I prefer hard terror films.
The 80s were the worst decade for horror
>The 80s were the worst decade for horror
No they weren't as detailed in my article here as to why 78-88 was the absolute peak of the Horror genre...

Gay.
Its an incel genre
*woman genre
*kino genre
Is posting and going on about slashers the new meme?!?FACT!!!
They are awful and vocal fans of them have a screw loose. I went to conventions and sometimes you see legitimately inbred looking dudes going up to Kane Hodder for autos.
With that said, I like some of the movies themselves.
Shit genre
Why are horror fans always the biggest collectors/consoomers?
Bigger than scifi nerds?
No way. Star Wars fans and weebs are definitely bigger consoomers than horrorgays.
Same audience as capeshit
>Annabelle poster
shit taste
>still no nancy
Mega gay.
she so hot I want to stick it in her pooper. or have her peg me in my pooper
Nancy is pure.
Has to be a fat woman's room.
Horror is the best genre because it utilizes every aspect of cinema to its fullest potential, visuals, make-up effects, visual effects, music and especially sound design!!!FACT!!!
>t.
That looks soo comfy!!!FACT!!!
>Horror is the best genre
Definitely.
Slashers are for morons
Slashers are pure soul. They don't make horror movies this good anymore.
They're very hit and miss.
This felt like a throwback that did irony and post-modernism right. The entire movie is based on a joke as to what to do with Jason next and the logical extreme was to put him in space, and they did it.
But it doesn't feel cynical as you can tell they had a great time making this by taking such a fricking stupid premise and just going full-moron which is why it's Grade-A B-Movie schlock greatness!!!FACT!!!
why is OP having a meltdown?
I had a discussion with a co-worker yesterday about Horror movies and I told him how during the 80's almost every year we had at least a dozen classics but even B-level movies were still fun to watch.
Could just be nostalgia because I saw them as a child but I can pick up almost any objectively shitty movie pre-1990 and still enjoy it. It's because those movies had a sort of charm to them while it was also because back then they were shooting for a theatrical release, so Directors would try to give their films at least the bare minimum level of cinematic quality which is one of the reasons they hold up.
But by the late 80's-early 90's video stores closed down a lot of small theaters and as a result we got the direct-to-video wave that flooded the market with a lot of just outright low effort trash.
It's also that as technology developed the world got smaller as a lack of communication or being able to communicate to others the problem has always been a major factor in Horror.
There are very few dark corners of the world anymore while people are soo cynical and jaded that we can't have sincerity anymore with everything having to be post-modern and deconstructionist with the protagonists usually having a flippant and cynical reaction to whatever they encounter.
This is why I fricking hate the Scream films which really kicked off that trend. It's a slasher film but because the characters are aware and discuss Horror movies and how it feels like they're in one I just can't get invested while people thought this was some sort of breakthrough when Return to Horror High did it almost a decade earlier and why the frick hasn't it got a North American Bluray release, especially as it Co-starred George Clooney?

!!!FACT!!!
certain genres should be exempt from streaming
back when my PS2 still worked a million years ago I would frequent a specific 'media store' that sold all manner of trashy horror kino (and soft core porn ofc) I couldn't possibly find or organically discover otherwise
plus the guy running it was a literal caricature of someone you imagine would be running such a place
I enjoy them.
