I HATED fear dot com, it was so stupid, But i do think that they are leaning toward movies more in the lines of mystery and suspense, and turning away from Slashers, and gore filled movie. I myself am a fan of both. I like movies that make you think and blow your mind, but i like to see tons of blood and guts too!! I think as long as there are fans of both there will be movie with both!

I liked feardotcom, but I liked it because it was different. But I even like off-beat poorly filmed blood & guts movies like dead alive also! It just depends on my mood, and if I have enough money to rent both kinds. If I don't then I usually rent the mainstream movies.

Here's a thought! They need a channel that plays horror, all horror all the time! From off-beat blood & guts to mainstream hits! That would be cool! I'd find a way to get cable or satellite then!!:D

That may be happening. As far as IMO: in my opinion.

That would be great! It could be a pay channel like HBO. That way there wouldn't be any commercials! I hate those pesty things for the most part!

I thought "feardotcom" had such an incredibly elongated and silly premise that I couldn't really get everything that was intended for it out fo it. A ghost on the internet that kills you ooOOOoooOooooOoooOooOOoOoOoooooo... she looks like she's from a porn site more than a "fear" site. I also think that the female main character (who starred in "Ronin," and was quite good in it, I think) wasn't right for the role.
Identity had a great plot but was easily predictable... and that whole sequence where he starts "counting down" going "tick-tock-tick-tock" made me feel embarrassed to be watching it (anyone ever get that feeling with a movie... it starts getting so cheesy and slightly painful to watch that you start groaning and either stop the tape or change the channel?).
The Ring was creepy at best... never scary... maybe it's because I watched it alone at ten in the morning... the only really creepy part wasn't even in the movie: I was in the living room and light was coming through the big window, bouncing off an overturned DVD-ROM on my PS2 and reflecting on the opposite wall...the image? A wobbley, scratchy, oval-like, white (purple) ring...
A film that I felt hasn't gotten enough recognition on these boards is Se7en... perhaps it's more of a "Thriller," I dunno... but I found it to be a most delightful film... one of my top ten favorites in any category of all time... I just wish they'd show the head on tv more often... they won't even do it on the movie channels... bastards...

Oh and the movie "A.I." scared the shit out of me... (I know it wasn't directly mentioned...) :-P

*FADE OUT*

"The Others" to me is a great suspenseful/mystery horror flick.. I wouldnt call it intelligent, but more of mystery. I get in my moods when I just want to set down and watch a movie like this..

Who is in Se7en? I heard a lot about it but haven't seen it yet. Is it a mainstream movie? And is it at the movies or on video?

I've never seen it, but I believe Brad Pitt is in it. I also heard that it's crazy as fuck and will mess you up for awhile. I definitely wanna check it out.

OH! I know what movie that is now that ya told me Brad Pitt was in it. And yes it was cool! But I just didn't associate that with horror! But it was a F*cked up storyline. The killer was sick. Kevin Spacey at his best! Definately an intelligent flick!
