Well of course I do the same thing, otherwise I would find the genre to be boring and uninteresting. I just mean that I don't get scared watching horror movies, and I don't watch them because I enjoy seeing people get slaughtered either. I have my own reasons for liking horror movies.I like seeing all of the cool monsters and I like seeing the main character (who is usually a female character) defeat the monsters in the end.
EDIT: Ah, who am I kidding? Sometimes it IS fun to see people get killed in a horror movie if they are ***holes who pretty much deserve it. Like that school teacher from Child's Play 2 or Trash from The Return of the Living Dead (and she came back in one of the coolest zombie resurrection scenes ever!).
