Re: Are Slasher's "Acting"?

Sure, the character is kool....but not bacause of the actor, beacause of the writers, and the costume


There are exceptions, Im not adressing all slashers (Robert Englund is very talented as Freddy), Im mostly talking about the silent, emotionless killers, Jason and Micheal being the most prominent.


As stuntmen, some are very, very talented. But how does that count as acting? Are stuntmen credited under "Cast"? Nope. Why? Cause they arent acting.


Please keep this to a respectable debate, If you disagree, please state why.
