Sequel to what you said?
-
Couple of points.
Can my fave Peter Jackson movie before Lord of the (gags) Rings be Meet the Feebles.
I do love the runners as opposed to the slouchers when it comes to zombies. I have had horrible nightmares about zombies and theyu always run.
I love CGI when used right.
Other than that great list.
A few I would add is:
Refuse to see quarantine as it seems pointless unless you are illiterate.
Hate that now a vampire movie is almost exclusivly targeted at the same audiences that watch soap operas.
Think that Dead Set might possibly be the greatest T.V. show ever.

lol alright so I am a horror movie geek. So what? At least I know what will happen when bad horrible things start coming around lol.

You know you're a horror movie geek if you've seen the same horror movie 20 times and still yell at the girl that the monster is right behind her or do a face palm when the people go into dark woods, rooms, any dark place in general.
