Its cool - it's part of the findings - obviously horror films use underlying themes based on socieities fears at the time. The task is putting together a 10,000 word document that proves it.

urgeoks comments will be valid - even if its to just say that horror fans are sicko of silly noob's asking repetitive questions ;)

Please keep the genuine comments etc coming guys...

Rick

not to much repetative ,, its just so obvious it has no merit.
think about it ...


recently due to the increasing focus on Japanese horror cinema we discussed how horror differed culturally in specific terms ..it was an interesting take.

dont mistake my comment for noob bashing - they werent ..

my point was that the actual question posed was - for me - just too obvious.

and so far you have about 2.5 replies with actual content so that suggests to me that other folks may have felt the same way ..

i dunno ...

I respect your opine, but maybe most people are lazy and would rather bash then provide a reply of some substance. If they don't like the thread don't read it.

Whoa, settle down cowboy, I was not referring to you, just putting in my 2 cents worth. After reading the original post, I know if the thread is going to be worth reading/responding to, IMHO. I do sift through a lot of flames/bashing on many threads finding little which is relative to the original subject, but hay if that’s what people want to do, so be it. I was just making an observation.

I'll say it again - I don't deny to question within itself is obvious - in terms of a yes or no answer - if I could just provide a yes or no answer and get a good grade then I wouldn't have bothered posting the question. Its a little bit more involved than that.

Like i said, formulating a 10,000 word document that is well structured and shows evidence and arguments for the topic is the challenge - not actually answering the question.

Again, i'm thrilled that you've wasted this much time on a topic you think isn't worth answering again because it's already been answered before, but if it bothers you that much why are you still posting on this thread?
