8. "you are very welcome"
In response to In response to 6


  

          

there's nothing to be sorry about either. there really are plenty of movies that blur the lines between horror and suspense or thriller. as stylez pointed out, The Vanishing is fantastic. if you like or are interested in korean movies, perhaps after the oscar wins for parasite this year, another movie i streamed years back on netflix and went on to buy was I Saw the Devil, which is deranged and amazing. when it comes to gripping movies about psychos and scary situations, it's almost splitting hairs to get into what is and isn't horror.

that can definitely get formulaic. they must rake in money because every year those cheesy movies kept coming out. that doesn't mean some people aren't making them well, but it can be difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.


>I was thinking about it and I loved George Romero's Living
>Dead series. Especially night and dawn.

yes, they are great, and those two are the high points. i also like day of, as it's basically a critique of government and military.

Love the Alien franchise. Though I guess I don't consider it horror.
