I agree that Reggie is lame, but I'm kinda down with the Tall Man (in a psychotic preacher, Poltergeist kind of way). but I'm not a bit Phantasm fan regardless... just b/c it's old doesn't make it a classic.

also, I can't believe this thread has lasted this long. anyone taken a look at the first post in awhile? I think "crazy raplh" has a real Cinderella success story on his hands.

Shaun of the Dead is a horror/comedy. That's dead on.

Seven and Silence are debatable because there's certainly elements of horror in both, but they both also have more of a psychological cops and robbers thriller feel to them too. I'd call them both Police/Horror/Dramas but that's just me. Definately not straight horror.

Ghost Dad?
Casper the Friendly Ghost?
Beetle Juice?
Bringing Out the Dead?
The Christmas Carol?
Field of Dreams?
Ghostbusters?


Those are all horror movies simply because they contain a ghost?

I think not.
These are not a ghost movies...they just have a ghost in it....
When a comedy has a knife in it...it dont make it a slasher movie...

Hey, read the whole conversation before trying to tell me I'm wrong. urge was saying that because there was a Ghost in Ghost, he considered it a horror movie. I was saying, "Oh, I suppose you consider these all horror too because they have ghosts in them."

I never said they were 'ghosts' movies, I was just using them as examples of movies with ghosts.

You just came in and basically tried to correct what I was saying without understanding that what I was saying was essentially what you were trying to tell me I should be saying.

kind of been beaten to death anyway ...
its like trying to figure out genres at a music store - the stuff that gets placed under 'punk' is shameful.

i just do it for sake of ease so i dont have to think about it ..

ghosts, dead guys of any sort ... i stick under horror for sake of ease ..

i have 8000 movies to look through so i want to be able to find shit without thinking to hard about it .. so its whatever makes sense to me.

if i was running a video store i'd have a huge section called 'DUMB SHIT' that would be 99% of the movies in the store.

thne there would be once small section called "GOOD SHIT"
