Apparently I can’t stay awake for horror movies

Tonight we watched Infested (2023 French film) and I fell asleep. It was neither scary nor funny to me. Do I have terrible taste in movies?!?! I just find the horror movies we’ve watched recently to be too predictable. I like it when they scare me.

No, there’s nothing wrong with your taste. We all like what we like.

A lot of modern horror movies have become pretty predictable.

But I love all kinds of horror movies. Like even Z grade ones where you can tell they put paint on the zombie’s faces. :joy:

lol! At least the ones where you see the paint are supposed to be funny anywhere, or at least that’s the impression I get

Haha!

Oh yeah. I kind of miss that era in horror where everyone was just trying to kind of have a fun time.

I think that’s one of the pitfalls of so many modern horror movies. I feel after “Hereditary” came out everyone is just trying to top that, or make another possession movie with a little kid or something.

There are some people out there though who are still making the fun ones. You just gotta dig a little deep. Tubi TV is a free app and a really good resource for free movies.

I highly recommend “Redneck Zombies.” :wink:

Oh it’s hilarious! :joy:

You can tell they just had a blast making it. And the director went on to do special effects make-up for Troma Film Studios! :smiley:

I loved horror movies earlier in life.

Youre right though,the genre has gone so far downhill.

To be honest thought I don’t enjoy movies much at all anymore more into music/YouTube/social media

lately i cant even stay on the couch long enough to watch a movie or show with family. either have to head to my room to lay down and come back or figure i could do something more engaging than watching a movie, like video games

French films generally have slower pacing than ours. At least they used to, no idea if things have changed in the last 10 years!

I think the only foreign horror movies I’ve seen are Japanese ones. Specifically one about a giant evil bunny that was pretty good.

I looked it up, it’s called “Tormented.”

Here’s another real fun one. I thought Nicolas Cage was hilarious in it, and there’s not much gore or violence.

No, it just wasn’t a very good film. I also keep falling asleep while watching The Marvels, which is even worse. Haven’t been able to finish that one yet.

I have to have already seen the horror movie if I can watch it…namely. “halloween one”, “the matrix” (I think it’s scary because it’s so close to my delusions), not many other horror movies I watch.
