Really ? What, you're all Goths and Emo's here are you ? Will a smile crack your make-up ?

MOST movies have a comedic moment now and again ... from the funny one-liner to zany satire there is LOTS of room for comedy !!!

Horror is the same as any other genre ... it's just a little more extreme than some .

And you can use a movie or story to put across bigger points than you could in a convoluted script . Through analogy, satire, imagery etc

Night of the Living Dead - deals with issues of civil unrest, ineptitude of army, ie social commentary .
Dawn of the Dead - Compares zombies with mindless consumers in shopping malls.
Scream - knowing in-jokes about the slasher genre
Texas Chainsaw Massace - touches subject of human meat . Abbattoir to cannibalism not such a big jump (?)

Are you speaking for everyone or just you n your ego, Newb ? Tell me a joke . Ha Ha Ha ! You're funny !
Hmmmm. Please elaborate for me, the concept of sarcasm making somebody a goth/emo. You need to loosen up. Newb was just being himself and making a joke. He was being sarcastic. And look, when you've made a thread on a forum that's getting negative replies and you're a noob, you don't go around insulting regular posters and being are smart arse. I might as well clear up a few things for you.

- Threads like this don't go in the new members lounge. They go in the General forum. The word general kinda gives it away as a place where the stuff that doesn't fit in anywhere else goes.

- Noobs don't insult Vet Posters and act like they are better than anyone else.

- Threads can be stupid, as you have proved.


Any questions?
