Hi!
  One of my co-workers just saw yet another remake of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre) at the movies last weekend. I don't know about you, but I find the most scary movies/books/poems/stories that I take a liking to are the ones where the 'mystery' is left to your own imagination. Instead of seeing the blood and gore, I'd rather 'imagine it' for myself. How about you? ~Cleo

Jox,
I find it very interesting that you consider the "Alien" movies as horror movies (though I understand your point ). Out of curiosity, would you consider "The Lord of the Rings" (novels or movies) to be horror? IMO, they are some of the most suspenseful works ever done. And they certainly have what I would call a "menacing supernatural element". Of course, it's been my experience that the very best novels, movies, etc., can't really be put in any "category". PS- I'm also a big James Bond fan. Lori, Would that be considered "chaotic chaos"? |
