Black people usually die first, so they got sick of cheering for their characters for like... ten minutes.

we have at least one asian i know of - and our new chatty l. cougar is a black girl.
but it's true that for the most part - horror appeals to white men between 16 and 24 - or something like that. this is probably a big reason why horror isn't that well appreciated in Toronto despite how huge it is. i know for a fact that asians (well, Toronto asians anyway) are very into sci-fi and anime. and Toronto is 50% (if not more) asian.. when the rue morgue horror convention is on - they have to combine it with sci-fi, anime, gaming and comics. the horror guests (unless they have sci-fi cross overs) hardly have anyone in their lines. in some ways it's cool - i get some pretty sweet finds re used DVDs. a giallo boxset sat on the shelves for 3 months before i went into the store according to the guy working there. my buddy is black - and he loves horror movies but he isnt't very typical... but he tells me that many blacks in the caribbean are extremely supersticious - so it's possible they are uncomfortable with horror on screen. (his brothers believe their step mother is a jamaican witch and is currently hexing them) be interesting to hear why from the folks that know though.

We have two Asians and two African Americans who post regularly- out of about 30 regular posters I'd say that's a pretty signifigant percentage.
