1....I'd say fan, not so much fanatic. Generally I love cinema as a whole and I can find a film in almost any genre that I like, that includes Romantic-comedies like When Harry Met Sally or The Apartment as well as musicals including, don't laugh, Sound Of Music or Cabaret (maybe that's perhaps a subconscious Nazi thing...) But Horror is my joint-favouritee genre along with Sciene-Fiction.
2. The worst horror film I've ever seen, and I consider it trash, was the recent Pirahna remake. I kind of liked the Joe Dante version (partly because it was largely one great big Roger Corman love-fest, right down to actor Dick Miller). The new film, I actually felt embarassed about watching and switched it off. That being said, most people (At least non-horror-fans) I know would probably prefer that film to say the Lucio Fulci films I watch. Also, I don't touch Michael Bay movies (including the horror films he's produced) with a ten-foot-barge-pole. |

Really? I loved that movie, totally original at the time and creepy as hell, breakthrough movie IMO.

1. Probably more fan than fanatic. The vast majority of my collection is horror but I have a few other hobbies I spend more time following/doing.
2. This is a funny question...so many bad movies |

On occasion I'll call myself a fanatic, but in reality I'm a fan. I do watch a crazy amount of movies, and the vast majority of them are horror, but I'm not fanatical to the point where I can recite actors and directors of certain movies, and who wrote the score and the year it was released etc. I'd consider someone like that to be a fanatic.
And yes. I love really really shitty, low budget and usually independent movies, especially horror. Camp Blood is a perfect example of this. My wife and I like to make visitors watch that, and pretend like it's the best movie we've ever seen before we put it on, then just watch people slowly want to claw their eyes out as the film goes on.

Basically everyone who answered this is in agreement, Horror fans who have seen bad movies.
For the newer posters I give you the following blurbs from reviewers over the past few years of my movie "US SINNERS". Micro Budget cinema done right - Uncouth Industries Relentless Riveting Terror... Damn Disturbing... -* Deadly Indie Drive In A low-budget horror film that sticks its head high above the others around it. It will confront your expectations whenever possible. - Plot Hole For those who aren’t afraid to get down and dirty - Horror 101 See this film, every horror/thriller fan should take advantage of it - Horror Society A mini-masterpiece of depravity and dysfunction - Killing Boxx There isn't much that can make me feel uneasy or truly shock me, but Us Sinners managed to accomplish both. - Movies Made Me Highly Disturbing Gory Indie Freak Show... - Best Horror Movies Gore-o-meter rating: 4 out of 5. - Film Apocalypse One of the best independent horror films I have seen. - Dr Goreman "When you dance with the Devil, the Devil don’t change, he changes you." Even an experienced horror film viewer such as myself...got changed watching this! - Obscure Horror An in-your-face,brutal piece... made for true horror fans - Video Views A must have for hardcore horror fans. - Int'l Film Horror Society If that's not enough, there's THE CLIMAX. If you're a horror fan and don't know about it, see it. If you're a horror fan who knows about it, and haven't seen it(but could) then you're not really a horror fan. Here's some review blurbs regarding the climax. --------- Hitch my jaw off the floor after witnessing an absolutely stupendous ending. Well done Mr Snow you sick f---. - Jonsey Amazon UK It's not an ending you should witness while eating a meal. - Gorezone Magazine The logline of the film, "The carnal climax is so disturbing it will leave you breathless," is indeed true. I won't give it away here but it pushes the film up and out of the generic serial killer realm. - Uncouth Industries The finale of the film, and a scene that will shock the hell out of you, no matter how hardened you are to genre fare... - The Plot Hole An ending that goes beyond disturbing - Movies Made Me Very violent, graphic, twisted, and realistic. The ending will stay with you long after you have watched it. - Dr Goreman And that ending...that’s where you almost wanna tell George Snow that he might need some counseling.***** :)* Obscure Horror Does live up to the hype and what is promised in the final scene goes beyond what you could be told. - Video Views The ending is as shocking as it gets! All I can say is, you have to see it for yourself! - Horror Reviews Us Sinners is micro-budget, so many won't appreciate it because of how it was shot. But, even if you hate the first 70 minutes of it, the ending is GUARANTEED to be one of the best you will see. It's absolutely shocking and disturbing. You can rent Netflix and it's going to be making it's premiere at filmon.com on the American Horrors Channel. I've been plugging Us Sinners here for years. This was the first horror forum I visited when I first started pushing it. FULL REVIEWS Don't listen to me, I made the movie. Read the reviews, I don't know those people. Here's a chance to see a movie that is guaranteed to have a magnificent ending. As with any movie, it's 50/50 as to whether or not you'll enjoy the whole thing. |
