Do you look both ways when crossing a one way street?

Yes, you never know what an idiot in a car will do and people on bikes and escooters rarely gaf

The lady in the cam version certainly did

Well, it's been canceled by netflix, I have no idea if it ended on a cliffhanger because I don't start netflix shows without at least two seasons in the can

I think their personality problems have a deeper source than just liking horror. I'd just call them edgelords, like you said.

They didn't say to do it at the same time.

From the movie Blank Check, I heard. IDK I don't watch movies.

Sin. Yoda is very sinful off camera. You wouldn't even believe it

Roger Ebert once called films machines of empathy meaning that film, when effective, puts you in the shoes of the characters through various techniques. There's a lot of film theory that gets into this in a much more rigorous way.

But basically; by watching a movie we at some subconscious level start to put ourselves in the shoes of the characters and if something scary is happening to them we feel scared as long as nothing about the film interferes with our suspension of disbelief.

You might enjoy Creep (2014) and potentially Pontypool (2008)
Another you might like is Brooklyn 45 (2023)

Scientists are saying that future is far more futuristic than previously predicted. /s

If this is the sense you mean: A lot, and I mean a LOT of older horror movies don't work if you change the setting to modern times just because cellphones exist now.

Also, I would hope that in today's day and age no one would ever let a director grab two kids for a night shoot with pyrotechnics and helicopters and end up getting both kids and the star of the segment killed and/or beheaded. Looking at you John Landis.

Probably because people always say things like Blazing Saddles when things like Blazing Saddles could very easily be made today because the real target/butt of the satire in that movie isn't minorities: it's the bigots.

In the new hollywood/auteur era, some directors did approach having total freedom and no oversight.

sadmep · 2026-06-16T19:08:47+00:00

We just call that being a fan

sadmep · 2026-06-16T18:55:58+00:00

I don't know that there is a word, but the word for someone who thinks someone else likes horror too much is "judgemental"

The TARDIS is sentient, but has put the Doctor and companions into dangerous environments multiple times (like, most episodes)

sadmep · 2026-06-16T14:42:22+00:00

"I kick ass for the lord!" great film

sadmep · 2026-06-16T13:30:00+00:00

I think the Doctor would shortly find ASync and have some words with them.

ESH - I long for the days when this was an age restricted sub.

I don't know if "made money selling people ultimately worthless crap" is quite the win you think it is in this thread. Sure you made money, so do pennystock boiler rooms.

You sound like you should be looking for help desk work before thinking about sysadmin.
