What the? Why the hell?
Talking about some of the effects in recent non-low budget horror...
examples are Mortuary and MofH season #2 That Damned thing... Since when did a very poorly animated version of the Tar Monster from Scooby-Doo become the standard in horror... I know that on Sci-Fi we get that (I've come to the conclusion that Chili's and Bowflex must be the ones financially backing the Sci-Fi original productions) but come on...the claymation in the Evil Dead is cutting edge stuff compared to the end of Mortuary. My 14yo fell off the couch laughing towards the end of Mortuary...I remember seeing the blood spurt tube sticking out of a guys outfit in Zombie Lake...but man that was early 80's! How about the creature in Sabertooth....good grief. I just have a hard time...seeing a film with recognizable people both involved with and acting in the film...you have to wonder what they are thinking when looking at the final cut.:eek:

yeah, I've written a few SciFI Channel turds. It's pretty disheartening to write a scary monster into a script and see it rendered so horribly on the screen.

I love bad horror.....it makes life a little more fun. There are true gems of bad effects out there....like Metamorphosis: The Alien Factor. A giant garbage bag and claymation mutant frogs can brighten an otherwise dull day.:D

Bad horror is OK when its low budget, indie, or not known...just beginning people, etc...you kind of go in with the expectation that the effects will not amaze, but to see someone like say a David Keith in Sabertooth and then see the ridiculous image of the creature at the end...not even a good cartoon...Denise Crosby in Mortuary...or the end of That Damned Thing...or a Godzilla suit in 2005...ones like that just shock me.

Hope I can keep holding out, but my resolve is failing. And Urge, I fucking wish Kraken looked half as good as that image:eek: But my contribution to that film was several drafts back and NOTHING like what ended up on screen - and I'm saddled with the "written by" credit. Kind of like working for Corman or Troma, just not as cool.
