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 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

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.

Neither.

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

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.

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.

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 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.
