I frequently have this kinda experience. When a guest or a friend visits after a long time and after giving a look to my dvds they usually said that shit.
As they have no guts to watch this films so sometimes I like to start telling them the stories...like few days ago I just started to telling the synopsis of Funny Games & Inside to few of my relatives and they right away started to yelling at me...."this mindless freak is definitely going to be a psycho one day by watching those bad movies...":D btw, my elder brother & his wife once hated to see horror films but now they almost every night ask me for a new horror dvd. :)

None of my family members have a similar taste in movies to me, if they do sit down and watch one of my movies with me they'll usually say it's "Weird" or "Stupid" as my mom did with A Clockwork Orange.

I only have a couple of friends who have a similar taste in movies to me, one of my friends has a very similar taste in movies to me, but the rest don't.

There are a couple of members of my family that think I am a bit off, but they love me anyway....;) My grandmother has always worried a bit about my taste in books and movies, I think. Luckily I have a cousin that is a horror fan as well....so I am not the only disturbed one....:rolleyes:

My parents baffle me when it comes to movie taste. I never know what my dad is going to like, or hate. It depends on his mood I suppose. I do know he hates most slasher films. He loves westerns and action films, mostly, likes quite a few older horror films. My mother....well, she isn't much into the movies, she prefers books. She'll swear she wants to see something....then disappears halfway through. But she loved Pulp Fiction...haha. Its the only movie, except for just about anything Hitchcock, I can say for sure she likes.

My kindred spirit when it comes to movies though is my mom's best friend......she is probably the only person (okay, okay, besides my husband) that gets my love of horror, and my love of....um, bad cinema. She is the one that sent me my first 50 pack of horror classics....:rolleyes: and she is the one who bought me a copy of Plan 9. I have been told that she, and her husband, has a movie collection I would kill for...haha. One day, I have to visit her, and check it out. But she lives in California.
