I used to love gore movies but mainly because the blood and guts looks so phony and it was fun to look for ways they were going to make stuff look gross. Now with all the computer animation and high tech special effects it's almost too gross. Plus, you never really thought some creepy kid would grow up to stalk camp counselors or that some nightmare would come to life in your head, but movies that come so close to reality that it makes you wonder if they really could happen really fuck with my head.
Having said that, the original Hills Have Eyes scared the piss out of me and after seeing the remake last year I told Randy that he'd have to fly me to the Phoenix forum because I was not about to make that drive through the desert alone.
