Unhappy

:( I seem to have been got at through this thread, I was only trying to find out about some horror films I have yet seen. :(

From the three earlier comments by slasherman, The Flayed One, and tarcher80 I can't help but think they were somehow taking the mickey... having a good laugh about this thread.

I don't understand why people can't see that I'm new to the forum and most probably will get a few things wrong when starting out. :(

EDIT: If a moderator reads this thread could you please remove it. I don't seem to be getting the feedback I wanted.

there's nothing wrong w/ posting a thread to invoke opinion on movies you haven't seen, it's just the way you posted it looks like spam. we’ve had problems w/ spam in the past and excuse us if we're a bit wary when someone attaches links in their thread.

"general" seems to be a good description of the type of horror film I like, as broad as that is................although that can encompass a lot of things, including the other two categories, neither of which I care for particularly, but both of which have had a few good films in my opinion. For example, an example of a really good religion-based horror film would be "Dracula Has Risen from the Grave." I liked that one a lot.

And I wasn't gonna say it, but then I thought about and and said, "Why the hell not?" I really *hate* serial killer films, with the clever deranged flipped-out guy sitting and planning elaborate weird shit to do to people. This category has sure had its good moments (Seven, Silence of the Lambs) but most stuff I have seen feels devoid of creativity and bores me endlessly. Boring, boring, let's move on.

I would rather watch a straight slasher movie (not the most creative genre, but these are usually charming in their simplicity).

I like monster horror the best, so I guess that would fall under the general category.
Please don't take it too personally. Everybody pokes fun here.
Sometimes with a stick.
