Thank you. Another to put on my avoid list. One I think everyone should avoid too even though it very definitely isn't horror is Chopper. Well could be classed as horror in that I actually watched it. Still have nightmares over someone making me sit down and watch it again.

Blood Feast does have some historical importance. Granted it's not a good movie in the "normal" sense of the term, but it was rather influential. We are obliged to give props to H. G.'s mad skills.

I say don't avoid any horror movies, just push some of them back on your agenda until you get around to it.

For instance, I absolutely LOATHE Exorcist II: The Heretic. I'm glad I've watched it though. That way, when I discuss movies with my friends, this is how the conversation goes.

"Dude, DO NOT watch Boo. It's terrible."
"How terrible? As bad as Exorcist II?"
"Not quite, but pretty close."
"Ouch. I gotta see that to believe it."

So the circle continues. Terrible movies have their place, the same with the greatest.

i used to think that all movies had at least one saving grace.
as i got older i found my time was far to valuable to waste 90 min at a time on a horrible piece of shit.

some movies are so bad that they are a valuable class on how not to make a movie. cool if you're into that kind of thing which i am.

some movies are so bad they're good .. i like those too..


but somewhere these extremes lay a terrible place ... a place where the most horrific films reside .. the mediochre films that just insult the intelligence ..
should of worked but didnt because the people involved didnt try or have the brains or the budget to focus the film - turn it up a notch.

films that 'almost work' actually grate on my nerves far worse then the pure shit films.

you keep thinking 'come on, you can do it, just reach out a bit' but they dont, and the film fails and i get pissed off.

i hope i never ever see another one of those films again.

at my age my time alloted to watch films has to be invested more wisely
