Freddy gets stopped periodically, but it’s not like you can kill him. he always comes back. how do mystical zombies work? do they keep coming at you even if they don’t have heads/limbs?
you can rebel against a dystopian future and defeat your oppressor/terrorizer. horror comes from the realization that you can’t do anything to save yourself.
watch Return of the Living Dead. NOTHING stops them. Hell, they get nuked, and the ashes still fuck shit up.
And Zombie movies are apocalyptic in nature. They’re more about the way the people left over deal with it. They just throw in some cannibalism and extremely gory kills cuz its fun.
And I dont need a horror movie to have tits and gore, to consider it horror. Drag Me To Hell, I had fun watching it, and I consider it horror, but it wasn’t really gory, and no titties. You guys seem to be confusing slasher films and horror films
edit: I am eating salsa from the jar, with a fork. Is this a bad thing? Cuz it doesn’t feel bad.
(Hmm…wonder if I’ll should take an umbrella. With my luck, I’ll get struck by lightning and NOT die in my case. But of course it would decide to start raining heavily right before I leave.)
My, I feel rather like arse for quickly forgetting how good the music from [media=youtube]rIkW6LkX6jw&feature=related]*Coraline[/i[/media]
Arguable depending on the setting and the circumstances. There are many who would outright disagree with this, though I’m willing to listen to possible explanations.
As such, I’m curious. Who exactly is one “rebelling against” in the zombie scenario? A nuclear holocaust one? Not every dystopian future is a dictatorship or corrupt government after all. Hell, the one you yourself called a dystopian future clearly isn’t and thus rails against the very criteria you gave. So how is that not “horror”?
Um…Drag Me To Hell was kind of gory. Not like “Ziplocks double as body bags” gory, but still gory given the “comedy”/over-the-top nature of it.
Also, horrible.
Mystical zombies are what I call any undead do not have a science base reason for their existence. As opposed to " When hell is too full, the death shall walk the earth. " it implies that there is not stop the the source to the zombies for as long as people live, so shall zombies.
Bio based zombies can be treated like any other bio-hazard and that makes them less scary to me because I can wrap my head around that.
Yeah, I agree with you. The American market demands blood/gore, and that’s not necessarily something that’s scary. After all, with all the violence Americans are exposed to, they are pretty desensitized to it by now. Didn’t know about this Coraline movie until now, saw the trailer, looks good. That’s what I’m talking about. Creepy visuals, and a good story where the heroine slowly realizes that something is horribly horribly wrong. Will definitely need to watch.
Yeah that’s another reason I don’t like most horror. Its just so depressing. The heroes try their best and still die horribly. One horror movie I kind of enjoyed was Feast, because the movie made fun of itself. Every time a new character appeared there’d be a tagline consisting of a short description and life expectancy. A newcomer to the bar warns them of danger. Tagline was “HERO”, life expectancy was “Duration of the movie”. Immediately afterward he gets killed by a monster. Next his gf shows up. Tagline: “HEROINE”, life expectancy: “Hopefully longer than the last hero”. LOL! There was a little kid in the movie, and the tagline was: “Going to live a long healthy life”. Immediately afterward the kid gets mauled by a monster, and it was hilarious.
But I still hated the movie because pretty obviously most of them do NOT make it out alive by the end of the night. Horror’s just depressing. I like to watch movies to escape reality, not to be reminded how futile things can be. If I want that kind of feeling, I can look at the crap going on in America and know that I’m pretty powerless to do anything about it. No thanks.
You know what was a good scifi horror flick? Split Second. They should do a remake but make it not suck.
This is one of those rare instances where I want to open up my Horror Thread in GD, to educate your cracker ass. But then again you have Premo and just like to troll, so whatevs boelington.
Yeah those zombies are pretty damn broken. Almost invincible.
They either A) Don’t wanna look “crazy”, or B) Loves them some pork.
Damn straight.
Vamps are “mystical zombies” right?
I’m pretty sure Vampires aren’t zombies…
They technically count a little imo.
Devs are making a killing with these HD Ps2/Dreamcast ports. Let’s see: MGS1-3, Ico/SotC, RE4, Code: Veronica. Now I need Okami, KH, and REmake
But I am neither Korean nor do I play StarCraft.
I think you confused me with Tiger Woods.
Also, if this is the case, then I would like to know the build order for third base.
They can be undead or living. Zombies are almost always dead unless there’s some “L4D” or “Zombie Apocalypse” crap going around.
dinner - 200 min
alcohol - 100 min 100 gas

as you are asian i figure you know the build costs for the others
It depends on what you define as zombie as. If you define them as the living dead, them yes. Zombie, Ghouls and Vampires all fall under “Living Dead” their independent titles are more of a category of the "living dead "
It depends on whether their existence/origin is one based on science or on mystics.
Like Voodoo Zombies.
juju zombies are hardcore in 2e dont mess wit em
Action thrillers like Terminator and Aliens have always been more horrifying to me, than the run-of-the-mill horror movie. To this day when I see the T-1000 sprinting towards John Connor and fam while they’re speeding away and it’s slowly catching up still spooks me every time I watch.
Also as seen in Weekend At Bernie’s 2.
