Comedy Horror

[ABjerg]

I've never liked comedy mixed with horror. It's so dumb imo.

But still, I like these for example: Braindead, Tucker & Dale vs Evil, Chucky-movies.

By Chucky movies, i'm guessing you mean Bride and Seed right? Because the first three were straight up horror.

I'm siding with Neverending and Newb on this one. I really don't think horror comedies or spoofs affect the horror genre at all. It's a sub genre. In all these years, it hasn't taken the straightforward horror away from us.

The thing that really ticks me off is when a horror film is remade with contempt for the original. The Wicker Man for example.

I hear what you are saying it is just my personal view so its just how I feel. I agree with you about the contempt in remakes-I spit on your grave is another example of that-the remake turned the artistry of both sexes using sex as a weapon in the original (perhaps going too far but that's another debate) and turned it basically to torture porn.

It's alright. There's no law that says you have to like certain films and never speak ill of them.:)

I agree with you about Braindead-but more because it is a complete gorefest and you can't look at a lawnmower the same way after watching it. Oh I enjoyed the first three chucky movies-I think the series went too far into comedy after that.

Army Of Darkness was a good horror mixed with comedy flick. Its not exactly horror but another good one was Godzilla Vs. Megalon. I always wondered if they intended it to be a comedy or if it just came out that way from poor movie making. Anyway, it was hilarious, my wife and I laughed our asses off when we saw it in a drive-in.

I think Army Of Darkness had some great scenes but the last half an hour ruined it for me it got so ridiculous and silly that it was almost unwatchable.

Of course.
