The "Psychological" crap gets shoved down everyone's throat 24/7. Everyone's seen it and after all the shitty CSI TV shows who cares?
Festivials are about showing something more offbeat and challenging on the big screen not the "let's join the FBI" flicks are so fucking overdone these days.
Thru the eyes of a pyshco is more effective but that always frowned upon as exploitative (Ted Bundy and The Hillside Strangler were buried but who cares... the true movie lovers find it and make dipshit critics eat their words, I shit you not these two flicks are amazing).
...but whatever there's always room for inovation and motherfuckers are doing it.

So if you guys could come up with a specific theme for a new festival, what would it be? What part of horror would it focus upon?
I was thinking of doing it also on Asian horror...but I'd really like to do something quirkier and as you say, more innovative stuff. Something out of the ordinary, but not overly twisted and controversial.
