Zeus 09/09/18 1:39:24 AM #150:	The Wave Master posted... The current trend of horrible horror movies baffles me. I bring this up because of The Nun being number 1 at the box office this weekend. As in popular movies you personally dislike? =p The Wave Master posted... The Conjuring, Anabelle, Anabelle 2: It's still a ***** Doll, Paranormal Craptivity etc, my goodness. Now this mess, granted real nuns are scarier than anything Hollywood could make up. You know you just listed three things from the same franchise, right? >_> That's like saying all shark movies suck then highlighting Sharknado 1, 2, and 3. (Granted, not a perfect example because Sharknado 2 was pretty damn fun.) The Warrens are conmen who built a career on being fake paranormal investigators and until Lorraine Warren is dead & buried I wouldn't even stream one of those movies for risk of giving her a dime. As for Paranormal Activity, the franchise has been losing steam for ages. That'd be liking judging the Friday the 13th films solely on Jason Goes to Hell (or Jason X for that matter) The Wave Master posted... I guess I'm old and remember when horror movies had blood and guts and boobies, lots and lots of boobies. They had scary main characters, interesting premises, blood, boobs, and young people making stupid decisions because they were either drunk or high...pr bpth, Not because they bought a house, and moving would be too expensive. That must be the nostalgia talking considering there were a LOT of movies in the 70s and 80s where people bought a haunted house and decided moving was too expensive, etc. One of the most famous examples is The Amityville Horror which, again, stars hucksters Lorraine and Ed Warren (seriously, fuck those guys). So if you think it's a new phenomenon, you've blocked it out. Otherwise you still have campy slasher flicks with tits-n-gore. That never really ended. There was another Hatchet film just last year (although iirc those are a bit lighter on nudity) --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:908387245] in Mobile Sui...
