it is round is perpetuated by hippies and communists |

Re: re
Quote:
also, there's a difference in an animal being in a movie and it getting killed. blowing up a robot shark at the end of Jaws is a bit different than showing natives behead an alligator. also, you seem to be saying that "these days" people can't make a movie without killing an animal, but the movies you list span several decades. anywho. not trying to be a dick. just trying to get you to be more specific and back your point up a bit better.

Re:
Not really, when Jaws first came out it caused
such a panic well lets just say that there was a whole lot more shark hunting due to that movie. Now as far as The simpsons sure that's only a cartoon but its being watched by very young minds who think man lets do that to our cat! and regardless what the rating is the simple fact is Its a cartoon and kids watch cartoons. Most people who do abuse animals in real life most likely learned it off TV Now as far as movies such as Jaws Anaconda and all the other Snake Shark and alligator as well Giant crocodile movies I can see it to a point when they were playing the main villain. But I am mainly referring to innocent animals getting nocked off for no reason such as in the remake of The Amityville Horror (2005) here a dog was trying to give warning and for its reward it gets a axe in the head! Now here is what you need to ask why would a writer wish to add something like that to a movie answer: cause he watched shows like the simpsons when he was a kid. The purpose of a Horror movie is to Scare people not Gross them out! there a very fine line between the two. |
