Oddly enough, it turns out that horror ISN'T the literary and film equivalent of punk rock. Apparently, and this is just what I heard so it might be wrong, horror is supposed to scare and/or entertain. They have these "independent arthouse" movies to offend and piss people off. As for the getting laid part, who gets turned on by watching this? Know what movies to get laid to and piss off your parents with? Porn.
