I just don't think people involved in any kind of religion or sect are cool. Not even gurus and priests. If there's a god, then he's cool. That goes for other specific character traits too.

I guess I should have been more specific on what the article was talking about, I tryed to find it online but I couldnt.. But I was wanting to know if anyone had heard of a genre called that. I myself havent. But anyways what the article was about was how a lot of christian organizations are tired of how christians are portrayed in horror movies. They were complaining about this and have even been talking to many directors/producers of horror films to atleast make christians look more positive.

Christian organizations should be proud of the exposure. Bad press, good press, it's better than no press at all.

I have never heard of such a genre, I cant really recall whereas a horror film show christianity in a bad light, it is usually just standard good against evil stuff, but maybe I am missing something.

That guy supposedly is into christian horror film making. But how is your movie supposed to be a christian horror film when most of your crew isn't?

About horror films not portraying christianity the way they'd like them to be, how exactly ARE they portrayed? More than half the time they're the good guys. They should be happy with that.

wuu hoo today is election day in australia. and there is a christian politcal party that said all dykes are witches and shold be burnt at the stake. and also it told it members to keep a eye out for evil doers at evil places. and it list such places as. brothels, hotel bars dark alley, muslim mosques (sp). and our right wing primeminister said he is gonna give that party his support over the green(enviromental party) and the democratic party. lol i thinks thats funny.....also if his party wins by next year the the two top jobs in the country will be taken by two people named abbott and coestello.lol
p.s im gonna go join that christian party so ican have a good excuse for hanging out at brothels and hotel bars.
