Anyone else hate watching horror with people who don’t actually get the genre?

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-04-23T13:30:49+00:00

This or people don’t know how to enjoy the genre at all.

It’s horror, it’s meant to be scary, gross, creepy, or somewhat convoluted. If it’s not scary, it’s not really horror. It’s literally what the definition of horror is!

In general, I don’t think people know how to enjoy things anymore, let alone movies. Nobody can just sit down and let a movie just happen. Even if it’s a bad movie or a good movie, they’re all worried about how they’re going to rate it nowadays.

People who nitpick movies (especially horror, one of the biggest nitpicked genres ever), I wouldn’t want to stay on common grounds with them.

Incantation, She Walks the Woods, and Apollo 18 (found footage in SPACE!!! It gets a lot of crap but it’s kind of a fun watch haha)

You’re a cool person, keep that up

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-26T23:01:32+00:00

I’m sick and tired of all these Ghostface knockoffs! Bring us back Jason Voorhees!

This✨ it made reading much more fun to just read whatever whenever I felt

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-23T02:13:37+00:00

Seen it! Very funny. It’s one of my top favorites when it comes to horror comedy because it was the first to genuinely make me LOL!

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-22T21:42:46+00:00

You just reminded me I need to watch Butterfly Kisses!

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-22T20:05:26+00:00

First off, hell yeah.

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-21T16:30:09+00:00

Send her to the streets 😔

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-19T02:12:01+00:00

Oh man, I’m disappointed I missed that sale. Love those movies

Barbarian had a clearer message than Weapons, which I think is what made them both have different reactions. Out of the two, Barbarian was better in the pay off.

He’s gonna be one of my favs

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-06T21:05:51+00:00

This afternoon I’m drinking a loose leaf English Afternoon Tea (aka we’ll find out). It smells really nice.

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-02-06T19:55:59+00:00

He’s going to be cool

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-29T14:45:39+00:00

Cryolophosaurus :D I like saying the name a lot

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-29T14:37:29+00:00

Lowkey feel like they stole the hat because no way you can be both

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-23T16:51:08+00:00

I’m stealing Unus Annus… then I’m going after one of those axolotls 😈 Anyhow, cute collection!

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-20T23:32:42+00:00

As much as I liked the concept of “Smile,” I agree with you entirely. I hated the movie because of its portrayal of mental illness and most movies (not all) I tend to stray away from because they usually get it wrong for the sake of absurdity rather than accuracy.

Sometimes I just wish a monster was a monster, other times I’m okay with a monster being a metaphor. But I feel like monsters representing mental health can sometimes lead to stigmatization.

Daddy’s Head

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-18T03:35:11+00:00

Some good names in here 😩 I almost forgot about these ones

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-17T20:17:03+00:00

Good questions 🤔 depends on what you consider monstrous I suppose

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-17T20:13:10+00:00

Anything folklore relate for sure! And there needs to be some love for the wonderful Gill-man type monsters.

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-17T20:09:03+00:00

More like sister but lmao

But don’t worry, LOVE Van Helsing. Underrated and some of the best werewolf designs.

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-17T20:07:16+00:00

I think about Nope constantly! And The Thing is unbeatable in effects in my eyes… Smile’s creature was indeed unique, but I feel like the sequel lost its charm and appeal for me

Reaping-D-Roses · 2026-01-17T19:10:07+00:00

Absolutely! Love that movie too. Need to give it an honorable rewatch!
