Tell me all about it, dear...

I have a theory about slash/gore movies: 1) The people that like them are what's the matter with America; 2) The people that make and sell them are what's the matter with America; 3) The people that like them also like Rush Limbaugh and Fox News; and... 4) Gore was gutless in 2000. Just thought I'd throw that last one in as a bonus....

I don't like all that blood and guts stuff either. Good luck at the post-op exam. I am sure you will be ready to go in every way....

My things overwhelm me, too. Sigh.

You know, I agree with you on the gory stuff on TV and the web, icks me out. But I heard this theory that sort of makes sense I guess, that when people are in an environment where they know they are safe (like on the sofa watching a horror movie) and they get startled or scared, the rush they get is like a happy hormone and they feel good, or thrilled. It's a safe scare. Maybe that works for some people but for me it just leaves me with unpleasant images that can then play out later in my nightmares...

I think I don't like it because having been scared and anxious both with and without good cause, the last thing I want is to artificailly recreate those feelings. I don't like anything about Halloween. Mrs Grumpy x

All the gore is once again example of immature adults ruining and taking a magical holiday away from children. I think it stinks. Adults need to grow up and stop stomping all over the innocence of their kids. It's for THEM, not us.

For me, the scariest stuff is what you cannot see.
