Why are most horror films lately about twisted families in run down villages?  email this discussion to a friend?

It's true, they are either red neck hill billies or stupid folk with rotting brains and loony grannies.

I think they are copying older horror shows already made.

Agree totally, wouldn't it be nice to see a high rise with a vampire problem? Or even rich travelers that have to fight for themselves instead of body guards or butlers to run interference. Or maybe even werewolves that have a farm and live normal sort of lives. Not harming anyone until a couple of robbers picks on their farm. Why not also a virus that exists in all vegetables and only harms when politicians argue? Just some thoughts and of course that is where a lot of movies originate.

Great ideas however Troma films might already have used your ideas!


myLot reputation of 71/100. ShadowWalker (833)  6 years ago

I think some of the reason might be that back woods people scare the average person. Because have a empty look to their eyes you never know what they are thinking. So we find it scary. Besides most city people find hillbillies less than trusting.


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  6 years ago

Yes that's true, I think they are all plotting something against us townies.

It just happens to be the fad of the times. It could have been triggered by a news item or a story somebody told and was overheard by a scriptwriter and that's how it all started.


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

That's certainly a possibility, but me thinks there are some kinds of picking on hill billies and other types of ignorance going on.

Or maybe they was inspired by the movie deliverance, Squeal piggy squeal!!!

I agree, they should make a horror movie about The Houses Of Parliament being savaged by legions of zombies. Seeing all the MPs being mutilated, I'm sure it'd be a box office hit :)


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Hell yeah I'd pay double to see that, tony blair with half of his face chewed off, great stuff!!!
Just so long as free popcorn was added!!!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

It should be set tomorrow afternoon just after the budget, so Gordon Brown can get his head ripped off :)


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Yeah and what about that bloated nugget john prescott(Putting Hull city to shame!!) getting all his blubber gnawed on and his eyes poked out by the zombie army!!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

Wow, this has the potential for a great movie, can you get a grant?


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Yeah you can apply to the film commission and present your idea to the board it could be approved, I've looked into this before(plans of making a film still remain, and yes it's a horror film, filled with my favourites demons and zombies hey demons vs zombies!!!)


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

But zombies, Demons & Politicians, who exactly is the most Evil? It's quite a toughie!


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Who cares they are all on equal ground apart from the zombies they are fairly thick and just want a quick snack whereas the politicians deserve to die horrible deaths.

Which should make for entertaining viewing.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

If they get out of hand we can always send in Sponge queen to sort them out :)


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Bloody hell all their souls and personal possessions would be absorbed by the vastness of the sponged one!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

Exactly, a new product "the Handy Sponge" absorbs all unwanted evils easily!


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Already super affiliates are lining up!!
to promote this new product!!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

This is the big one, Amway step aside :P


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Arrrgghh! the vengeance of sponged evil!



myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

Apparently filing of "Village Of The Sponged" begins too, one to watch out for.


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

I thought I saw ol spongey somewhere before and it was on the Muppets.!!!



myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)  5 years ago

Geez, she gets everywhere, is nowhere safe from her wrath?


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

The truth is people are scared silly of hillbillys with bad skin and rotting teeth.


myLot reputation of 74/100. waynet (1062)  5 years ago

Ugghhh! yeah, you're right there, now go away please, oh sorry I thought you was one of them.
