Horror vs. Comedy
 
What film/programme would you rather watch?

Fetch The Bolt Cutters 14-05-2011 01:51 AM

horror :amazed:

i like comedy but not comedy films >_>

InOne 14-05-2011 01:52 AM

Both awful

Kerry 14-05-2011 01:53 AM

Comedy out of the two. Horrors bore me. At least comedy's may rise a giggle

I don't watch horror films.

Was at my mates a couple of months back, was just us 2 and 2 girls, we stupidly let the girls choose what film to put on and they chose Hostel :bored: One of the most disgusting things I've ever seen.

Before that the last one I seen was Jeepers Creepers 2 about 6-8 years ago I think

Comedy. I could watch them all the time, have to be in the mood for a Horror film.

Really, what's your favorite horror movie?

Horror also, btw. I like the adrenaline rush.

All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, Silent Hill, The Hills Have Eyes (remake), Dawn of the Dead (remake), 30 Days of Night, they're some of my faves. But I'll watch most horrors, once it's not torture ones (like saw) or really creepy weird ones.

What is your fave?

I loved the remake of Dawn of the Dead (thought the original was kind of boring). I've never heard of All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (interesting title for a horror film) and 30 Days of Night sounds familiar but maybe I'm confusing it with 28 days later. They sound like new films.

My all-time favorite horror film is probably Return of the Living Dead. It has a happy mix of horror and comedy. If you like Zombie flicks I'd recommend it.

For pure horror I like films like The Thing, Poltergeist, Alien/Aliens, Predator, The Blair Witch Project, Let The Right One In. I guess I tend to like the older stuff.

BTW, for all you brits who dig horror there's a really good television movie that aired in the States in 1975 called The Trilogy of Terror. It had 3 stories and the last, called Amelia, was by far the best. Might want to have a look when you're in the mood for a scare. It's over 30 years old so you'll have to forgive their special effects.

Comedy. I hate Horror. My idea of entertainment isn't to have the sh!t scared out of me thanks. :bored:

CharlieO 14-05-2011 09:34 AM

I cant handle horror films so id have to choose comedy but i hate comedy films as well.

MTVN 14-05-2011 09:34 AM

I love comedy films, horrors are alright but I dont really watch them that much

Lee. 14-05-2011 09:36 AM

Neither.

I like some comedy, particularly black comedy, but in general I prefer dramas/thrillers

Pyramid* 14-05-2011 09:43 AM

Horror out of the two.

I love really well thought out horrors (not of the Zombies type thing), psychological thriller types / dramas. Like comedies that but not when they are of the slapstick stupid comedy.

Lee. 14-05-2011 09:44 AM

Morning Pyramid.. good holiday? :D

Stu 14-05-2011 09:58 AM

Comedy. Horrors don't scare me and what's usually left nine times out of ten is just a recycled idea forced into a terrible film with naff acting and more cliches than you can shake a stick at.

I'd rather laugh at things. Comedy has a much better social element that I value, sharing and repeating quotes ad nauseum etc. I mean entertainment wise there's just no comparison for me. Especially when watching a film in groups. I'm surprised horror has so many votes.

Vicky. 14-05-2011 09:59 AM

Love both.

Just wish I could find a horror that actually scares me

Very good morning to you Happy! How's you doing toots?

I did thank you! Even despite some bad weather, it was fab, just fab.

and to answer your next question....no I didn't !!! :devil:

Watched a cracking thriller one night on hols- half cut, it was really good and damned if I can recall the name of it now as I'd have liked to have watched it when I was compos mentus!

Jesus Claudia! I found that film to be sh!t.

Ooo Horrors.. I like films like The Shining, Scream, Misery!

Vampire films too.. like From dusk till dawn and Near Dark.

Beastie 14-05-2011 10:37 AM

Although I do like comedy.. like.. American Pie, Ace Ventura etc..

Or family films that everyone can relate to! Home, Alone, Matilda, Disney films like The Lion King.

Ooo The Labyrinth too :love:

Vampire films are one of my favs too. Loved From Dawn till dusk with it's mixture! Brilliant.

also love the more 'darker' Vampire movies. *licks lips*

Suze 14-05-2011 11:20 AM

I suppose you can like both in almost equal measure, as some B horrors are so watchable because they are so bad and thus pure comedy :joker: I chose horror in the poll though, although I prefer a good action film and thriller, love who dun its, James Bond, and most Bruce Willis films.
