Horror depends on the individual

There is rape, murder and brutality in the film, which was for its time, got the film band

People now look for something more graphic

I like the film and would not say it was a pure horror film, but it is closer to a horror movie than anything other genre

And as for me, I am one of the worlds biggest film and book junkies in the world. I simply can't get enough of either.
And as for the lack of readers, i find it rather depressing.

I thought the movie was really really bad.

the film, although it is Kubrick's vision, is extremely similar to the book. most of the lines said are taken straight from its pages.

and I like the movie, even though I don't want to.

everyone has their own opinion - but i always want to know when someone says they thought a classic film was bad - what their reasoning for it is ..

I like this movie a lot more than the book. Very cartoonish and sleazy. Almost reminds me of a Manga film or perhaps one of those horrible Carry On movies on acid. In my top 3 Kubrick films, second only to Dr Strangelove.

I saw about 10 min of this on TV.

Alex was acted awesomely [I know the actors name, dunno how to spell it], but I have no intention of seeing the rest of this anytime soon. Maybe in a few years Ill check it out....
