The thing is I kind of agree with him. I've never liked horror movies where the villian is a little kid. I understand that there is supposed to be something psycholoically unsettling about the idea of a small child being a force of evil-but their usually more annoying then frightening. didn't like The Ring, or Orphan, or really any of those types of movies.
Have you seen Let the Right One In, Anon? It's not quite the same tonally as the films you mentioned: it's about the children, whereas movies like The Ring (and pretty much every other child-horror movie) focus on adults.
You may not like it--especially if you really hate child-horror--but I think it's worth a watchin'.
Let The Right One In was a GREAT movie! If you dislike it because its about a "a little girl vampire and that's lame cause anyone could just kick her ass" you are completely missing the point

My very favorite thing about this comic might be the slogans on your customers' t-shirts. And, well, the spittle of course.
ReplyDeleteThe funny part to me is that it's not a girl.
ReplyDeletegreen_rave: I hear they cut that part (of the story!) in the U.S. remake.
ReplyDeleteExcept...she's not a girl!
ReplyDeleteAh, you beat me to it.
ReplyDeleteLet the right one in? I haven't heard that before. Is it the same as Let Me In?
ReplyDeleteOh, the original is foreign. Okay I get it now.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who found it funny that he says he could KICK Chloe Mortez's ASS?
ReplyDeleteHaha, she'd rip him half.
ReplyDelete@J.D. Coughlan - Well technically, he's not talking about Chloe Moretz. She's in "Let Me In", not "Let the Right One In".
ReplyDeleteThe "girl" vamp in Let the Right One In is FAR scarier than Hit Girl's version.

ReplyDeleteEven though she's not actually... aw fuck!
