Who told you that?? :oldunsure:

But that's only a part of it, as I posted. As I read your post Zodiac popped into my mind. We wouldn't have had to see the violence, but if it had scenes like Zodiac or Silence where we are there with the people as the killer is stalking them, it would have crossed that line. To me a big...

:yes: That was the worst horror movie I had seen in a very long time. Then I saw the newest Children of the Corn movie and it got bumped off the podium.

:scared:

Time for the stoner ramble on my thoughts of some movies brought up. I was talking to somebody at work, and posted something similar to somebody via PM as well. IMO, the start of the "horror or not horror" conversation would start something like: 1. Is the violence/horror on screen or off...

This is the first one that I noticed on the countdown where my list would have come in to change the 200 a bit. I am quite surprised that you were the only one, my first pass through had it at #12, so I am right there with you. The phone calls are creepy AF.

My ruling is not horror. More later as to my thoughts on why not.

I am going to watch Terminator tonight and think more about that one. It feels like a call back to the discussion about movies like Se7en and Silence of the Lambs as to if it crosses over the boundary into horror or not. Btw, after more thought I am rounding on the opinion that Silence of...

@Tick I posted about it before, but one that ties in well to our countdown is The Evolution of Horror. It's a British podcast so the accents are a plus, but what I love about it is that it does a deep dive on a genre in chronological order for 20+ episodes in a season. For example, their...

Never heard of this until this morning on a podcast ( @Tick , I think it was you who asked about pods and I have an answer. Remind me if I don't post something after work tonight). Added to the queue.

I'm not enjoying it at all.

Yup. We need a video store Renaissance. !!

I really like his newer ones as well, but agree here. Love House of the Devil, and it would have made my list - probably the 40s to 50s range. I remember liking Innkeepers by him too, but only saw it the once.

Is this one people didn't think was "horror" enough, maybe? Great movie I recommended a lot, especially as a ramp up horror movie when families came in.

Very 4/20 movie.
